“Clouds Go Away (But the Sun Won’t Shine)”
Intro (Spoken – with attitude)
Yeah…
Another night, another bottle…
Turn up the Bass!!
⸻
Verse 1
I left my pride in a corner bar
Off a highway with no name,
Paid my tab with a broken heart
And a tip for the pain.
They say tequila don’t fix a thing,
But it softens the fall,
When you’re staring at four white walls
And nobody calls.
I tell my friends that I’m doing fine,
That I’m stronger these days,
But strength is just a mask you wear
When love walks away.
⸻
Pre-Chorus
I tried one last time to hold on tight,
But some things slip through your hands,
You can fight all night for a fading light
But you can’t make it stand.
⸻
Chorus (High energy, repeatable)
After a few more shots, the clouds roll out,
The sky clears up somehow,
But the sun won’t shine, no it won’t shine now.
Yeah, the whiskey lies, says I’m alright,
Says I’ll forget you somehow,
But the sun won’t shine, no it won’t shine now.
(Repeat last two lines with crowd shout style)
No it won’t shine now!
No it won’t shine now!
⸻
Verse 2
Cheap motel room, buzzing neon light,
Rain tapping on the door,
Got your memory in a suitcase
Scattered on the floor.
The bed still cold on your empty side,
Even miles away,
Every road that I take at night
Still leads to yesterday.
I close my eyes and I see your face
Floating in my drink,
For a second I swear you’re here
Closer than I think.
⸻
Pre-Chorus
But morning comes with a sober truth,
Hits harder than goodbye,
You can drown the dark for a little while
But it always survives.
⸻
Chorus (Bigger, louder)
After a few more shots, the clouds roll out,
The sky clears up somehow,
But the sun won’t shine, no it won’t shine now.
Yeah, the whiskey lies, says I’m alright,
Says I’ll forget you somehow,
But the sun won’t shine, no it won’t shine now.
Hey!
No it won’t shine now!
No it won’t shine now Here is the Italian translation, adapted to sound natural and singable:
Le Nuvole Se Ne Vanno (Ma Il Sole Non Splende)
Intro (Parlato – con atteggiamento)
Yeah…
Un’altra notte, un’altra bottiglia…
Alza la tambora!
⸻
Verso 1
Ho lasciato il mio orgoglio in un bar d’angolo,
Su una strada senza nome,
Ho pagato il conto con un cuore spezzato
E una mancia per il dolore.
Dicono che la tequila non aggiusti niente,
Ma rende la caduta più lieve,
Quando fissi quattro muri bianchi
E nessuno ti chiama.
Dico agli amici che sto bene,
Che ora sono più forte,
Ma la forza è solo una maschera
Quando l’amore se ne va.
⸻
Pre-Ritornello
Ho provato un’ultima volta a stringerti forte,
Ma certe cose scivolano via,
Puoi combattere tutta la notte per una luce che svanisce,
Ma non puoi farla restare.
⸻
Ritornello
Dopo qualche bicchiere in più, le nuvole se ne vanno,
Il cielo si apre all’improvviso,
Ma il sole non splende, no, non splende adesso.
Sì, il whiskey mente e dice che sto bene,
Che in qualche modo ti dimenticherò,
Ma il sole non splende, no, non splende adesso.
(Ripetere con il pubblico)
No, non splende adesso!
