| High on the bell tower
| En lo alto del campanario
|
| I took my view
| tomé mi punto de vista
|
| Over the downtowns
| Sobre los centros de la ciudad
|
| And the avenues
| y las avenidas
|
| Where the streets are wide
| Donde las calles son anchas
|
| And the people thrive
| Y la gente prospera
|
| And its further to fall down
| Y es más para caer
|
| Cause you fly so high
| Porque vuelas tan alto
|
| I’ve never seen such beauty
| nunca habia visto tanta belleza
|
| I’ve never seen such clear skies
| Nunca he visto cielos tan despejados
|
| I’ve never seen such high hopes
| Nunca he visto tantas esperanzas
|
| I’ve never seen such tired eyes
| Nunca he visto ojos tan cansados.
|
| And I wish that I could be
| Y desearía poder ser
|
| Everything you are
| todo lo que eres
|
| Everything you are
| todo lo que eres
|
| Down in the delta
| Abajo en el delta
|
| The city wakes
| la ciudad despierta
|
| Turns on the TV
| Enciende el televisor
|
| As the levy breaks
| A medida que se rompe el impuesto
|
| Where the streets are burned
| Donde las calles se queman
|
| Hot summer sun
| caliente sol de verano
|
| And there’s nowhere to run to
| Y no hay adónde correr
|
| When your time has come
| cuando ha llegado tu hora
|
| I’ve never seen such beauty
| nunca habia visto tanta belleza
|
| I’ve never seen such clear skies
| Nunca he visto cielos tan despejados
|
| I’ve never seen such high hopes
| Nunca he visto tantas esperanzas
|
| I’ve never seen such tired eyes
| Nunca he visto ojos tan cansados.
|
| Pull the roots up piece by piece
| Arranca las raíces pieza por pieza
|
| Love lives watching over me
| El amor vive cuidándome
|
| Take my pills and went to sleep
| Tome mis pastillas y me fui a dormir
|
| Oh, and I sang myself to sleep
| Ah, y me canté a mí mismo para dormir
|
| And I wish that I could be
| Y desearía poder ser
|
| Everything you are
| todo lo que eres
|
| Everything you are
| todo lo que eres
|
| And I wish that I could see
| Y desearía poder ver
|
| The world the way you do
| El mundo como tú lo haces
|
| As selfishly as you
| Tan egoísta como tú
|
| And I wish that I could be
| Y desearía poder ser
|
| Everything you are
| todo lo que eres
|
| Everything you are
| todo lo que eres
|
| And I wish that I could stick
| Y desearía poder pegarme
|
| My faith the way you do
| Mi fe como tú lo haces
|
| As certainly as you
| Tan seguro como tú
|
| The sky is going to fall on you
| El cielo se te va a caer encima
|
| The sky is going to fall on you
| El cielo se te va a caer encima
|
| The sky is going to fall on you
| El cielo se te va a caer encima
|
| On you, on you
| Sobre ti, sobre ti
|
| The sky is going to fall on you
| El cielo se te va a caer encima
|
| The sky | El cielo |
