Discover the story of the song > I Treni Di Tozeur – Alice

The protagonist is reminiscing about a time when she visited Tozeur, a town in Tunisia. She mentions that in the border villages, people would watch the trains go by and the streets would be empty. From a distance, her partner's mother saw her and remembered her habits. This brings back the desire for a different, faster-paced life. There are abandoned churches being turned into shelters and new spaceships for interstellar travel being prepared. In an old mine, there are salt flats and memories of her, like a spell. The chorus repeats the desire to live at a different speed and mentions that the trains to Tozeur still pass by slowly. In the end, it is mentioned again that in the border villages, people watch the trains go by to Tozeur.
