“Tra Le Mie Parole” is a classic but at the same time current ballad, strongly songwriting in which Laura imagines the dialogue between a son who has now become a man and his mother who disappeared when he was still a child. A letter in which the son turns to his mother telling her thoughts and dreams of when he was little up to the present, to the man he has become despite the suffering for the lack of that mother who went away too soon.
The artist explains about the song: "With Tra Le Mie Parole I wanted to imagine an almost supernatural and mystical dialogue, which goes beyond space and time, between two people linked by an inseparable bond of love such as that between a child and his mother. To inspire this song was a friend of mine but I believe that anyone who has experienced this type of loss can identify with the thoughts of the protagonist. The absurd thing is that, not knowing it, I wrote this song on the day of the anniversary of the death of my friend's mother. I think there is magic in this whole story and I wanted to share it with the public. I think I was a means of getting a message that was much bigger than me. "
