**“E Ancor Mi Chiedo” plunges us into the head-spinning mix of trust and insecurity that flares up whenever two lovers are apart. Eros Ramazzotti sings with that unmistakable Italian warmth, confessing that he believes in his partner’s sincerity and yet stares at the ceiling all night, wide awake, because her absence “burns” him. The verses paint a vivid tug-of-war: on one side, solid faith in her goodness; on the other, a restless imagination that keeps asking, Where do you go? What do you do when you’re not with me?
The chorus becomes a heartbeat of anxious questions. Eros lists the shadows he thinks he sees around her, quickly reassuring himself that it must be “only an impression”… but the doubt always creeps back. The song’s power lies in that universal moment when love feels both comforting and terrifying, when you want to let someone fly free yet secretly hope they never leave your sight. By the final line—“Io muoio quando tu non sei con me” (“I die when you’re not with me”)—the singer has laid bare the raw need we sometimes hide. It’s a passionate snapshot of love’s most human contradiction: trusting someone completely while still fearing the dark corners our imagination can invent.
