It 'a song that speaks of a relationship ended, and speaks of the moment, any time of day, yet you think your partner, although this is no more.
It 'a very special song, the words are almost obsessive, the voice of Battisti, at the beginning, you can hardly hear, then, continues growing in a crescendo, and us, that we listen, we want this song does not end up more ...
I found, thanks to a Greek user of YouTube, a video with text translated in 3 languages...
I did not know that Italian music, was so popular that in Greece, a country near Italy, with a culture very similar to the Italian, but with a totally different language, let's see that video, with Lyrics in Italian, and translated in English and Greek languages: ...
Lyrics: 'E Penso a Te' by Battisti:
Io lavoro e penso a te
I work and I thinkof you
Εργάζομαι και σε σκέφτομαι
torno a casa e penso a te
come back home and I think of you
επιστρέφω σπίτι και σε σκέφτομαι
le telefono e intanto penso a te
I call her, and think of you
την παίρνω τηλέφωνο, και σκέφτομαι εσένα
(παίρνει τηλέφωνο την άλλη, και καθώς της μιλάει σκέφτεται αυτήν)
Come stai e penso a te
How are you, and I think of you
τι κάνεις και σε σκέφτομαι
dove andiamo e penso a te
Where are we going, and I think of you
που θα πάμε και σε σκέφτομαι
le sorrido abbasso gli occhi e penso a te
I smile to her with my eyes down, and think of you
της χαμογελάω, χαμηλώνω το βλέμμα και σε σκέφτομαι
Non so con chi adesso sei
I dont know with who you're now
Δεν ξέρω με ποιον είσαι τώρα
non so che cosa fai
I dont know what are you doing
δεν ξέρω τι κάνεις
ma so di certo a cosa stai pensando
but I know for sure what are you thinking of
αλλα ξέρω σίγουρα τι σκέφτεσαι
E' troppo grande la città
The town is too big
Η πόλη είναι πολύ μεγάλη
per due che come noi
for the two people, that like us
για δυο σαν και εμάς
non sperano però si stan cercando... cercando...
dont hope but are seekng each other.. seeking
δεν ελπίζουν αλλά ψάχνουν ο ένας τον άλλον...ψάχνουν...
Scusa è tardi e penso a te
Sorry it's late and I think of you
Συγνώμη είναι αργά και σκέφτομαι εσένα
ti accompagno e penso a te
I follow you and I think of you
σε συνοδεύω (π.χστο σπίτι σου) και σκέφτομαι εσένα
non son stato divertente e penso a te
I havent been amisuing and I think of you
δεν ήμουν διασκεδαστικός και σκέφτομαι εσένα
Sono al buio e penso a te
I'm in the dark and I think of you
Είμαι στο σκοτάδι και σκέφτομαι εσένα
chiudo gli occhi e penso a te
I close my eyes and I think of you
κλείνω τα μάτια και σκέφτομαι εσένα
io non dormo e penso a te.......
I dont sleep and I think of you
εγώ δεν κοιμάμαι και σκέφτομαι εσένα
