Original Lyrics
Translation in Italian
verse
You leapt from crumbling bridges watching cityscapes turn to dust
Hai saltato da ponti fatiscenti, guardando le città trasformarsi in polvere
Filming helicopters crashing in the ocean from way above
Filmando gli elicotteri mentre si schiantavano nell'oceano da molto più in alto
chorus
Got the music in you, baby, tell me why
Hai la musica dentro di te piccola, dimmi il perché
Got the music in you, baby, tell me why
Hai la musica dentro di te piccola, dimmi il perché
You′ve been locked in here forever, and you just can't say goodbye
Sei stata rinchiusa qui per sempre e adesso non riesci a dire addio
verse
Kisses on the foreheads of the lovers wrapped in your arms
Baci sulle fronti degli amanti stretti fra le tue braccia
You′ve been hiding them in hollowed-out pianos left in the dark
Li hai nascosti in pianoforti svuotati lasciati nell'oscurità
chorus
Got the music in you, baby, tell me why
Hai la musica dentro di te piccola, dimmi il perché
Got the music in you, baby, tell me why
Hai la musica dentro di te piccola, dimmi il perché
You've been locked in here forever, and you just can't say goodbye
Sei stata rinchiusa qui per sempre e adesso non riesci a dire addio
bridge
Your lips, my lips
Le tue labbra, le mie labbra
Apocalypse
Apocalisse
Your lips, my lips
Le tue labbra, le mie labbra
Apocalypse
Apocalisse
hook
Go and sneak us through the rivers
Vai e facci sgattaiolare attraverso i fiumi
Flood is rising up on your knees
L'inondazione sta alzando il livello dell'acqua fino alle tue ginocchia
Oh, please
Oh, per favore
Come out and haunt me, I know you want me
Vieni fuori e cercami, lo so che mi vuoi
Come out and haunt me
Vieni fuori e perseguitami
verse
Sharing all your secrets with each other since you were kids
Condividevi tutti i tuoi segreti fra di noi da quando eravamo bambini
Sleeping soundly with the locket that she gave you clutched in your fist
Dormendo rumorosamente con il medaglione che lei ti aveva dato, stretto nel tuo pugno
chorus
Got the music in you, baby, tell me why
Hai la musica dentro di te piccola, dimmi il perché
Got the music in you, baby, tell me why
Hai la musica dentro di te piccola, dimmi il perché
You′ve been locked in here forever, and you just can′t say goodbye
Sei stata rinchiusa qui per sempre e adesso non riesci a dire addio
You've been locked in here forever, and you just can′t say goodbye
Sei stata rinchiusa qui per sempre e adesso non riesci a dire addio
outro
Oh, when you're all alone
Quando sarai tutta sola
I will reach for you
Io ti raggiungerò
When you′re feeling low
Quando ti sentirai giù
I will be there too
Anche allora sarò li
