Dopo Lei - Domenico Modugno

Vorrei vederti

per dirti

quanto sei stata stupida

non hai capito niente

di me.

ed anch’io

ho sbagliato perche'

non ho fatto niente

per fermarti

mentre te ne andavi via

quella sera…

qui'

non si capisce piu’niente

per il disordine che c’e'

il telefono

e' al suo solito posto

e passo le ore

ad aspettare

a sperare

che mi chiami

che mi chiami.

dopo lei

il mondo si e' fermato

nei miei occhi

in quell’istante in cui

mi disse sai

da questa sera non ritornero'

ma perche'

la cena dell’amore

e' sempre pronta

solo quando

l’ospite

s’e' ne e’andato via

per sempre

e tu l’aspetti

ma non ritornera'

e nell’attesa i giorni

sono lunghi

mentre gli anni se ne volano

se ne volano.

dopo lei

un’altra donna ormai

mi vive accanto

un’altra che ha capito

tante cose

e che mi vuole bene

veramente

perche' anche se io non

dico niente

lei sa…

che penso sempre

a te.

dopo lei

io faccio finta d’essere felice

e recito la parte di qualcuno

che ha ritrovato la serenita'

ma quando sono solo

con me stesso

ho voglia di gridar

la verita'

la verita'

che io non son felice

che la mia vita

si e' spezzata in quel momento

la verita'

che amo ancora te

I would like to see you

to tell you

how stupid you were

you did not understand anything

of me.

and me too

I was wrong because

I did nothing

to stop you

as you walked away

that evening…

here'

you no longer understand anything

for the disorder that exists

the phone

it's in its usual place

and I spend the hours

to wait

to hope

you call me

you call me.

after her

the world has stopped

in my eyes

in that instant in which

she told me you know

from this evening I will not return

but why'

the dinner of love

it is always ready

only when

the guest

he went away

forever

and you are waiting for it

but it won't come back

and in the meantime the days

they are long

as the years go by

they fly away.

after her

another woman now

she lives next to me

another that she understood

many things

and that she loves me

truly

'cause even if I don't

I say nothing

she knows…

that I always think

to you.

orchestra

after her

I pretend to be happy

and I play the part of someone

who has found serenity

but when I'm alone

with myself

I want to scream

the truth'

the truth'

that I am not happy

than my life

it broke at that moment

the truth'

that I still love you
