Ragazzini Per Strada

Today is a beautiful day
There's a silence on the street, it's so strange
It almost feels like Sunday
Tricked out scooters
I remember the things you used to say
I'm going to America
There's a broken traffic light
In the port area
Instead of dwelling on it
I do what I can
I take refuge in a bar with friends
Talking about another wasted grand prix

And I really believe it
It won't be like this forever

How about you?
Do you ever
Stand still without breathing
To see how the world is without you
To know if there's someone
Who comes looking for you
Because they care about you
To shout: I love you
To shout: I love you

Kids on the street playing soldiers
Stealing billions to buy ice cream
Climbing over fences, ignoring prohibitions
Chasing Jesus with a skateboard
To escape from the priests
And the evening comes to divide
Who goes home and who stays to decide
Whether to sleep or to fly
Over this stretch of sea
That's narrower than the dark alley of your home
And I really believe it
It won't be like this forever

How about you?
Do you ever
Stand still without breathing
To see how the world is without you
To know if there's someone
Who comes looking for you
Because they care about you
To shout: I love you
To shout: I I love you

Kids on the street
Playing with their lives
When it seems like it's over
Maybe it's just beginning
Today is a beautiful day
Today is a beautiful day
Today is a beautiful day
Kids on the street
Today is a beautiful day
Today is a beautiful day
