Se Tu Fossi Qui Lyrics in English Noemi

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Se Tu Fossi Qui by Noemi from Italian to English.

If you were here

I'd be alone

And the house would have no walls anymore

If you were here

You surely wouldn't be mine

Ever

If you were here

It's not your fault

But we'd be split by silence

I remember, you know, when

I left

All the words shipwrecked

All were erased

By a sudden wind that floods this room

By a lighthouse that blinds my wonder

You vanish in bed, light as a leaf

It's the wind that now leads this dance

All our dreams overblown like

Those empty, abandoned buildings you saw

When you went to school

You're still there

We're still there

If you were here

I'd like from you

A calm that plunges from above

I danced, you know

I do it when I cheer in sadness

All the words shipwrecked

All were erased

By a sudden wind that floods this room

By a lighthouse that blinds my wonder

You vanish in bed, light as a leaf

It's the wind that now leads this dance

All our dreams overblown like

Those new yet abandoned buildings

Like all those scorched kids

Like all our overblown dreams

As if you were here

All our dreams overblown like

Those empty buildings I left behind that you saw

When you went to school

And you're still there

We're still there

SONG MEANING

Se Tu Fossi Qui spins a haunting daydream where Noemi imagines the loved one’s return and discovers that even their presence would not mend the silence between them. Walls melt away, words sink like shipwrecks, and a sudden wind rushes through the room, showing how fragile memories can be. The flashing lighthouse, the empty palaces seen on the way to school, and the leaf-light body disappearing in bed are all vivid pictures of a relationship that feels huge in emotion yet hollow in reality.

Rather than give in to pure sadness, the singer turns the ache into movement: she dances when she is exultant with sadness, craving a calm that could fall from the sky. The song reminds us that some connections stay trapped in the realm of what-ifs, leaving only abandoned dreams and echoing corridors of nostalgia. It is a bittersweet anthem for anyone who has ever wished someone were here, only to realize that presence alone cannot fill the quiet between two hearts.
