Libera – Free
“Ti voglio proteggere,”
mi hai detto.
“Ti voglio mia per sempre”
mi hai detto
“Ti voglio dare un futuro”
mi hai detto.
Avrei preferito
“Vuoi che ti protegga?”
“Vuoi essere mia?”
“Vuoi un futuro con me?”
Magari mi sarei sentita più me.
Magari mi sarei sentita più forte.
Magari mi sarei sentita più tua.
Magari mi sarei sentita più libera.
“I want to protect you,”
you told me.
“I want you mine forever”
you told me
“I want to give you a future”
you told me.
I would have preferred
“Do you want me to protect you?”
“Do you want to be mine?”
“Do you want a future with me?”
Maybe I would have felt more like myself.
Maybe I would have felt stronger.
Maybe I would have felt more yours.
Maybe I would have felt freer.
