Lyrics & translation
Verse
The sky turns black today.
Il cielo si fa nero oggi.
Thunder rolls across the hills.
Il tuono rotola sulle colline.
I hold these petals tight.
Stringo forte questi petali.
Rain hits the windshield hard.
La pioggia colpisce forte il parabrezza.
Chorus
Pink roses for your name.
Rose rosa per il tuo nome.
Pink roses for your name.
Rose rosa per il tuo nome.
Ten years of cold silence.
Dieci anni di freddo silenzio.
I am at your door.
Sono alla tua porta.
Verse
The florist knows the way.
La fioraia conosce la strada.
Water floods the empty street.
L'acqua allaga la strada vuota.
We were sisters once before.
Eravamo sorelle una volta.
Now I knock and wait.
Ora busso e aspetto.
Chorus
Pink roses for your name.
Rose rosa per il tuo nome.
Pink roses for your name.
Rose rosa per il tuo nome.
Ten years of cold silence.
Dieci anni di freddo silenzio.
I am at your door.
Sono alla tua porta.
Bridge
Lightning lights the dark hall.
Il fulmine illumina l'atrio buio.
Will you turn the key?
Girerai la chiave?
The storm is screaming loud.
La tempesta urla forte.
Peace is in my hands.
La pace è nelle mie mani.
Chorus
Pink roses for your name.
Rose rosa per il tuo nome.
Pink roses for your name.
Rose rosa per il tuo nome.
Ten years of cold silence.
Dieci anni di freddo silenzio.
I am at your door.
Sono alla tua porta.
