Sydney 2013

Benjamin Francis Leftwich, Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly

Lyrics Translation

[Verse 1]
Shaking on the plane
Mercy in my headphones
I guess that I was scared
But I had a six-month window
Liz was in the car
Waiting at the airport
I was unprepared
To say goodbye

[Chorus]
Life got heavy, I got carried away
I was in the middle of a summer of pain
Didn't know the feeling
But I wanted to stay in love

[Verse 2]
Matthew had the coke
Billy had the friends out
Britney had the sweet, sweet smile
That I could get my head 'round
Frankie's in the night
Pizza by the deep black water
Bodies on the beach
Cooking like a peach
Either in my head
Either out of reach

[Chorus]
Life got heavy, I got carried away
Ran out of the pills, I was staying awake
Didn't know the feeling
But I wanted to break the ties

[Bridge]
Maybe in a way I push my feelings right down
Looking for an easy fix to black them all out
Maybe there was grace in all the ways I fell down
So I could be face to face with where I was found

[Chorus]
Hey, no worries, couldn't do it again
One too many and I cannot pretend
Found me a lover when I needed to find a friend

[Outro]
When Liz is in the car
Smiling at the airport
She says I've come far
Lots has happened
I guess it really shows
How slowly we surrender
I let God and I let go
When I'm in Sydney I remember

[Tradução de "Sydney 2013" com Benjamin Francis Leftwich]

[Verso 1]
Tremendo no avião
Misericórdia em meus fones
Acho que eu estava assustado
Mas eu tinha uma janela de seis meses
Liz estava no carro
Esperando no aeroporto
Eu não estava preparado
Para dizer adeus

[Refrão]
A vida ficou pesada, eu me deixei carregar
Eu estava no meio de um verão de dor
Não conhecia a sensação
Mas queria ficar apaixonado

[Verso 2]
Matthew tinha a coca
Billy saiu com os amigos
Britney tinha um doce, doce sorriso
Que mexia com minha cabeça
Frankie estava na noite
Pizza ao lado da profunda água negra
Corpos na praia
Cozinhando como pêssego
Seja em minha cabeça
Seja fora de alcance

[Refrão]
A vida ficou pesada, eu me deixei carregar
Fiquei sem comprimidos, estava ficando acordado
Não conhecia a sensação
Mas queria arrebentar as amarras

[Ponte]
Talvez de alguma forma eu afogue meus sentimentos
Procurando uma forma fácil de acabar com eles
Talvez havia graça em todas as formas que caí
Para que eu pudesse ficar cara a cara com onde fui achado

[Refrão]
Ei, sem problemas, não conseguiria fazer de novo
Um demais e não posso fingir
Encontrei um amor quando precisava de um amigo

[Saída]
Quando Liz está no carro
Sorrindo no aeroporto
Ela diz: que eu vim de longe
Aconteceu muita coisa
Acho que realmente mostra
Como nos rendemos devagar
Eu deixei deus e eu abri mão
Quando estou em Sydney, eu me lembro
