La Vita Fugge
[Music:Smirnoff,Magnani - Melody:Luppi - Lyrics:Magnani]
La vita fugge et non s'arresta una hora,
et la morte vien dietro a gran giornate,
et le cose presenti, et le passate
mi danno guerra, et le future anchora;
e 'l rimembrare et l'aspettar m'accora
or quinci or quindi, si che ' veritate,
se non ch'i' ho di me stesso pietate,
i' sarei gia di questi pensier' fora.
Tornami avanti s'alcun dolce mai
ebbe 'l cor tristo; et poi da l'altra parte
veggio fortuna in porto, et stanco omai
il mio nocchier, et rotte arbore et sarte,
e i lumi bei, che mirar soglio, spenti.
[F. Petrarca - Sonetto CCLXXII]
If I could stop time...
How many things that I would change from the past
I'd set my life right
If I could live forever
How many emotions I would learn to control
And feel what I want
Time is running too fast for me
You can't stop its course
Never surrender, I'll sleep when I'm dead
Time is moving along too fast
I can't think straight
Won't take all the time that I need
If I try I'll always be late
I wanna kill time
Win my own war to survive
Only a chance... I'd surely not fail
Time is running too fast for me
You can't stop its course
Never surrender, I'll sleep when I'm dead
Time is moving along too fast
I can't think straight
Won't take all the time that I need
If I try I'll always be late
Time is running too fast for me
You can't stop its course
Never surrender, I'll sleep when I'm dead
Time is moving along too fast
I can't think straight
Won't take all the time that I need
I'll always be late
