Peace Of Mind / Pace interiore
You know it takes a long, long time
You know it takes a long, long time
You love her so and still you know
That you will never want to let her go
Unless you leave her first
Then you come out on top
But, still there's just one thing
You haven't got
Peace of mind
Like when you treated her kind
It's hard to face that open space
You know it takes a long, long time
You know it takes a long, long time
When first you gave and shared your soul
Showed her all those things that take their toll
She knows your weak spot
But, she still gets you hot
So you do it again
Reveal what lies within
And go for peace of mind
Like when you treated her kind
It's hard to face that open space
You're lookin' for peace of mind
Anywhere you can find
Still searchin' for peace of mind
You know it takes a long, long time
You know it takes a long, long time

Lo sai che ci vuole tanto, tanto tempo
Lo sai che ci vuole tanto, tanto tempo
La ami così tanto e ancora sai
Che non la lascerai mai andar via
A meno che non la lasci prima tu
Per uscirne vincitore
Ma c'è ancora una cosa
Che ti manca
Pace interiore
Come quando la trattavi bene
È duro da affrontare quello spazio aperto
Lo sai che ci vuole tanto, tanto tempo
Lo sai che ci vuole tanto, tanto tempo
Quando per la prima volta hai donato e condiviso la tua anima
Le hai mostrato tutte quelle cose che hanno un prezzo
Lei conosce il tuo punto debole
Ma ancora ti fa fremere
Perciò fallo ancora
Rivela cosa si nasconde dentro
E vuoi la pace interiore
Come quando la trattavi bene
È duro da affrontare quello spazio aperto
Stai cercando la pace interiore
Ovunque tu possa trovarla
Stai ancora cercando la pace interiore
Lo sai che ci vuole tanto, tanto tempo
Lo sai che ci vuole tanto, tanto tempo

VERSI DIFFERENTI
seconda strofa

You know it was a long, hard time
To learn to love a second time
* * * *
Lo sai che è stato lungo e difficile
Imparare ad amare una seconda volta
