(Riccardo Cocciante)
Io non posso stare fermo
con le mani nelle mani,
tante cose devo fare
prima che venga domani...
E se lei già sta dormendo
io non posso riposare,
farò in modo che al risveglio
non mi possa più scordare.
Perché questa lunga notte
non sia nera più del nero,
fatti grande, dolce Luna,
e riempi il cielo intero...
E perché quel suo sorriso
possa ritornare ancora,
splendi Sole domattina
come non hai fatto ancora...
E per poi farle cantare
le canzoni che ha imparato,
io le costruirò un silenzio
che nessuno ha mai sentito...
Sveglierò tutti gli amanti
parlerò per ore ed ore,
abbracciamoci più forte
perché lei vuole l'amore.
Poi corriamo per le strade
e mettiamoci a ballare,
perché lei vuole la gioia,
perché lei odia il rancore,
poi con secchi di vernice
coloriamo tutti i muri,
case, vicoli e palazzi,
perché lei ama i colori,
raccogliamo tutti i fiori,
che può darci Primavera,
costruiamole una culla,
per amarci quando è sera.
Poi saliamo su nel cielo
e prendiamole una stella,
perché Margherita è buona,
perché Margherita è bella,
perché Margherita è dolce,
perché Margherita è vera,
perché Margherita ama,
e lo fa una notte intera.
Perché Margherita è un sogno,
perché Margherita è sale,
perché Margherita è il vento,
e non sa che può far male,
perché Margherita è tutto,
ed è lei la mia pazzia.
Margherita, Margherita,
Margherita adesso è mia,
Margherita è mia...
