Mina - Quand'ero piccola (English Version)





Quand'ero piccola
di Newell - Migliacci - Zambrini - Bacalov

I was a lonely child
Too frightened of the dark to fall asleep at night
Without the comfort of a little candle light
The comfort I'm in need of even now,
Even now you are by my side.
For though you hold my hand
I'll never know what dreams you dream in spite of me.
You say you love me but you never say
What dreams you dream
When I can feel your heart so far away.

Can a girl be more lonely
Than with someone who lies beside her
And never really tries to understand her?

I'm still a lonely child
Too frightened of the dark to fall asleep at night
Without the reassurance of the love
I need, I need
To chase away the darkness in my heart.

Can a girl be more lonely
Than with someone who lies beside her
And never really tries to understand her?

I was a lonely child...
I'm still a lonely child...
