How It Feels (originale)

How was I to know, how was I to know
How you’d feel?
Until you put us back, put us back
On an even keel?
(How was I to know, how was I to know)
When I tried to read the signs
(How was I to know, how was I to know)
You told me everything was fine
(How was I to know, how was I to know)
You find the problems are all mine
I can trace it back
To one evening under a diamond sky
Usual three word phrases weren’t reciprocated
I had to ask why
Silence for too long (far, far too long)
Any trace of a smile in your face was gone
Jealousy, the little green eyed monster, dancing with you and me
It could have been so easy for me to see
The cracks that had appeared
If only I’d stopped to think of all the times
That you’d always feared
Other people would come into play
Eyes, lips, then bodies be swayed
And you believed that you’d been betrayed
When no such games had ever been played
You push me
By questioning my integrity
Then I push you
By dismissing your views
You push me
I can’t remember how it used to be
Why push through?
Is this what love has made us do?
How was I to know, how was I to know
How you’d feel?
Until you put us back, put us back
On an even keel?
How was I to know, how was I to know
How you’d feel?
Until you put us back, put us back
On an even keel?
Now you’re blind to the monster in your mind
You find some ways to convince you every time
I’m later back than I said I’m gonna be
I’m not in another lover’s arms
Seduced by the charms of a person we met twice
Or a person I once said was nice
Addicted to bad ideas
Which turn your love to fears
You push me
By questioning my integrity
Then I push you
By dismissing your views
You push me
I can’t remember how it used to be
Why push through?
Is this what love has made us do?
How was I to know, how was I to know
How you’d feel?
Until you put us back, put us back
On an even keel?
How was I to know (how was I to know)
How was I to know (how was I to know)
(When I tried to read the signs) (how was I to know)
How you’d feel (how was I to know, how was I to know)
(You told me everything was fine)
Until you put us back, put us back
(How was I to know, how was I to know)
(You find the problems are all mine)
On an even keel
(How was I to know, how was I to know)
When I tried to read the signs
(How was I to know, how was I to know)
You told me everything was fine
(How was I to know, how was I to know)
You find the problems are all mine
(How was I to know, how was I to know)
When I tried to read the signs
(How was I to know, how was I to know)
You told me everything was fine
(How was I to know, how was I to know)
You find the problems are all mine
How was I to know?
(How was I to know, how was I to know)
(How was I to know, how was I to know)
(How was I to know, how was I to know)
How was I to know?

(traduzione)

Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere
Come ti sentiresti?
Finché non ci rimetti a posto, rimettici a posto
Su una chiglia uniforme?
(Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere)
Quando ho provato a leggere i segni
(Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere)
Mi avevi detto che andava tutto bene
(Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere)
Trovi che i problemi siano tutti miei
Posso risalire indietro
A una sera sotto un cielo di diamanti
Le solite frasi di tre parole non sono state ricambiate
Ho dovuto chiedere perché
Silenzio per troppo tempo (molto, troppo a lungo)
Ogni traccia di un sorriso sul tuo viso era sparita
Gelosia, il piccolo mostro dagli occhi verdi, che balla con te e me
Sarebbe stato così facile per me vederlo
Le crepe che erano apparse
Se solo mi fossi fermato a pensare a tutte le volte
Che avevi sempre temuto
Altre persone entrerebbero in gioco
Occhi, labbra, poi corpi sono oscillati
E credevi di essere stato tradito
Quando nessun gioco del genere era mai stato giocato
Mi spingi
Mettendo in dubbio la mia integrità
Poi ti spingo
Ignorando le tue opinioni
Mi spingi
Non riesco a ricordare com'era una volta
Perché passare?
È questo ciò che l'amore ci ha fatto fare?
Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere
Come ti sentiresti?
Finché non ci rimetti a posto, rimettici a posto
Su una chiglia uniforme?
Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere
Come ti sentiresti?
Finché non ci rimetti a posto, rimettici a posto
Su una chiglia uniforme?
Ora sei cieco di fronte al mostro nella tua mente
Ogni volta trovi dei modi per convincerti
Tornerò più tardi di quanto ho detto che sarò
Non sono tra le braccia di un altro amante
Sedotti dal fascino di una persona che abbiamo incontrato due volte
O una persona che una volta ho detto era gentile
Dipendente da cattive idee
Che trasformano il tuo amore in paure
Mi spingi
Mettendo in dubbio la mia integrità
Poi ti spingo
Ignorando le tue opinioni
Mi spingi
Non riesco a ricordare com'era una volta
Perché passare?
È questo ciò che l'amore ci ha fatto fare?
Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere
Come ti sentiresti?
Finché non ci rimetti a posto, rimettici a posto
Su una chiglia uniforme?
Come potevo sapere (come potevo sapere)
Come potevo sapere (come potevo sapere)
(Quando ho provato a leggere i segni) (come potevo sapere)
Come ti sentiresti (come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere)
(Mi hai detto che andava tutto bene)
Finché non ci rimetti a posto, rimettici a posto
(Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere)
(Trovi che i problemi siano tutti miei)
Su una chiglia uniforme
(Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere)
Quando ho provato a leggere i segni
(Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere)
Mi avevi detto che andava tutto bene
(Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere)
Trovi che i problemi siano tutti miei
(Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere)
Quando ho provato a leggere i segni
(Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere)
Mi avevi detto che andava tutto bene
(Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere)
Trovi che i problemi siano tutti miei
Come avrei dovuto saperlo?
(Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere)
(Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere)
(Come potevo sapere, come potevo sapere)
Come avrei dovuto saperlo?
