| I don’t know the difference between you and the weather
| No sé la diferencia entre tú y el clima
|
| You covered me in dust and wet me through
| Me cubriste de polvo y me mojaste
|
| Felt a little nervous when we two were together
| Me sentí un poco nervioso cuando los dos estábamos juntos.
|
| Because you were like a storm that I could talk to
| Porque eras como una tormenta con la que podía hablar
|
| We’d go between the cattle and the cane in the morning
| Íbamos entre el ganado y la caña en la mañana
|
| You said you didn’t know where the road led to
| Dijiste que no sabías a dónde conducía el camino
|
| You just kept on walking when I balked at the warning
| Seguiste caminando cuando me resistí a la advertencia
|
| Like it was simply something you had to do
| Como si fuera simplemente algo que tenías que hacer
|
| You walked on alone as I walked home
| Caminaste solo mientras yo caminaba a casa
|
| And you thought you could control it
| Y pensaste que podías controlarlo
|
| And we thought you would come back
| Y pensamos que volverías
|
| They sold something that took sadness and solved it
| Vendieron algo que se llevó la tristeza y la resolvió
|
| But Ben, you should have been scared of that
| Pero Ben, deberías haber tenido miedo de eso.
|
| Oh Ben, you should have been scared of that
| Oh, Ben, deberías haber tenido miedo de eso.
|
| At an oval up in Isa, from where me and the boys stood
| En un óvalo arriba en Isa, desde donde estábamos los chicos y yo
|
| It seemed the ruck would always tap to you
| Parecía que el ruck siempre te tocaría
|
| You never backed down with your hands on the footy
| Nunca retrocediste con las manos en el footy
|
| Relied on guts and muscle to get you through
| Confiado en las agallas y los músculos para ayudarte
|
| And, Ben, you had a body that was harder than iron
| Y, Ben, tenías un cuerpo que era más duro que el hierro.
|
| And, kid, you had a mind that was sharp as steel
| Y, niño, tenías una mente tan aguda como el acero
|
| And everybody knew it
| Y todos lo sabían
|
| I guess we all relied on your heart to keep beating
| Supongo que todos confiamos en tu corazón para seguir latiendo
|
| And the hurt to heal
| Y el dolor para sanar
|
| And you thought you could control it
| Y pensaste que podías controlarlo
|
| And we thought you would come back
| Y pensamos que volverías
|
| They sold something that took sadness and solved it
| Vendieron algo que se llevó la tristeza y la resolvió
|
| But Ben, you should have been scared of that
| Pero Ben, deberías haber tenido miedo de eso.
|
| Oh Ben, you should have been scared of that | Oh, Ben, deberías haber tenido miedo de eso. |
