D'inverno il sole stanco
A letto presto se ne va
Non ce la fa più
Non ce la fa più
La notte adesso scende
Con le sue mani fredde su di me
Ma che freddo fa
Ma che freddo fa
Basterebbe una carezza
Per un cuore di ragazzo
Forse allora sì, che t'amerei

Cos'è la vita
Senza l'amore
È solo un albero
Che foglie non ha più
E s'alza il vento
Un vento freddo
Come le foglie
Le speranze butta giù
Ma questa vita cos'è
Se manchi tu

Mi sento una farfalla
Che sui fiori non vola più
Che non vola più
Che non vola più
Mi son bruciato al fuoco
Del tuo grande amore
Che s'è spento già
Ma che freddo fa
Ma che freddo fa
Tu ragazza m'hai deluso
Hai rubato dal mio viso
Quel sorriso che non tornerà

Cos'è la vita
Senza l'amore
È solo un albero
Che foglie non ha più
E s'alza il vento
Un vento freddo
Come le foglie
Le speranze butta giù
Ma questa vita cos'è
Se manchi tu

E s'alza il vento
Un vento freddo
Come le foglie
Le speranze butta giù
Ma questa vita cos'è
Se manchi tu
