Lyrics by: Alfredo Lepera
 

I can guess the flickering of the lights that in the distance go marking my return.  They're the same lights that once lit, with their pale reflection, deep hours of pain  And though never wanted to come back, you always return to your first love

The old street where the echo said "yours is her life, yours is her love", under the mocking gaze of the stars that, with indifference, today see me return .

Return , with the forehead shrivelled,  the snows of time have whitened my temples. 

To feel... that life is a sigh,  that twenty years is nothing,  that the look is feverish
and wandering in the shadow,  looks for you and names you.  To live... with the soul clinged to a sweet memory  that I cry once again
