I HAD A WOOD
I’m here to walk along this tortuous path
Which crosses my wood, my heart the same old wound
Here, I forget the reasons, find some new solutions…
I’m here and still feel bonds among these trunks
The rays of sun filtrate across the branches
I find again my breaths contained the leaves of chestnut trees…
I swear, I hate without restraint, I lose without shame just the blame
I pray, I play without cheating, I love without claiming, claiming pledge…
I can still hear my voice, calling Larry, my little Joni
We run away from boars, I remember the fear, their tails wagging
My laughs when we three took the bath…
I swear, I hate without restraint, I lose without shame just the blame
I pray, I play without cheating, I love without claiming …
I’ve scratched my knee in the same blackberries bush
I’ve sketched your face but it’s vanished completely at dusk
Now I’m ready to leave here the illusion of you…
I swear, I hate without restraint, I lose without shame just the blame
I pray, I play without cheating, I love without claiming … I love without claiming
I swear, I hate without restraint, I lose without shame just the blame
I pray, I play without cheating, I love …
I had a wood

A PERFECT LIFE
Emma is sleeping, Michael’s smoking
His day begins early in the morning…
He sips a damn hot café, the brand of his cigarette
Catches fire as at dawn the colours of the sky…
the colours of this sky… Switch on A Perfect life (twice)
Emma trains the foals, trying to teach them…
Good manners as she does with her kids…
kisses and sweet caresses, pushes and nudges just to cow
for lunch two quick sandwiches in the shade of the wise poplar…
the shade of this poplar … Brings up A Perfect life …
P-P-P Perfect life…
On this carousel going round and round in circles,
Lights, shades, sounds, colors, horses and carriages
You realize that all these things go around you, around you
Givin' a sense to life... This is your Perfect life
P-P-P Perfect life…
Nathan is taking the box of pastels
He’s drawn two daddies along the fences,
Evan is kneading cement…
The old Great Dane Tenerife, is rolling in the grass and Evan smiles
The scent of the fresh mint… the scent of this fresh mint…
Smell of a Perfect Life (twice)
On this carousel going round and round in circles,
Lights, shades, sounds, colors, horses and carriages
You realize that all these things go around you, around you
Givin' a sense to life... This is your Perfect life
P-P-P Perfect life…P-P-P Perfect life... A PERFECT LIFE

YALLAH
She’s going out to meet the gaze of a man, who once loved her
Instead she’ll find a knife that will take her life, slit her throat
She’s scared, She’s trying to escape from your firm grip
She’s crying whereas, a few moments before, she’s dancing/ Now
Her heart is beating to the rhythm of the stars… In your nightmare
Yallah Yahalalala, Yallah Yahalallalla Yallah Yahalalala …lalala
Yallah Yahalalala, Yallah Yahalallalla Yallah Yahalalala …lalala
She has believed in your words, in your hands, in your eyes
And you instead you‘ve taken away her dreams, her smiles
She’s scared, She’s trying to escape your killing spree, screaming
as loud as she can she’s lifeless now but She
will keep on dancing to the rhythm of the stars… In your nightmare
Yallah Yahalalala, Yallah Yahalallalla Yallah Yahalalala …lalala
Yallah Yahalalala, Yallah Yahalallalla Yallah Yahalalala …lalala
Life is sacred: don’t waste it!
Breathe, Listen, Learn, Think, Read, Travel, Sing, Laugh,
Play, Run, Swim, Jump, Taste, Dream, Paint, Dance,
respect, love, love, love…
Respect and love, respect and love, respect and love, respect and love…
Yallah Yahalalala, Yallah Yahalallalla Yallah Yahalalala …lalala

