Songfic: Ti vorrei sollevare - Elisa feat. Giuliano Sangiorgi
Today I happened to listen at this song and I felt like writing a Song-Fic once again :)
The singer is Elisa, the very same singer of the Song-fic I wrote before, but this time she’s singing in Italian featuring with another Italian singer… (of course, I'm translating the lyrics in English!)
For those who don’t know them, they are both known for their amazing vocal range (especially him, who has a very particular voice for a male!)
I recommend you to listen at them HERE and… don’t try to sing along because it could end out badly! XD
BTW... don't worry if you don’t like the song… just enjoy the fic! (or just be patient until the 2:45 part) :3

Rating: G
Genre: angsty romance
Mi hai lasciato senza parole
come una primavera
e questo è un raggio di luce
un pensiero che si riempie
di te
You left me speechless
like a spring
and this is a ray of light
a thought which is filling
with you
Ninomiya was sighing loudly, looking out of the window.
He couldn’t stop thinking about that one person who was always in his mind…
That day they had been together for filming one of their TV shows, and the gamer was fully aware that he had kept staring at him hopelessly for the whole time.
He couldn’t care less about their guest that day.
He just wanted looking at him.
Enjoying the sight of his happy smile, even though he wasn't the person to whom it was directed.
E l'attimo in cui il sole
diventa dorato
e il cuore si fa leggero
come l'aria prima che il tempo
ci porti via
ci porti via
da qui
It’s the moment when the sun
becomes golden
and the heart is lighter
like the air, before time
takes us away
takes us away
from here
It was quite rare for the musician to be at home at such an early hour, given that it wasn’t his day off.
But now he was contemplating the sunset, feeling fascinated by those last rays stretching over the skyline… and with his eyes closed he could enjoy that warming feeling on his tired face, imagining the presence of someone else right next to him.
Squeezing his hand.
They were used to stay in that way whenever they got the chance.
Staying silently one beside the other, expressing their feelings without words…
Even though they were both busy persons with a tight schedule and it was harder and harder to find out time to spend together alone, they would always try their best in order to do it.
Ti vorrei sollevare
Ti vorrei consolare
I’d like to lift you up
I’d like to cheer you up
That’s why he was now terribly upset for not being with him in this very moment, enjoying that marvellous sunset together.
For having ruined something that could have been a wonderful moment.
For having fought with the latest person he wanted to fight with.
Mi hai detto ti ho visto cambiare
Tu non stai più a sentire
per un momento avrei voluto
che fosse vero anche soltanto
un pò
You said me “I saw you changing”
“You don’t listen anymore”
For a moment I wished
that it were true, even just
for a little bit
Still with his eyes closed, he kept thinking back at their latest discussion: images of his lover shouting back at him were flashing into his head.
He was angry with him.
And Nino knew perfectly that it had been completely his fault, as he had acted stupidly for the umpteenth time.
For the last time apparently, as his lover has finally thrown his hurt feelings in his face, rejecting every request to make it up.
Perchè ti ho sentito entrare
ma volevo sparire
e invece ti ho visto mirare
invece ti ho visto sparare
a quell'anima
che hai detto che io non ho
Because I heard you coming in
But I wanted to vanish
Instead I saw you aiming
Instead I saw you shooting
At that soul
That you said before that I don’t have.
He recalled clearly how his lover had approached to him decisively that day…
Too much decisively, considering his usual peaceful attitude.
And with a severity that Nino had rarely seen in him, he started talking, giving vent to his feelings, saying that everything was over between them.
Without even letting him object or reply.
He talked quickly, he sank the blade, then left.
Crying.
Ti vorrei sollevare
Ti vorrei consolare
I’d like to lift you up
I’d like to cheer you up
In that moment Nino had felt a strong pain in his chest.
Seeing him cry so desperately, made him realize how much he had hurt him.
So much, that even breaking up wasn’t enough for him to feel slightly better.
Ti vorrei sollevare
Ti vorrei ritrovare
I’d like to lift you up
I’d like to find you again
In that moment Nino had desperately wanted to follow him and hug him tightly.
To make him stop crying.
But he was fully aware that he couldn’t possibly do something like that, as his presence would have just worsened the situation… so he had let him go.
vorrei viaggiare su ali di carta con te
sapere inventare
sentire il vento che soffia
e non nasconderci se ci fa spostare
quando persi sotto tante stelle
ci chiediamo cosa siamo venuti a fare
cos'è l'amore
stringiamoci più forte ancora
teniamoci vicino al cuore
I’d like to travel on paper’s wings with you
To be able to invent
To hear the wind blowing
And to not hide if it makes us move
When lost under so many stars
We are wondering what we came to do
What is love?
Let’s hold us even tighter
Keeping us closer to the heart
Letting out another low sigh, the musician thought back again at those times when they were happy: when every job-related activity was fun and amusing just because they happened to be together.
Writing lyrics, working on their songs… this is how everything started.
Being the only one person whom they would ask advice for their individual jobs.
And then, going out in the middle of the night after a particularly tough concert, when they were feeling most alive than in any other moment.
They had discovered their soul to be connected while squeezing each other’s hand.
While sharing their first kiss under a starry sky.
It wasn’t Arashi’s affection what they were feeling.
It was Nino and Sho’s.
And it wasn’t just affection anymore.
That distant night they had hugged each other with passion and emotion.
And it had been the happier night in Nino’s life.
When everything had started between them…

...I know, every time I write a songfic I end up with something sad :O
But angst is good once in a while, isn't it?
I hope you'd liked this little attempt of mine! ;)
