Traducción de la letra de la canción If You Were In My Place (What Would You Do ) - Duke Ellington & His Orchestra

If You Were In My Place (What Would You Do ) (original)

If you were in my place
what would you do
Would you hold me in the same embrace
as I’m holding you?
Would you kiss and sigh just as I
then for another kiss insist
Would you scheme and dream, treat me mean
and tell me that you can’t resist?
If you were in my place, what would you say
Would you say to me as I say to you
'I feel that certain way'?
Like a heart that never spoke before
would you say as mine, 'It's you I adore'
If you were in my place,
darling what would you do?

(traducción)

Si estuvieras en mi lugar
qué harías
¿Me abrazarías en el mismo abrazo?
mientras te sostengo?
Besarías y suspirarías como yo
luego por otro beso insisto
¿Planearías y soñarías, me tratarías mal?
y dime que no te puedes resistir?
Si estuvieras en mi lugar, ¿qué dirías?
me dirías como te digo
¿'Me siento así de cierta manera'?
Como un corazón que nunca habló antes
dirías como el mío, 'Eres tú a quien adoro'
Si estuvieras en mi lugar,
cariño, ¿qué harías?
