Quindici anni fa
Fifteen years ago
Avevo un'altra religiosità
I had a different kind of faith
Pensavo che la gente
I thought that people
Non ci capisse niente
Didn't understand a thing
In tutto quello che facevo
In everything I did
In tutto quello che pensavo
In everything I thought
Poi ho incontrato te
Then I met you
Ricordo che il tuo viso
I remember that your face
Mi ricordava qualcun altro
Reminded me of someone else
Credevo d'averti già visto
I thought I'd already seen you
Magari su un fotoromanzo
Maybe in a photo novel
E quando te l'ho detto tu ridesti molto
And when I told you, you laughed a lot
Poi tutto venne da sé
Then everything came naturally
Comunicare è facile
Communicating is easy
Facile come pensare
Easy as thinking
Quando ci si vuole capire
When you want to understand each other
E ci si lascia andare
And you let yourselves go
Ad un certo punto si comincia a vibrare
At a certain point you start to vibrate
Finché si rimane intontiti ad ascoltare
Until you remain dazed listening
L'amore
Love
Quindici anni fa
Fifteen years ago
Credevo di essere arrivato già
I thought I had already arrived
A delle conclusioni
At some conclusions
A delle spiegazioni
At some explanations
Per tutto quello che facevo
For everything I did
Per tutto quello che pensavo
For everything I thought
Poi ho incontrato te
Then I met you
E tu cambiavi sempre
And you were always changing
Dicevi che maturare
You said that maturing
Significa cambiare
Means changing
E che fermarsi infondo è come morire
And that stopping, deep down, is like dying
E lo volevi dire
And you wanted to say it
E lo volevi urlare
And you wanted to scream it
Ed io urlavo con te
And I screamed with you
Dimenticare è facile
Forgetting is easy
Basta non ricordare
Just don't remember
Si può perfino ridere
You can even laugh
Anche se tu lo facevi male
Even if you did it badly
Non ho capito cosa è successo
I didn't understand what happened
Però così non si poteva più andare
But it couldn't go on like this anymore
Cielo aperto
Open sky
Did you like this lyrics translation?
intontiti — dazed / stunned
Intontiti comes from the verb intontire, meaning to daze or stun. It's a less common, more evocative word than simply saying 'confused' or 'tired'.
In the song, it's used to describe the state of being completely absorbed and overwhelmed by love and connection: "Finché si rimane intontiti ad ascoltare L'amore" (Until you remain dazed listening to love). It beautifully captures the feeling of being utterly captivated and lost in the moment of shared understanding.
