Vedrai, vedrai - You'll See, You'll See

Quando la sera me ne torno a casa non ho neanche voglia di parlare tu non guardarmi con quella tenerezza come fossi un bambino che ritorna deluso si lo so che questa non è certo la vita che hai sognato un giorno per noi vedrai, vedrai vedrai che cambierà forse non sarà domani ma un bel giorno cambierà Vedrai, vedrai non son finito sai non so dirti come e quando ma vedrai che cambierà preferirei sapere che piangi che mi rimproveri di averti delusa e non vederti sempre così dolce accettare da me tutto quello che viene mi fa disperare il pensiero di te e di me che non so darti di più vedrai, vedrai vedrai che cambierà forse non sarà domani ma un bel giorno cambierà vedrai, vedrai no, non son finito sai non so dirti come e quando ma un bel giorno cambierà. Vedrai, vedrai © 1965 Luigi Tenco In "Vedrai, vedrai," Tenco's voice communicates exquisite emotional pain, up close and personal, rendering a portrait of a relationship that was not all roses and kisses, but rather was balanced between despair and determined hope.

When I return home in the evening, I don’t have even the desire to talk. You, don’t look at me with that tenderness, as if I were a child coming back disappointed. Yes I know that this is not the life that you dreamed of one day for us. You’ll see, you’ll see, you’ll see that it will change. Maybe it won’t be tomorrow, but one fine day it will change. You’ll see, you’ll see, I’m not done, you know. I don’t know how to tell you how or when, but you’ll see that it will change. I’d prefer to know that you cry, that you blame me for having disappointed you, and not see you always so sweet, accepting from me everything that comes. It makes me despair, the thought of you and of me, that I don’t know how to give you more. You’ll see, you’ll see, you’ll see that it will change. Maybe it won’t be tomorrow, but one fine day it will change. You’ll see, you’ll see, I’m not done, you know. I don’t know how to tell you how or when, but you’ll see that it will change.
