Water And Snow

He watches her from a distance and remembers her waiting for the train to Bologna at seven a.m.
She’s talking with her lady friends about too long days and about vacations to do without fail
He searches in his pockets for the reason and the courage to go and say: how are you?
She knows him, and knows well that he has never had any courage at all
 
He spends his days looking on the road for something that doesn’t exist
She keeps on building bright and conceited universes
 
A man and a woman, close and distant,
Count the days that pass in front of them
And pick up in turns an old wonder
Look, how beautiful the sunshine is
 
He, who was seen gazing at the panoramic wheel on the Canal Harbor,
Is always there waiting, waiting to see her turning around
And she, who passed by there and, as usual, didn’t turn around,
Said: 'Look out, if you turn around even for a moment, then it's all over'
 
And when, when did it happen that the water turned into snow?
(And when, when did it happen that the water turned into snow?)
And when, when did it happen that the water turned into snow?
 
A man and a woman, close and distant,
Count the days that pass in front of them
And pick up in turns an old wonder
Look, how beautiful the sunshine is
