Ore che lente e inesorabili
Attraversano il silenzio del mio cielo
Per poi nascondersi ad un tratto
Dietro nuvole che straziano il sereno
Sentirle riaffiorare quando tutto
Sembra aver trovato il giusto peso
Aver la voglia di rubarle al tempo
Per potergli dare tutto un altro senso
Distratto, stupido e testardo
Come sempre provo a farlo
Ho deciso di fermarlo
Per poterti avere ancora
Non dire una parola
Sperando che non se ne accorga
Ho strappato via anche l'ultima mezz'ora
Pensando che sia l'unica maniera
Per sentirti qui vicino ancora
Sempre più stupido e testardo
Come sempre torno a farlo
E di nuovo per fermarlo
E poterti dire ancora

Tra nuvole e lenzuola
Non farlo per un'ora
Non farlo mai per ora
E stringimi allora
Tra nuvole e lenzuola
Non dire una parola
Non dire una parola
Non dire una (non dire una, non dire una, non dire una)

Ore, che lente e inossidabili
Attraversano il silenzio del mio cielo
E si nascondono ad un tratto
Dietro nuvole che straziano il sereno
Le senti riaffiorare quando tutto
Tutto sembra aver trovato il giusto peso
Aver la voglia di rubarle al tempo
Per potergli dare ancora un altro senso ancora

Stringimi allora
Tra nuvole e lenzuola
Non dire una parola
Non farlo mai per ora
Abbracciami ancora
Tra nuvole e lenzuola
Non dire una parola
Non dire una parola
Non dire una parola

Ore che lente e inossidabili (non dire una parola)
Attraversano il silenzio del mio cielo (non dire una parola)
E si nascondono ad un tratto (non dire una parola)
Dietro nuvole che straziano il sereno (non dire una parola)
Le senti riaffiorare quando tutto (non dire una)
Sembra aver trovato il giusto peso
Aver la voglia di rubarle al tempo
Per potergli dare ancora un altro senso ancora

    The lyrics lose a little something in translation and may not make too much sense, but I think this song is about a couple that is growing apart, and he desperately wants to enjoy the last moments as much as possible, delaying a breakup and drawing out the remaining time they have together.

    Negramaro is awesome, and you should definitely check out this album, called Mentre Tutto Scorre.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
