Lyrics of Quel sorriso in volto - Modà

Quel sorriso in volto (original)

Lei sudava sotto tutti quegli strati del suo abito
Lui guidava, sguardo fisso sull’asfalto, la sua Cadillac
Con Las Vegas alle spalle ed una meta ancora incognita
Si diceva che eran pazzi e si baciavan sui metrò
Per poi litigare ancora e darsi un altro abbraccio
Ignoravano la gente che rideva sempre un po'
Quando si vestivano da sposi un giorno sì e uno no
Quando lei piangeva e lui cantava un pezzo malinconico
Stranamente le tornava all’improvviso come sempre
Quel sorriso in volto
Fermi ai bordi della strada lui insultava la sua Cadillac
Lei si allontanava in abito da sposa dalla macchina
«Amore mio dove stai andando» la rincorse e l’abbracciò
Poi la prese in braccio e proseguì verso il deserto
Chi li ha visti allontanarsi è un camionista di New York
Disse che quell’uomo strano le parlava e invece no
Di sicuro le cantava quel suo pezzo malinconico
Disse infatti che la donna lo guardava stranamente
Col sorriso in volto
E ignoravano la gente che rideva sempre un po'
Quando si vestivano da sposi un giorno si e uno no
Quando lei piangeva e lui cantava un pezzo malinconico
Stranamente le tornava all’improvviso come sempre
Quel sorriso in volto
Stranamente le tornava all’improvviso come sempre
Quel sorriso in volto

(translation)

She was sweating under all those layers of her dress
He was driving his Cadillac, his eyes fixed on the asphalt
With Las Vegas behind us and a still unknown destination
It was said that they were crazy and kissed on the subway
To then fight again and give each other another hug
They ignored the people who always laughed a little
When they dressed as newlyweds every other day
When she cried and he sang a melancholy piece
He strangely he came back suddenly as always
That smile on his face
Standing at the side of the road he was cursing his Cadillac
She walked away from the car in her wedding dress
"My love, where are you going" he ran after her and hugged her
He then he took her in his arms and went on towards the desert
Whoever saw them go is a truck driver from New York
She said that the strange man spoke to her but he didn't
Certainly he sang that melancholy piece to her
In fact, she said that the woman was looking at him strangely
With a smile on his face
And they ignored the people who always laughed a little
When they dressed as newlyweds every other day
When she cried and he sang a melancholy piece
Strangely, he suddenly came back to her as always
That smile on his face
Strangely, he suddenly came back to her as always
That smile on his face