ON AND ON
I’ve changed thousand times my way, thousand times I’ll change
on and on, on and on
I’ve been wrong lots of times, lots of times I’ll go wrong
on and on, on and on
On and on move on… going on your song
Your song…
I’ve left hundreds of trees behind, hundreds of trees I’ll leave
on and on, on and on
I’ve cried rivers of tears, rivers of tears I’ll cry
On and on, on and on
On and on move on… don’t give up your song
your song…
On and On
I will learn a new lesson, a new song
On and On
I will keep on singing and playing wrong
All of this will find a sense
when you are about to end… your song
I’ve loved in different ways, in different ways I’ll love
On and on, on and on
I’ve lost millions of chance and still millions of chance I’ll loose
On and on, on and on
on and on move on, sing out loud your song
On and On
I will learn a new lesson, a new song
On and On
I will keep on singing and playing wrong
All of this will find a sense
when you are about to end… your song
On and On
I will learn a new lesson, a new song
On and On
I will keep on living and choosing wrong
All of this will find a sense
when you are about to end… your life

NUDA
Qui, è notte fonda e sono qui, con la chitarra sul mio letto
perché dormire… non ci riesco
Qui, è buio pesto dentro me, la luce in fondo è solo musica, musica…
Nasce un altro giorno all’orizzonte squarcia il cielo, nero
E chissà se il tempo si accorgerà di me
e chissà se il vento porterà via con sé
questo mio tormento che come un mostro corre dentro
sbranando il cuore e il suo lamento
mi lascia stanca e nuda…
Qui questi silenzi pieni di… parole mute ed emozioni
che poi diventano canzoni
Nasce un altro giorno all’orizzonte squarcia il cielo, nero
E chissà se il tempo si accorgerà di me
e chissà se il vento porterà via con sé
questo mio sgomento che come un pazzo urla dentro
menando il cuore controvento
mi lascia livida e nuda…
E chissà se il tempo si accorgerà di me
e chissà se il vento porterà via con sé
questo amore intenso che come fuoco brucia dentro
e che consuma sentimento
mi lascia sola e nuda….
sola e nuda… ah…
mi lascia sola e nuda.

ABISSI
Trema il mare, sotto il cielo, nubi viola
Soffia il vento, spuma argento,
onde si increspano...
oh oh oh oh
Fluttua l’ombra nel tuo sguardo
Lontani ricordi
Danza il plancton fluorescente,
lumi si accendono...
oh oh oh oh
Abissi del cuore
Negli occhi tuoi mi tufferò
Le tue lacrime sapide bevo
Abissi del cuore
La tua anima io toccherò
Nei silenzi di luce sprofondo
oh oh oh oh
Brucia il sale lento mare plasma il vetro
Scalda il sole un nuovo amore infuoca l’arena
Aria, buio, onde, spuma,
Storia antica, Mare vita vita vita....
Abissi del cuore
Negli occhi tuoi mi tufferò
Le tue lacrime sapide bevo
Abissi del cuore
La tua anima io toccherò
Nei silenzi di luce sprofondo

A-R-I-A- The Breath of Earth-
I’m that glow before sunrise
I’m that thrill behind the scenes
I’m that heartbeat in the womb
I’m that breeze beneath the wings
I breathe…
I’m that smile of victory
I’m that strength, that energy
That doesn’t know the surrender
I’m the shiver of a challenge
The Breath of Earth
I’m that glow, I’m that thrill, I’m that heartbeat, I’m that breeze
I’m that smile, I’m that strength, I’m what’s called pure energy
I’m that charm, I’m that spark, I’m the beauty, I’m that jolt
I’m that wind, I’m that wave You feel inflating all your lungs
Breath … ARIA- ARIA-------- (coro)
Breath … ARIA- ARIA-------- (coro)
Breath … ARIA- ARIA--------(coro)
Breath Breath … ARIA- ARIA-----(coro)
I’m the charm of mystery
I’m that spark of madness
I’m the beauty of eternity
I’m that jolt before a kiss
The Breath of Earth

