Текст песни The Empty Bed (Io Me Ne Andrei)

Baglioni-Coggio-Ronson

Wake, reaching for yesterday
Up, washing the sleep away
My mind, thoughts of the games you play
All the time
I, roll up a cigarette
Sit down, trying hard to forget
Your face, when you turned and left me
Again.

It's not a game seeing your face on the wall
When it's only in a frame
It's not the same sleeping without you at night
Not knowing if I will again
Magic mirrors shine, memories of yesterday
When you wouldn't go and you couldn't stay
Deceitfully blind
To you wanting your way
Where will you go ? Where will you stay ? Where will you stay ?
You wouldn't say, you wouldn't say.

You've gone away
Can't help feeling sad but then I'm glad you'll realize your heartaches today
I see your eyes
Yes the eyes that used to shine with secret tears you know you always used to cry
I'll wait for tomorrow
Yes I'll wait for tomorrow
Haven't I told you ?
Just want to hold you
You know that yesterday
You took my smallest part so carelessly away
Have all your memories gone suddenly to sleep ?
Your golden head, the empty bed, the empty bed
And now there is another day
But where are you ? What can I do ?

You once said ours is terrestrial love
Such a feeling left along with your case
It's such a fight cause every window I pass
Keeps reflecting visions of your face.

Like a spider's web weaving me 'round and 'round again
Will it let go ? Can I clear my head ?
There's a thousand things, not only the empty bed
Why did you go ? Was it something I said ?
Let me clear my head, was I misled ?
I wish I was dead.

You've gone away
Can't help feeling sad but then I'm glad you'll realize your heartaches today
I see your eyes
Yes the eyes that used to shine with secret tears you know you always used to cry
I'll wait for tomorrow
Yes I'll wait for tomorrow
Haven't I told you ?
Just want to hold you
You know that yesterday
You took my smallest part so carelessly away
Have all your memories gone suddenly to sleep ?
Your golden head, the empty bed, the empty bed
And now that you have gone away
But where are you ? What can I do ?

My cigarette's gone out
It's late, there's no one about
Guess I'll try and put you right out
Of my mind.
