What Makes A Man

Dallas John Green

Lyrics Translation

I can hear my train comin'
It's a lonesome and distant cry
I can hear my train comin'
Now I'm runnin' for my life
What makes a man walk away from his mind?
I think I know
I think I might know

I can feel the wind blowin'
It's sending shivers down my spine
I can feel the wind blowin'
It shakes the trees and the power lines
What makes a man spend his whole life in disguise?
I think I know
I think I might know

(What makes a man?)
I think I might know (what makes a man?)
I think I might know (what makes a man?)
No oh oh

I can see the sun settin'
It's casting shadows on the sea
I can see the sun, it's settings
It's getting colder, starting to freeze
What makes a man want to break a heart with ease?
I think I know
I think I might know

(What makes a man?)
I think I might know (what makes a man?)
I think I might know (what makes a man?)
No oh oh

Well I can hear my train comin'
Looks like time is not on my side
Well I can hear my train comin'
I'm still runnin' for my life
What makes a man pray, when he's about to die?
I think I know
I think I might know

(What makes a man?)
I think I might know (what makes a man?)
I think I might know (what makes a man?)
Oh oh oh

(What makes a man?)
I think I might know (what makes a man?)
I think I might know (what makes a man?)
No oh oh

I can hear my train comin'
Posso ouvir meu trem chegando
It's a lonesome and distant cry
É um choro solitário e distante
I can hear my train comin'
Posso ouvir meu trem chegando
Now I'm runnin' for my life
Agora estou correndo pela minha vida
What makes a man walk away from his mind?
O que faz um homem se afastar de sua mente?
I think I know
Eu acho que sei
I think I might know
Eu acho que posso saber
I can feel the wind blowin'
Posso sentir o vento soprando
It's sending shivers down my spine
Está enviando arrepios pela minha espinha
I can feel the wind blowin'
Posso sentir o vento soprando
It shakes the trees and the power lines
Ele sacode as árvores e as linhas de energia
What makes a man spend his whole life in disguise?
O que faz um homem passar a vida inteira disfarçado?
I think I know
Eu acho que sei
I think I might know
Eu acho que posso saber
(What makes a man?)
(O que faz um homem?)
I think I might know (what makes a man?)
Eu acho que posso saber (o que faz um homem?)
I think I might know (what makes a man?)
Eu acho que posso saber (o que faz um homem?)
No oh oh
Não oh oh
I can see the sun settin'
Posso ver o sol se pondo
It's casting shadows on the sea
Está lançando sombras no mar
I can see the sun, it's settings
Posso ver o sol, está se pondo
It's getting colder, starting to freeze
Está ficando mais frio, começando a congelar
What makes a man want to break a heart with ease?
O que faz um homem querer partir um coração com facilidade?
I think I know
Eu acho que sei
I think I might know
Eu acho que posso saber
(What makes a man?)

Well I can hear my train comin'
Bem, posso ouvir meu trem chegando
Looks like time is not on my side
Parece que o tempo não está do meu lado
Well I can hear my train comin'
Bem, posso ouvir meu trem chegando
I'm still runnin' for my life
Ainda estou correndo pela minha vida
What makes a man pray, when he's about to die?
O que faz um homem rezar, quando está prestes a morrer?

I think I know
Creo que lo sé
I think I might know
Creo que puedo saberlo
I can feel the wind blowin'
Puedo sentir el viento soplar
It's sending shivers down my spine
Manda temblores por mi espalda
I can feel the wind blowin'
Puedo sentir el viento soplar
It shakes the trees and the power lines
Sacude los árboles y los cables de electricidad
What makes a man spend his whole life in disguise?

Puedo ver al sol ponerse
It's casting shadows on the sea
Proyectando sombras sobre el mar

It's getting colder, starting to freeze
Se hace más frío, comienza a helar
