Traducción de la letra de la canción Skating on Thin Ice - Procol Harum

Skating on Thin Ice (original)

You were the player
And you played it cool
I was the stranger
And I played the fool
You were the teacher
And you were the best
I was the seeker
And I failed the test
We were always skating on thin ice
Shaking the wrong dice
Swimming against the tide
Playing on the wrong side
Yes you were the player
And you were so cool
I was the greenhorn
King of the fools
Painting the picture
To fit with the frame
Changing the players
To fit with the game
You were the searcher
Out for the sky
I was the traveller
Just passing by
You were the taker
And you gave the call
I was the faker
And I dropped the ball

Skating on Thin Ice (traducción)

eras el jugador
Y lo hiciste genial
yo era el extraño
Y me hice el tonto
tu eras el maestro
Y tu eras el mejor
yo era el buscador
Y fallé la prueba
Siempre estábamos patinando sobre hielo delgado
Sacudiendo los dados equivocados
Nadar contra la corriente
Jugar en el lado equivocado
Sí, eras el jugador.
Y eras tan genial
yo era el novato
Rey de los tontos
pintando el cuadro
Para encajar con el marco
Cambiando los jugadores
Para encajar con el juego
eras el buscador
por el cielo
yo era el viajero
solo de paso
tu eras el tomador
Y diste la llamada
yo era el farsante
Y se me cayó la pelota
