Translation of the song lyrics Gardenia - Riccardo Fogli

Gardenia (original)

So chi sei e quanto hai sbagliato, lo so
so che vuoi cambiare vita ormai,
ti aiuter?
perch?
io credo in te
e senza un uomo che ti dia una mano
non ce la fai, cos?
indifesa come sei
non?
bello, mia Gardenia,
mentre sale su la luna
che tu mi parli e dica la tua pena.
Quanta gente hai conosciuto,
ma nessuno si?
fermato
chi ha capito mai che donna sei.
Vuoi mangiarlo un po' di pane
fatto d’acqua sale e grano,
cose semplici, ma buone come te

(translation)

I know who you are and how wrong you are, I know
I know you want to change your life now,
will it help you?
why?
I believe in you
and without a man to give you a hand
you can't do it, cos?
helpless as you are
not?
beautiful, my Gardenia,
as the moon rises
that you speak to me and say your pain.
How many people have you met,
but no one?
stopped
who has ever understood what a woman you are.
You want to eat some bread
made of water, salt and wheat,
simple things, but as good as you are
