I've become a huge fan of Eros Ramazzotti <3 I like his old hits, his voice is connected to my childhood and by now is so familiar.
This is from 1993, a typical bittersweet song about post-breaking-up, in which the author wonders where can he find "another you" (Un'Altra Te). Then he goes on to add "another trouble like you". You'll see that although the lyrics have a sad undertone, they never get too angsty; actually I find them cute :\
Depending on whether you generally let yourself be carried away by songs, you might even feel on your skin the story, as if you lived those moments and now it's all ended, but you're still drawn to that person.
Go Eros! <3

Un'altra te
Another you
dove la trovo io
where do I find her
Un'altra che
Another that
sorprenda me
can surprise me
Un' altra te
Another you
un guaio simile..
such a trouble
chissà se c'è
who knows if it exists
un'altra te
Another you
~
con gli stessi tuoi discorsi
With your same talking
quelle tue espressioni
and with those expressions
che in un altro viso cogliere non so
which in another face I don't know how to catch
quegli sguardi sempre attenti
Those stares always careful
ai miei spostamenti
to my movements [shifts]
quando dal tuo spazio
whenever from your space
me ne uscivo un pò
I left a bit
con la stessa fantasia
With that same imagination
la capacità
the capacity
di tenere i ritmi indiavolati
of standing the damn rythms
degli umori miei
of my moods
~
Un'altra come te
Another (girl) like you
ma nemmeno se la invento c'e'
not even if I invent her exists
Mi sembra chiaro che
It seems fair clear that
sono ancora impantanato con te
I'm still love-stuck on you
ed è sempre più
and it's getting more and more
evidente...
evident
~
E mi manca ogni sera, la tua gelosia
And I miss every night your jealousy
anche se poi era forse più la mia
although in the end maybe it was more mine
E mi mancano i miei occhi che sono
And I miss my eyes that remained
rimasti li dove io li avevo appoggiati
where I had left them
quindi su di te
which means on you.

Un'altra come te
Another like you
ma nemmeno se la invento c'e'
not even if I invent her exists
Mi sembra chiaro che
It seems fair clear that
sono ancora impantanato con te
I'm still love-stuck on you
ed è sempre più
and it's getting more and more
preoccupante...
worrying

Evidentemente preoccupante
Evidently worrying
Ma un'altra te
But another you
non credo...
I don't believe...
