Stasera che sera

The singer imagines spending an entire evening with someone he loves. The mood is intimate and joyful, with love described as a surprise even though the relationship seems familiar and enduring. As the lyrics move from shared time in the present to thoughts about days gone by, the feeling remains warm: those days were not wasted, and the beloved still feels present to him.

Several images express the intensity of this closeness. Breathing in the sea’s scent and being rocked by the wind create a calm, sensual setting. “Holding the sun” suggests wanting to gather warmth and light, while surrounding the beloved’s face with that warmth makes affection feel almost physical. The contrast between being a “gentleman” or a “beggar” implies that status matters less than remembering to be a lover.

Some images are deliberately hard to pin down. The lines about asking the air for its treasures and feeling “outside” while indoors may suggest freedom or escape through love, but they remain open to interpretation. Likewise, saying the beloved is “mine in my mind” could express lasting devotion, or hint that the relationship now lives partly in memory. The song’s repeated refrain keeps the present evening bright, even as the lyrics acknowledge time passing.
