One day I cried for you,
today I thank you.

You threw me out
from where I shouldn't have been.

You made me let go
of the one I shouldn't have loved.

You pushed me
into my darkest shadows.

You confronted me
with my own wounds.

Thanks to you, I broke,
thanks to you, I discovered myself.

I felt like I was losing,
but I won.

It wasn't me
who lost.

I dedicated serenades of tears to you
to heal.

Today I'm in a better place,
thanks to you.

Today I'm better,
I'm in control of my life.

I said terrible things to you,
but today, with a calm soul,
I say: thank you.
I stayed waiting for you to call,
to solve our problems.

I stayed with my lipstick on,
waiting for you to take me to the beach.

I stayed all made up,
waiting for that romantic dinner.

The bed was completely messed up,
from that Fifty Shades of Grey night.

Everything would have been over,
if I had come closer to talk to you.

How hard expectations are.
what everyone expects,
love knocked on my door again,
for the same Italian love.

we were two teenagers,
with caresses,
giving each other love.

the resentment and suffering,
from past lives,
stayed in bed.

nights of lust and desire,
killed evils,
and healed wounds.

but there was a villain,
a ticket to Copenhagen.

everything spiritual and magnetic,
vanished into thin air,
when we saw that our futures,
were not the same.

where all the love,
the energy that emanated,
had an expiration date.

no matter how much we wanted to hold on,
no matter how much we didn't want to let go.

and no matter how much love we had,
habit and passion,
were going to hurt us.

I will never forget that goodbye,
that eternal embrace,
that melancholy.
