Bastava

(original)
Un sorriso di ritorno per rispondere a un sorriso
Bastava
Uno spazio condiviso ma nessun’altare d’oro
Bastava
Nella stanza di un albergo d’Europa si potrebbe andare avanti a parlare o si
gioca
o scambiamoci uno schiaffo di pace
vince il primo che si arrende, si offende lo dice
Come ci siamo arrivati a volerci così tanto male non so
Come ci siamo permessi di dirci che ognuno fa quello che può
Una camminata in centro in un pomeriggio bianco
Bastava
Prevedere il tuo fastidio, fare i conti sopra l’odio
Bastava
Fare a meno delle buone maniere che confondono e rubano spazio e spessore
E buttarci sotto l’acqua gelata e accettare che davvero è acqua passata
Come ci siamo arrivati a volerci così tanto male non so
Come ci siamo permessi di dirci che ognuno fa quello che può
Come ci siamo ridotti io e te
Come ci siamo permessi di dirci che ognuno fa il meglio per se
Bastava
Dire tutto anche se poco quello che capisci dopo
Bastava
Masticare le parole, rimanere in verticale
Bastava
Questa notte mi apre gli occhi e ci guarda, vede povere carezze di guerra
Questa notte mi apre gli occhi e ci guarda, vede lacrime d’argento cadere per
terra
Come ci siamo arrivati a volerci così tanto male non so
Come ci siamo permessi dirci che ognuno fa quello che può
(Bastava)
Che fa quello che può
(Bastava)
Bastava
Bastava
Bastava
Ricordati quanto bastava
Bastava
Bastava
Bastava
(translation)
A return smile to respond to a smile
It was enough
A shared space but no golden altar
It was enough
In the room of a hotel in Europe you could go on talking or yes
plays
or let's give each other a slap of peace
the first one who gives up wins, he is offended he says so
How we got to want it so badly I don't know
How dare we tell ourselves that everyone does what he can
A walk downtown on a white afternoon
It was enough
Predict your annoyance, deal with hatred
It was enough
Do without good manners that confuse and steal space and thickness
And throw ourselves under frozen water and accept that it really is water under the bridge
How we got to want it so badly I don't know
How dare we tell ourselves that everyone does what they can
How we have reduced you and me
How dare we tell ourselves that everyone does the best for themselves
It was enough
Say everything even if little what you understand later
It was enough
Chew the words, stay upright
It was enough
Tonight he opens my eyes and looks at us, sees poor war caresses
Tonight he opens my eyes and looks at us, sees silver tears falling for
earth
How we got to want it so badly I don't know
How dare we tell ourselves that everyone does what they can
(It was enough)
That he does what he can
(It was enough)
It was enough
It was enough
It was enough
Remember enough
It was enough
It was enough
It was enough
