Lyrics

Mio caro figlio, ti voglio raccontare
La storia di un uomo un po’ particolare
L’incontrai per la via, lui mi prese per mano
Io non sapevo neppur camminare
Mi disse sei bravo, mi ricordi mio padre
Lui si era un grand uomo, lui si sapeva amare
Io son niente al confronto, lasciami stare
Tu invece sei bravo non farti ingannare
I once knew a man who taught me to drive
Did not use the breaks he was stuck in 5th gear
He drove me around, in his shiny car
He never looked back always running so fast
That I’m surprised I’m still alive But on reflection maybe that’s life
You take your chances and go for a ride
And then what happens takes you by surprise
But back to this man, he taught me a few things,
I thought I was better much better than him
He walked through life like a little child
But don’t you dismiss his pain and the grief
He was a father that never grew up
He loved his son with all his heart
Last time I saw him he told me this:
I will come back that’s a promise it is, ma il
Tempo e’ sleale, non ti puoi mai fidare
E senza bussare la sua ora arrivo’
Rivedette suo padre, smise di cercare
Ma no caro figlio io resto ancora un poco qui……con te
