Cerco l'estate tutto l'anno E all'improvviso eccola qua Lei è partita per le spiagge E sono solo quassù in città Sento fischiare sopra i tetti Un aeroplano che se ne va Azzurro Il pomeriggio è troppo azzurro E lungo per me Mi accorgo Di non avere più risorse Senza di te E allora Io quasi quasi prendo il treno E vengo, vengo da te Ma il treno dei desideri Nei miei pensieri all'incontrario va Sembra quand'ero all'oratorio Con tanto sole, tanti anni fa Quelle domeniche da solo In un cortile, a passeggiar Ora mi annoio più di allora Neanche un prete per chiacchierar Azzurro Il pomeriggio è troppo azzurro E lungo per me Mi accorgo Di non avere più risorse Senza di te E allora Io quasi quasi prendo il treno E vengo, vengo da te Ma il treno dei desideri Nei miei pensieri all'incontrario va Cerco un po' d'Africa in giardino Tra l'oleandro e il baobab Come facevo da bambino Ma qui c'è gente, non si può più Stanno innaffiando le tue rose Non c'è il leone, chissà dov'è Azzurro Il pomeriggio è troppo azzurro E lungo per me Mi accorgo Di non avere più risorse Senza di te E allora Io quasi quasi prendo il treno E vengo, vengo da te Ma il treno dei desideri Nei miei pensieri all'incontrario va Azzurro Il pomeriggio è troppo azzurro E lungo per me Mi accorgo Di non avere più risorse
