A Tempo Perso - Elisa

Ci vuole coraggio, paura e coraggio

Sentirsi un po' assoluti e un poco di passaggio

Forse nella notte troverò la tua stella lassù che brilla

E sembra strano ma non è strano

Speranze appese come foglie sopra un ramo

Mentre tutto tace tu ancora non dormi, aspetti i tuoi sogni

Ancora buio in giro, neanche un’anima

E sarà un incubo o sarà una favola

Qualche paura resta, sembra quasi una vecchia porta che cigola

(Cigola, cigola)

Farfalle sopra un fiore

Promesse fatte altrove

Che torneranno come (Ossigeno, ossigeno, ossigeno)

Scalavi le montagne per le strade

Speravi si avverasse anche per te

Lento, li contavi fino a tre quei pochi secondi

Solo per cambiare tutto

A tempo perso li contavi tutti e tre

E per un istante sei andato fino in fondo

A tempo perso

A tempo perso

Avevi coraggio, paura e coraggio

Ma il senso di equilibrio sembrava un miraggio

Portavi la tua vita in giro in una valigia, era meno grigia

Mettevi al bando salvavita e limiti

Il passato ti ha lasciato i lividi

E in guerra vale tutto, buio e luce

Mi dicevi siamo nati liberi (Liberi, liberi)

Farfalle sopra un fiore

Promesse fatte altrove

Che torneranno come (Ossigeno, ossigeno, ossigeno)

Scalavi le montagne per le strade

Speravi si avverasse anche per te

Santo, li contavi fino a tre quei pochi secondi

Solo per cambiare il mondo

A tempo perso li contavi tutti e tre

E per un istante sei andato fino in fondo

A tempo perso

A tempo perso

A tempo perso

A tempo perso

Perso

Scalavi le montagne per le strade

Ci fosse stato un posto anche per te

Lento, li contavi fino a tre quei pochi secondi

Solo per cambiare tutto

A tempo perso

A tempo perso

A tempo perso

A tempo perso

Perso

It takes courage, fear and courage

Feeling a little bit absolute and a little bit passing

Maybe in the night I'll find your star up there that shines

And it sounds weird but it's not weird

Hopes hanging like leaves on a branch

While everything is silent you still do not sleep, you wait for your dreams

Still dark around, not even a soul

And it will be a nightmare or it will be a fairy tale

Some fear remains, it almost seems like an old door creaking

(Squeak, squeak)

Butterflies above a flower

Promises made elsewhere

That will come back as (Oxygen, oxygen, oxygen)

You climbed mountains on the streets

You were hoping it would come true for you too

Slow, you counted them to three those few seconds

Just to change everything

In your spare time you counted all three

And for a moment you went all the way

In my spare time

In my spare time

You had courage, fear and courage

But the sense of balance seemed like a mirage

You carried your life around in a suitcase, it was less gray

Outlawed lifesavers and limits

The past has left you bruised

And in war, everything is valid, dark and light

You told me we were born free (Free, free)

Butterflies above a flower

Promises made elsewhere

That will come back as (Oxygen, oxygen, oxygen)

You climbed mountains on the streets

You were hoping it would come true for you too

Holy, you were counting them down to three those few seconds

Just to change the world

In your spare time you counted all three

And for a moment you went all the way

In my spare time

In my spare time

In my spare time

In my spare time

Lost

You climbed mountains on the streets

There was a place for you too

Slow, you counted them to three those few seconds

Just to change everything

In my spare time

In my spare time

In my spare time

In my spare time

Lost
