Valle Giulia ancora brilla la luna E Paola prende la mia mano Caduta per sbaglio sui nostri vent'anni Tesi come coltelli Come fratelli Perduti forse qui Architettura Albe cinesi di seta indiana Sarà il profumo di questa città Sarà la musica che viene da lontano Sarà l'estate che brucia nelle vene Sarà il passato che ancora mi appartiene Adesso tu sei qui Abbandonata Come se non mi avessi mai lasciato Né mai tradito Sarà la musica che viene e va Sarà il profumo di questa città Sarà l'estate che spalanca le sue braccia Sui nostri corpi come fosse una minaccia Adesso, adesso
Sarà il profumo di questa città Sarà la musica che viene da lontano Sarà l'estate che spalanca le sue braccia Sui nostri corpi come fosse una minaccia Adesso siamo qui Abbandonati Coi nostri ricordi dentro le mani Per sempre qui
What is the architect doing? He is by the riverside What is he thinking out there? He is committing egocide Now isn't that a strange thing? Well, to him it feels just Oh we guess a person's gotta do What a person feels he must
He said: I won't throw myself from the pier I'm gonna go home and shut up for a year And when the year is over I'll reappear And have a solution" I've reason to believe that what I find Is gonna change the face of humankind And all these years before, well I was blind That's my conclusion Cause I'm the architect (I feel it's touch and go) Cause I'm the architect (I feel it's touch and go) Cause I'm the architect
Now the man has understood That outerspace is overrated About all the problems on this earth we should Worry now to solve them later And so he's brooding and alluding on a perfect design He thinks that working on behalf of himself is a crime He flashes out by the water, a view so divine He's the architect of his own fate, a man in his prime
He said: I won't throw myself from the pier I'm gonna go home and shut up for a year And when the year is over I'll reappear And have a solution I've reason to believe that what I find Is gonna change the face of humankind And all these years before, well I was blind That's my conclusion Cause I'm the architect (I feel it's touch and go) Cause I'm the architect (I feel it's touch and go) Cause I'm the architect (I feel it's touch and go)
That's it, we're going to make it Don't let up
And so he drew himself a pentagon Thinking it through a geodesic dome From the coast of Tahiti to the hills of Rome Step aside cause the man will take the Nobel prize home
He said: I won't throw myself from the pier I'm gonna go home and shut up for a year And when the year is over I'll reappear And have a solution Now if these aspirations bother you Well you are just you, you don't have a clue I'm sticking to the plan, I will see it through Let there be no confusion Cause I'm the architect
