Wor(l)d of Morrissey :: I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris



		We're back! Welcome to the world of Morrissey's lyrics. This site and all of the work made to keep it updated during the last 26 years are dedicated to my beloved friend MaCa65 who suddenly left this lonely planet and me without words. Throughout the short stretch of time that we have been given to spend together as close friends, we shared many things, thoughts, afternoons, views, passions and some bits of Life. Back in 1983, together we discovered a band called The Smiths and together since then, we followed Morrissey's career as one of the most influential and inspiring singer/artist/poet of our age. Maca65 has always been a strong supporter since when I first launched WoM, so this is and will always be entirely for you, my friend. -- David

I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris

In the absence of your love
And in the absence of human touch¹
I have decided
I’m throwing my arms around, around Paris
Because only stone and steel accept my love.

In the absence of your smiling face
I traveled all over the place²
And I have decided
I’m throwing my arms around, around Paris
Because only stone and steel accept my love
I’m throwing my arms around, around Paris
Because only stone and steel accept my love.

I’m throwing my arms around Paris
Because nobody wants my love
Nobody wants my love
Nobody needs my love
Nobody wants my love

Yes, you made yourself plain
Yes, you made yourself very plain

Sung live for the first time during the 2007 U.S. Tour.

¹ Other live sources report:
"In the absence of your touch
And in the absence of loved ones"

² Also sung as: "I skated all over the place" or "I scootered all over the place"

Getto le braccia attorno a Parigi

In mancanza del tuo amore
e in mancanza di contatto umano
ho deciso
di abbracciare tutta Parigi,
perché soltanto pietre ed acciaio accettano il mio amore.

In mancanza del tuo viso sorridente
ho viaggiato dappertutto
e ho deciso
di gettare le braccia attorno a Parigi
perché soltanto pietre ed acciaio accettano il mio amore
Getto le braccia attorno a Parigi
perché soltanto pietre ed acciaio accettano il mio amore

Getto le braccia attorno a Parigi
perché nessuno vuole il mio amore
Nessuno vuole il mio amore
Nessuno ha bisogno del mio amore
Nessuno vuole il mio amore

Sì, ti sei reso insignificante
Sì, ti sei reso davvero insignificante

Proposta per la prima volta durante il tour USA 2007.

¹ Altre interpretazioni live riportano:
"In the absence of your touch
And in the absence of human touch"

² A volte anche: "Ho schettinato dappertutto" or "Ho girato in scooter dappertutto"
