Lyrics and translation Mina - Come se io fossi lì

Come se io fossi lì

Ma che notte questa notte
Di una quiete micidiale
Notte appesa a una finestra
Notte di valigie e di zanzare
Notte sopra un mare calmo
Costellato di lampare
Notte sopra un aeroplano
Che chissà dove può andare
Forse dove tu sarai
Forse da lì mi sentirai
E proprio mentre guardi il cielo
Questo canto arriverà
E passerà sulle montagne
Dai satelliti lassù
Dentro la tua radiolina
E penserai, "Sei proprio tu
Sei proprio tu
Sei proprio tu"
E così, quasi come se io fossi lì
Come se cantassi un po′ per te
E provassi a dirti tutto quello che c'è in me di te, di me
E così, quasi come se io fossi lì
E come se cantassi un po′ per te
E provassi a dirti tutto quello che c'è in me di te, di me
E così, quasi come se io fossi lì
Come se cantassi un po' per te
E provassi a dirti tutto quello che c′è in me di te, di me
E così, quasi come se io fossi lì
È come se cantassi un po′ per te
E provassi a dirti tutto quello che c'è in me di te, di me, di te

As If I Were There

Oh, what a night this is,
So deathly still and quiet.
A night hung from a window,
A night of suitcases and mosquitoes.
A night upon a calm sea,
Studded with lightning flashes.
A night above an airplane,
That who knows where it could go.
Perhaps where you will be,
And perhaps you’ll hear me from there.
And as you gaze up at the sky,
This song will arrive,
And will pass over the mountains,
From the satellites up there,
Into your little radio,
And you'll think, “It's you,
It's you,
It's you.”
And so, almost as if I were there,
As if I were singing a little something for you,
And tried to tell you all that's in me about you, about me.
And so, almost as if I were there,
And as if I were singing a little something for you,
And tried to tell you all that's in me about you, about me.
And so, almost as if I were there,
As if I were singing a little something for you,
And tried to tell you all that’s in me about you, about me.
And so, almost as if I were there,
It’s as if I were singing a little something for you,
And tried to tell you all that's in me about you, about me, about you.
