Soltanto un gioco - Nomadi

Contava fino a venti piano piano

La faccia contro il muro del cortile

Sapeva ormai dove lei si nascondeva

Faceva finta anche di non vedere

Poi di corsa usciva dal suo posto

Ma la prendeva sempre, la stringeva

Solo un gioco sì, solo un gioco, sai

Quant’era bella

Solo un gioco, sai, solo un gioco ormai

Ma lei rideva

La bottega del paese era un bazar

Era meglio che sulle giostre

E dalle porte consumate lui guardava

Lei faceva un po' la signorina

Si girava svelta, sì

E la lingua gli mostrava

Il sorriso gli negava

Soltanto un gioco sì, soltanto un gioco, sai

Quant’era bella

Solo un gioco, sai, solo un gioco, ma…

Ma le piaceva

Un giorno uguale gli sembrava

E guardava nel cortile

C’era un camion molto grande

E degli uomini robusti

Tutta scossa nel cappotto

Stava ferma, non rideva

E guardandolo, piangendo

Ha aperto le sue mani

Solo un gioco sì, solo un gioco, sai

Ma andava via

Soltanto un gioco, sai, soltanto un gioco

Ma lui piangeva

«E' tornata!»

gli hanno detto

Quella sera i vecchi amici

Gli parlavano di lei

Come fosse la più bella

È entrata all’improvviso

Per telefonare, sì, ma lui

Ha visto i suoi occhi

Sempre quelli

Soltanto un gioco sì, solo un gioco che…

Che le piaceva

Solo un gioco, sai, solo un gioco, sì

Ma lei rideva

Lui si è messo lì vicino

«Sono arrivata, sì, sto bene

Il tempo è bello, lui rimane

Solo qualche giorno

Poi adesso è giù, ciao, ci sentiamo»

Si è girata ed il suo viso

È diventato come quando lei correva

Soltanto un gioco sì, solo un gioco, sai

Quant’era bella

Solo un gioco, sai, solo un gioco ormai

Ma lei rideva

Soltanto un gioco sì, soltanto un gioco, sai

Ma andava via

Solo un gioco, sai, solo un gioco ormai

Quant’era bella

It counted up to twenty floor plan

Face her against the courtyard wall

He now knew where she was hiding

She also pretended not to see

She then ran out of her seat

But she always took it, she held it

Just a game yeah, just a game, you know

How beautiful she was

Just a game, you know, just a game now

But she laughed

The village shop was a bazaar

It was better than on the rides

And from the worn doors he watched

She was a bit of a young lady

She turned quickly, yes

And her tongue showed him

The smile denied him

Only a game yes, only a game, you know

How beautiful she was

Just a game, you know, just a game, but ...

But she liked her

One day she seemed the same to him

And he looked into the courtyard

There was a very large truck

And strong men

All shaken in her coat

She stood still, she didn't laugh

And looking at him, crying

She opened her hands

Just a game yeah, just a game, you know

But she was leaving

Just a game, you know, just a game

But he was crying

"She's back!"

they told him

Old friends that evening

They talked to him about her

She as she was the most beautiful

She came in suddenly

To call, yes, but him

She has seen her her eyes

Always those

Only a game yes, only a game that ...

That she liked her

Just a game, you know, just a game, yeah

But she laughed

He stood nearby

“I arrived, yes, I'm fine

The weather is fine, he stays

Just a few days

Then now he's down, bye, let's talk "

She turned around and her face

It became like when she ran

Just a game yeah, just a game, you know

How beautiful she was

Just a game, you know, just a game now

But she laughed

Only a game yes, only a game, you know

But she was leaving

Just a game, you know, just a game now

How beautiful she was
