THERE'S A ROSE IN THE GARDEN

There's a rose...l'ho cercata quella poesia, chissà da dove veniva, non l'ho più ritrovata...

diceva vagamente...

...there's a rose in my memory garden 

that grow because of you...

avevo anche scritto una poesia, molti anni dopo, temevo d'averla persa quella rosa...

Due gocce d'acqua bastano

per far rivivere il giardino,

due lacrime salate

nutrono la mia rosa...

c'è

esiste

basta solo

guardare bene

in quel giardino incolto,

chiudi gli occhi,

annusa...

il suo profumo

ti guiderà

da me.

...but sometimes a rose...

There's a rose in the garden
It will bloom if you're sure

That you pay close attention

but leave it room 
I know your heart can be opened

And like the rose, it will bloom

if I pay close attention

But leave you room
I'm not telling any lies now
I need you
You know how

I think I can see how to let you grow

I've got to let you go

Though that's my face in the mirror

It's sometimes you that I see

'cause we've been here for so long now

I see your soul in me

I'm not telling any lies now

I need you

You know how

I think I can see how to let you grow

I've got to let you go

I'm not telling any lies now
I need you

You know how

I think I can see how to let you grow

I've got to let you go

'cause there's a rose in the garden

It will bloom if you're sure

That you pay close attention

but leave it room
