(Canta: Luca Bonaffini)
(Coro: Ermanno Zanfi)
(Testo e musica di Luca Bonaffini)
Blu come il pensiero che avvolge le galassie in cielo
In equilibrio sul sentiero senza mai cadere giu'
Blu dei ricordi sui diari blu, di uno stonato stradivari
Blu che non trovo piu'
Blu delle illusioni delle parole senza suoni
Blu dei blu jeans e dei pantaloni quelli che non mi vanno piu'
Blu degli occhi neri di ragazze blu
Di amici veri come chiazze blu
E niente di piu'
Dell'adolescenza vissuta giocando tra dolce incoscienza e soldati
Blu di amori ideali macchiati di pioggia e di ogni mia goccia di sangue blu
Come l'onniscienza di tutti i miei padri
In fondo i piu' ladri di ogni mio sogno in blu
Blu come la notte dei gatti dalle unghie rotte
Senza stivali Don Chisciotte
Parti' e non ritornò mai piu'
Blu dei quindici anni di una foto blu
Di affanni di un poeta ignoto in blu
Che non piange piu'
Colore del mare colore del cielo
In ogni mistero una donna
Blu macchiato di scogli di facili imbrogli
Di bianchi convogli di pesci
Blu come la mia vita
Come la fatica
Di una dolce amica dagli occhi blu...
