What a joy, the night
I saw you dancing
then laughing out loud without malice
people can be feroceous if they want to be;
sarcastic, cynic, and without pity
This thing that nothing else is worth it*
to stay and think about it,
and then there's a lot of confusion
Me, I don't like it
I think that instead
Time is really precious
When I look at you
I just need to look at you
It's good news that brings happiness
There's no comparison
it's not like millions of other news will take you away
To try and be very informed
I know a bit of everything
And I forget to
Look in your eyes
Unblock my blocks
Turn up the volume and think that yes
oh yes
My girl is magical
She throws the world up and catches it on the fly
Turns an afternoon into a masterpiece
And she makes me feel good, oh yeah
When I'm with her
If you put on a colorful dress
Against the flowers, you win in my books
It's not the appearance
but the apparition
That makes you shine in front of me
You're starlight
you allow life
on my planet
everything speaks of you
The blood that sparkles,
my chlorophyll,
that runs through the wood of thousands of guitars
of thousands of violins
Played in the wind
of thousands of telephones
looking for camp
and it's better for you that, when I look at you,
you don't know that I look at you
just as if the moon knew
that we were looking at her**
she would decide those who aren't there
and strike a pose
change something
but instead she is beautiful just as she is
like she is
like she is
My girl is magical
She throws the world up and catches it on the fly
Turns an afternoon into a masterpiece
And she makes me feel good, oh yeah
When I'm with her
You inspire poets
you confuse magnets
You are mi moon
you are my goddess
That goes up and down
turns off and on
Govern love
up and down the tide
and you guide cats on rooftops to stay during the night
So then when it's daytime they seem lazy to you
But they're only tired
that all the thrill
of nights of love from little tigers
they feel happy
they fake wisdom
domestic and slow, a bit like us
that we share the same nature
wild deep down
how beautiful you are
If the fridge is a desert
you bring me out in the open
we want an apple and my hunger is gone
and when I am lost
and you don't remember me
I just need to think of you
and I'll remember where my place is
my place is you
My girl is magical
She throws the world up and catches it on the fly
Turns an afternoon into a masterpiece
And she makes me feel good when I'm with her
And she makes me feel good when I think of her
I just need to think of her
*: I would appreciate some help in translating this line, not too sure about this translation :)
**: In italian the moon is feminine, I thought it would take away from the translation to refer to the moon as "it" instead of "her". The translation for this is a bit confusing. He is saying that if she knew she was being looked at (his girl or the moon), she would change, so it's better that she's unaware he's looking at her because she's beautiful and doesn't need to change.
