Only - Lucio Battisti

Only

Only for a moment

Falling

In some other dream

Someone else beside me

Not you

Though we’re not together now

I know I’ll be

More in love with you

Like an airplane

Circling in the mist

Solitary spirals in the air

Seeking runways that we’ve missed

Nothing more to fear

We’re there

Just below the clouds

The love we have is ours to share

Something in the spring

A few short years ago

Touched us has grown and overwhelmed us

That may be why we hide

Our memories deep inside

For in the winter winds

Such little things

Will warm and reassure us

Only

But only for a moment

When least expected

Confusion

Disillusion

And at times we’re strangers

And you get lonely

Like me

It really doesn’t matter

I know it can only

Make me love you more

And you get lonely

Lonely like me

I know it can only

Make me love you more
