The song "Il Mio Domani" (translated as "My Tomorrow" in English) is performed by Italian singer Umberto Tozzi. The lyrics depict the feelings of longing, hope, and uncertainty that come with experiencing love and the passing of time. In the song, Tozzi reflects on a past relationship where he feels alone and disconnected. He mentions that sometimes, a part of us gets closer to heaven, implying a sense of spirituality or transcendence. However, he also mentions the temporary escape provided by alcohol, which can temporarily numb the pain. Yet, he still waits for something better, possibly tomorrow. Tozzi nostalgically recalls his childhood and how he anticipated achieving bigger things as an adult. However, life's hardships, symbolized by rain, have affected him. He cries out in frustration but tells himself not to cry or lose hope, emphasizing the importance of winning or overcoming obstacles. He then imagines a desert with lilac forests, where he can dream and escape the city's bustling life. But he remains alone in this pursuit, running where time has no peace or mercy. He longs for a future Christmas, hoping that he won't be alone but surrounded by memories of his loved one. The lyrics express Tozzi's loneliness and how he consumes himself with his pains. He compares his yearning to the inability of hail to melt in the sun without his loved one. Yet, he cannot erase the desire to live and be deceived by the idea that she might reach out to him, becoming his true tomorrow. Tozzi mentions imagining caresses and a breeze in his lover's hair, but there is an unwanted swing of emotions that she doesn't want. He lights a star that no longer gives hope, possibly symbolizing lost dreams. He compares it to the fall of the Berlin Wall, signifying the end of a period of prosperity. The song ends with Tozzi affirming that behind all his questions, she will always be his tomorrow. Overall, "Il Mio Domani" delves into themes of longing, disillusionment, and the desire for companionship. It reflects on the difficulties of relationships and the uncertainty of what the future holds.
