Testaccio Blues - Tiromancino

Non eri facile, Roberto

Eri testardo, ma eri tu

Con le tue note fermavi il tempo

Sospeso in quel Testaccio blues

Parlavi poco del futuro

E non ridevi quasi mai

Sotto il cappello lo sguardo scuro

Di chi pensa ai cazzi suoi

E se adesso sono qui

È stata un po' anche colpa tua

Perché ho capito che la musica è vita

Da allora non è più andata via

Non eri facile, Roberto

Eri testardo ma eri tu

Con le tue note resti nel vento

Sospeso in quel Testaccio Blues

You weren't easy, Roberto

You were stubborn, but it was you

With your notes you stopped time

Suspended in that Testaccio blues

You spoke little of the future

And you hardly ever laughed

Under the hat the dark look

Of those who think about their cocks

What if I'm here now

It was partly your fault too

Because I understood that music is life

She hasn't left since

You weren't easy, Roberto

You were stubborn but it was you

With your notes you stay in the wind

Suspended in that Testaccio Blues
