Ci sono specchi così grandi in questo viaggio di ritorno
così grandi che l'immagine sembra prendere anche il giorno
E la paura di partire può portarti via per mano
perchè il viaggio è ancora lungo e dallo specchio il mondo è strano
Presi bene la rincorsa per trovarmi alla stazione
pochi stracci una valigia la chitarra ed il mio nome
ed un compare per cappello per la pioggia e per il sole
come è lento questo giorno come il treno che si muove
E muove lento questo treno con gli amici tutti intorno
quanta gente alle mie spalle a ricordarmi di quel giorno
e mia madre e le sue lacrime e mio padre sguardo serio
mentre scivola il vagone il mio sorriso viene meno
Poi la nebbia così fitta venne a Modena stazione
e l'orologio col suo occhio giallo gridava il mio cognome
e poi fu solo resistenza per coraggio o per timore
per quel freddo sulla pelle che mi ghiacciava fino al cuore
E le luci sono frecce, punte lungo il finestrino
e ritrovarsi ancora solo pare un colpodel destino
come la stella che ora guardo in questo cielo nero
sola in mezzo a un universo che la ama un pò di meno
Come è buia questa notte e nel buio una persona
sembra sciolto ed elegante la barba incolta un pò alla moda
e nel palpitar del treno racconta storie di miseria
ma viene dalla prima classe e non è più cosa seria
Arrivato a Valmontone scese un turco ed un armeno
con quell'aria da teppisti e bevitori di buon vino
e nella sera che poi venne cantammo fino a notte fonda
delle donne e delle vite che poi rivedremo ancora
Una luna così bianca, sono stanco e viene sonno
muta assiste la campagna a questo viaggio di ritorno
e una nuvola distratta porta dietro se l'aurora
lenta scende sul mio sonno scende ed è di nuovo giorno.
