Habanera - Gianmaria Testa

Quante vite hai?

Te ne ho trovata una che non andava e l’ho nascosta

Così che nessuno abbia mai niente

Niente da ridire su di noi

Quante vite hai

Da regalarti così al primo, al primo ch'é venuto

All’ultimo arrivato, a questo sogno stonato

Che ti ha portata via

Quante vite hai?

É tanto tempo che ti aspetto, non arrivavi mai

E non ricordo più se sei tu che sei venuta o sono io

Valigia vuota e troppe cose da vedere

Le braccia aperte e gli occhi no

Quante vite hai

E quanta strada, fatta di notte senza lampioni

A rotoloni

Quante vite hai

Fra quelle dita, una ti sfugge e la rincorri

É già passata

Quante vite hai?

Magari domani sorridendo mi racconterai

Non é mai stato vero niente io sono io

Valigia piena e poche cose da vedere

Con gli occhi aperti, le braccia no

How many lives do you have?

I found you one that was wrong and I hid it

So that no one ever has anything

Nothing to complain about us

How many lives do you have

To give yourself to the first one, to the first one who came

To the latest arrival, to this out of tune dream

That took you away

How many lives do you have?

I've been waiting for you for a long time, you never came

And I don't remember anymore if it's you who came or it's me

Empty suitcase and too many things to see

Arms open and eyes not

How many lives do you have

And how much road, made at night without street lamps

In rolls

How many lives do you have

Between those fingers, one escapes you and you run after it

She has already passed

How many lives do you have?

Maybe tomorrow smiling you will tell me

Nothing was ever true I am me

Full suitcase and few things to see

With your eyes open, your arms don't
