Under the blazing summer sun, Noemi’s narrator falls head-over-heels for someone she never meant to love. That sudden spark turns the calendar into a roller-coaster: she already knows that autumn will be tough, winter will be tough, and even spring will be tough, because every season will now be measured by how much she misses that unexpected love. The song captures the bittersweet mix of euphoria and anxiety that comes with a romance born in holiday lightness but carried into real-life worries.
Her mind swings between two urges: to run toward the relationship and to run away from the heartache it promises. She pictures airplanes, sleepless Sunday nights, and conversations that always end with ti voglio bene—all proof of her emotional free-fall. Despite the fear, the feeling is undeniable and, in its own way, beautiful. Autunno is a confession that love can rewrite every season, turning even the cosiest months into a passionate, unpredictable adventure.
