La Paura Che... Lyrics in English Tiziano Ferro

In “La Paura Che…” Tiziano Ferro turns a late–night confession into a soundtrack of emotional tug-of-war. The singer watches himself fall for someone who cannot let go of a past love, so every look and every touch feels like a beautiful mistake. Lying eyes, awkward words, and silent nights paint a picture of a relationship balanced between trust and self-deception. Fear becomes almost tangible, “wetting the eyes,” yet walking away seems impossible because the bond feels as necessary as air.

The chorus remembers that fear while secretly wishing the other person could feel it too, just to understand the ache of loving without certainty. Ferro plays with contrasts: the quick spark of passion versus the slow burn of doubt, the open door of possibility versus the door that never quite closes. Even if nothing changes, he promises to keep loving and to treasure every hug as a gift, aware that he might end up alone anyway. The song is a bittersweet lesson on how love, dependency, and fear can coexist, leaving listeners swaying between heartbreak and hope.
