L'Abitudine Di Tornare - Carmen Consoli

Tornare è un’abitudine

Per quelli come te

Sommersi e annoiati dai ritmi di sempre

Confesserai mai a tua moglie

Che sabato dormi con me

Da circa dieci anni tra alti e bassi

Ma io non posso chiedere

Io non devo chiedere

Sarai tu a rispondere se vorrai

Ma io non posso piangere

Io non devo piangere

Sarai tu a decidere se vorrai

Tornare è un’abitudine

Per quelli come te

Fedeli ancorati, all’ovile di sempre

Come dirai a tua moglie

Che hai un figlio identico a me

Ha grandi occhi neri

Ha compiuto tre anni

E' piccolo e non può chiedere

Lui non deve chiedere

Sarai tu a rispondere se vorrai

Ma lui non deve piangere

E' vergogna piangere

Sarai tu a rispondere

Se saprai

Ma io non posso chiedere

Io non devo chiedere

Sarai tu a rispondere se vorrai

Ma io non posso chiedere

Io non devo chiedere

Sarai tu a rispondere se vorrai

Sarai tu a rispondere

Sai sempre rispondere

Sarai tu a rispondere

Sai sempre rispondere

Coming back is a habit

For those like you

Overwhelmed and bored by the usual rhythms

You will never confess to your wife

May you sleep with me on Saturday

For about ten years between ups and downs

But I can't ask

I don't have to ask

You will be the one to answer if you want

But I can't cry

I don't have to cry

You will decide if you want

Coming back is a habit

For those like you

Faithful anchored, in the usual fold

How will you tell your wife

That you have a son identical to me

He has big black eyes

He turned three

He is small and he cannot ask

He doesn't have to ask

You will be the one to answer if you want

But he doesn't have to cry

He's ashamed to cry

You will be the one to answer

If you know

But I can't ask

I don't have to ask

You will be the one to answer if you want

But I can't ask

I don't have to ask

You will be the one to answer if you want

You will be the one to answer

You always know how to answer

You will be the one to answer

You always know how to answer
