Inafferrabile Lyrics in English Anna Tatangelo

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Inafferrabile by Anna Tatangelo from Italian to English.
Forse non ho più domande da fare
Maybe I don't have any more questions to ask
Forse ogni tanto mi piace sbagliare
Maybe sometimes I like messing up
Forse mi ammazza la luce del sole
Maybe the sunlight kills me
Forse è umano odiarti
Maybe it's human to hate you
Probabilmente io non avrei saputo fare ancora meglio
I probably couldn't have done any better
Le mie esprienze non devi prenderle sul serio
You don't have to take my experiences seriously
Voglio qualcuno che resti per me inafferrabile
I want someone who stays elusive to me
Cerco la zona che meno conosci di te
I look for the side of you you know least
Amo scoprirti ogni volta che perdi il controllo
I love uncovering you every time you lose control
Sei fonte pura tra istinto ed illegalità
You're a pure source between instinct and illegality
Sei l'illusione che vince sulla realtà
You're the illusion that beats reality
Forse non basta lavarsi le mani
Maybe washing your hands isn't enough
Forse non voglio risposte già scontate
Maybe I don't want answers that are already obvious
Probabilmente io non avrei dovuto cogliere il momento
I probably shouldn't have seized the moment
La mia coscienza non vuole considerazioni
My conscience doesn't want considerations
Voglio qualcuno che resti per me inafferrabile
I want someone who stays elusive to me
Cerco la parte che meno domanda di te
I look for the part of you that demands the least
Amo scoprirti ogni volta che perdi il controllo
I love uncovering you every time you lose control
Sei fonte pura tra istinto ed illegalità
You're a pure source between instinct and illegality
Sei l'illusione che vince sulla realtà
You're the illusion that beats reality
Prima tutto è importante poi non vale più niente
First everything matters then it's worth nothing anymore
Prima non conta niente poi diventa importante
First nothing matters then it becomes important
La coerenza dell'inafferrabile
The coherence of the unfathomable
Voglio qualcuno che resti per me inafferrabile
I want someone who stays elusive to me
Sei fonte pura tra istinto ed illegalità
You're a pure source between instinct and illegality
Sei l'illusione che vince
You're the illusion that wins
Sei l'illusione che vince sulla
You're the illusion that wins over
Sei l'illusione che vince sulla realtà
You're the illusion that beats reality

SONG MEANING

Inafferrabile translates to elusive, and that single word captures the heart-beat of Anna Tatangelo’s song. She sings about craving a love that can never be pinned down – a person whose mystery keeps her endlessly curious. Between playful “forse” (maybe) confessions and rebellious admissions of liking mistakes, Anna paints a portrait of a relationship that thrives on contradictions: light and shadow, instinct and illegality, illusion and reality. Every time her partner slips out of control, she feels a thrilling jolt of discovery, proving that predictability is the enemy of passion.

Instead of tidy answers or spotless hands, the singer opts for messy emotions and unapologetic desire. The chorus becomes a manifesto: “Voglio qualcuno che resti per me inafferrabile” – she wants someone forever out of reach. The result is a vibrant anthem for anyone who finds beauty in uncertainty, who loves the chase more than the capture, and who believes that the most powerful truths often hide in the grey zones between right and wrong.
