Ho Capito Che Ti Amo

I realized that I love you
When I saw that it was enough
For you to be late
To feel indifference vanish in me
To fear that you wouldn't come anymore.

I realized that I love you
When I saw that it was enough
For a phrase from you
To make an evening
Like any other
Begin to magically light up.

And to think that not long before,
Talking to someone,
I had started saying that by now
I wouldn't believe in love anymore
Wouldn't delude myself and dream.

And then
I realized that I love you,
And it was already too late to turn back.
For a while, I searched in myself
For indifference,
Then I let myself go into love.

For a while, I searched in myself for indifference
Then, then I let myself go into love.