AWARE - from little girl to woman
Aware, aware, aware of my mistakes, they are all paid
of every step, of every choice for which I have gone all the way
Aware, aware, aware of what the truth is, where’s the deceipt...
Of what means need to feed the cunning while you are losing the naivety
Like a flower that's just blossomed
I, I perfume of joy, of life, of colors, of sun I'll not let my petals, spread in the wind, the wind of indifference
I will fight for rights as a woman,
Mother of a new world open to the
beauty of diversity, uniqueness
Free and aware
Aware, aware, aware of my mistakes, they are all paid
of every step, of every choice for which I have gone all the way
Aware, aware, aware of what the truth is, where’s the deceipt...
Of what means need to feed the cunning while you are losing the naivety
Like a butterfly just out of its cocoon, I, I hear the voices of the women
who preceded me I feel their strength, The spirits leave their trails, of energy of actions they have pursued, I will be the mother of all their fights
supported by them I’ll learn how to fly
free and aware
Aware, aware, aware that all mistakes must be paid
for of every step, of every choice for which I will go all the way
Aware, aware, aware of what the truth is, where’s the deceipt...
Of what means need to feed the cunning while you are losing the naivety
Aware, aware, aware of how important it is just a...
A simple gesture of humanity in a world with no more family
Aware, aware, aware of empty promises, false flattery
that all that matters is your integrity, you have to protect your identity

PASTA PIZZA MANDOLINO
An English man wants a sandwich
Two slides of bread with ham and cheese
Seeing his face he seems so sad
So I propose some spaghetti…?!
He has to go back to his work
Don’t need the parmigiano and the fork?!
A panino and a cappuccino… “you’re welcome, sir!”
A French lady wants a niçoise
She's wearing a scent of fresh framboise
I think She needs something gourmand
So I propose a piatto di lasagne
She looks at my hips, horrified
I understand: ok it's fine!
Un'insalata mista per la signora! “uhhh madame…”
Yes, we travel, we study and dream America,
But wherever we go around the world
we are still
PASTA PIZZA MANDOLINO (3v)
and UN BICCHIERE DI BUON VINO
A Spanish guy wants just a pie
Maybe he’s got little money
I know He loves my sweet milk fried
I put some of these on a tray
He looks at my tits greedily
You are too young to do this things
Una torta di mele al tavolo 3! “Y un vaso de leche”
Yes, we travel, we study and dream America,
But wherever we go around the world
we are still
PASTA PIZZA MANDOLINO (3v)
and UN BICCHIERE DI BUON VINO

l’universo
Ed ho chiesto un milione di volte all’universo
il permesso di essere me stessa,
Ad ogni volto che incontro di disegnare il mio,
Ad ogni mondo che scontro chi sono io
E se qualcuno mi riconosce,
ma non succede... non succede da molto tempo
E così fuggo via, fuggo via da questa storia che non è la mia
È così che vado via da un’altra delle mie mille vite in cui mi invento,
e mi confondo e un po’ mi perdo e poi mi impongo di rimanere qui...
Qui mi tremano le mani, paura del domani non me ne resta più
Qui compongo ancora brani
li sento e li contendo con tutto ciò che so...
E poi rileggo un’infinità di volte gli aforismi pieni di: sii te stessa...
Io, che non conosco limiti, esco dai margini...
Io, che riesco a malapena a suonare questa sera
in cui mi invento, e mi confondo e un po’ mi perdo e poi mi impongo di rimanere qui...
Qui mi tremano le mani paura del domani non me ne resta più
Qui compongo ancora brani
li sento e li contendo con tutto ciò che so...
Li sento e li contendo...
Con l’universo immenso... che vivo qui con te ...

Volver

VOLVER
Y me encuentro sola aquì
yo perdì el camino, y el mi destino
Y no puedo recordar
porque estoy aquì, sin ningùn sentir
Solo sé qué duele
sin saber qué hacer más
ir, salir o, o… volver… e…
Llevo bolsas sobre mis hombros
están llenas de vidas
que he vivido sin excusas
Solo se que ahora
estan muy pesadas
para ir, salir o o...
Volver es una dulce emoción
Es un halago para tu pensar
Volver, volver…
Arriesgada tentación
de rendirse y dejarse vivir
Esperaré a que salga el sol
Dormiré otra vez
entre mi "pasará".
Solo se que ahora
Estoy lista y sola
para ir, salir y no
Volver es una dulce emoción
Es un halago para tu pensar
Volver, volver…
Arriesgada tentación
de rendirse y dejarse vivir
