Malaterra (bad land)

If I see you, my heart starts beatingAnd I don't know how to make it stopBecause you are .. you are the loveThat I only find hereWith my open eyes, I tryed to ring youDay and night (and evening)And I was watching you without being able(or allowed) to touch youYou dark Malaterra

I would like to stay here foreverJust in order to cuddle youThose alleys that go downLike a woman's hairTo kiss youAs if you were my momTo taste this saltThat I can't find in another cityTell me whyWhen I'm with youI go back to being a childAnd I feel the warmth in my soulI don't make it to understandIf I see you sufferMalaterra, if they hurt youI feel like dying

You made lot of people write songsEven the ones who can't read or playYou made lot of poets come upWho made everyone singAnd even if I am far awayI am NapolitanBecause I am the son of this seaI am Malaterra and love

I would like to be here foreverOnly watchingWhen the sun caresses these housesAnd the prostitutes fall asleepThis sky thereI don't find it in another cityThis moon is coveredAnd the cold that can't scratchBefore dyingJust make me feelThat this fire doesn't burn the hopeOf these children to growYou, slave to yourselfA queen to meMalaterra you are sugared tearsAnd I know whyEven for me
