Water of Love

MARK KNOPFLER

Lyrics Translation

High and dry in the long hot day
Lost and lonely every way
Got the flats all around me sky up above
Yes I need a little water of love

I've been too and long lonely and my heart feels pain
Crying out for some soothing rain
I believe I have taken enough
Yes I need a little water of love

Water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Some day baby when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me

There's a bird up in a tree sitting up high
Just waiting for me to die
If I don't get some water soon
I'll be dead and gone in the afternoon

Water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Some day baby when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me

Once I had a woman I could call my own
Once I had a woman now my woman she gone
Once there was a river now there's a stone
You know it's evil then you're living alone

Water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Some day baby when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me, carry that

Water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Some day baby when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me

High and dry in the long hot day
Alto e seco no longo dia quente
Lost and lonely every way
Perdido e solitário de todas as maneiras
Got the flats all around me sky up above
Tenho os planos todos ao meu redor, céu acima
Yes I need a little water of love
Sim, eu preciso de um pouco de água do amor
I've been too and long lonely and my heart feels pain
Estive muito tempo sozinho e meu coração sente dor
Crying out for some soothing rain
Chorando por alguma chuva calmante
I believe I have taken enough
Acredito que já aguentei o suficiente
Yes I need a little water of love
Sim, eu preciso de um pouco de água do amor
Water of love deep in the ground
Água do amor, profunda no chão
But there ain't no water here to be found
Mas não há água aqui para ser encontrada
Some day baby when the river runs free
Um dia, baby, quando o rio correr livre
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
Vai trazer essa água do amor para mim
There's a bird up in a tree sitting up high
Há um pássaro em uma árvore, sentado bem alto
Just waiting for me to die
Apenas esperando por mim para morrer
If I don't get some water soon
Se eu não conseguir água logo
I'll be dead and gone in the afternoon
Estarei morto e ido à tarde
Water of love deep in the ground
Água do amor, profunda no chão
But there ain't no water here to be found
Mas não há água aqui para ser encontrada
Some day baby when the river runs free
Um dia, baby, quando o rio correr livre
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
Vai trazer essa água do amor para mim
Once I had a woman I could call my own
Uma vez eu tive uma mulher que eu podia chamar de minha
Once I had a woman now my woman she gone
Uma vez eu tive uma mulher, agora minha mulher se foi
Once there was a river now there's a stone
Uma vez havia um rio, agora há uma pedra
You know it's evil then you're living alone
Você sabe que é mal quando está vivendo sozinho
Water of love deep in the ground
Água do amor, profunda no chão
But there ain't no water here to be found
Mas não há água aqui para ser encontrada
Some day baby when the river runs free
Um dia, baby, quando o rio correr livre
It's gonna carry that water of love to me, carry that
Vai trazer essa água do amor para mim, trazer isso
Water of love deep in the ground
Água do amor, profunda no chão
But there ain't no water here to be found
Mas não há água aqui para ser encontrada
Some day baby when the river runs free
Um dia, baby, quando o rio correr livre
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
Vai trazer essa água do amor para mim
High and dry in the long hot day
Alto y seco en el largo día caluroso
Lost and lonely every way
Perdido y solitario en todos los sentidos
Got the flats all around me sky up above
Tengo las llanuras a mi alrededor, el cielo arriba
Yes I need a little water of love
Sí, necesito un poco de agua de amor
I've been too and long lonely and my heart feels pain
He estado demasiado tiempo solo y mi corazón siente dolor
Crying out for some soothing rain
Llorando por alguna lluvia calmante
I believe I have taken enough
Creo que he soportado suficiente
Yes I need a little water of love
Sí, necesito un poco de agua de amor
Water of love deep in the ground
Agua de amor profunda en el suelo
But there ain't no water here to be found
Pero no hay agua aquí para ser encontrada
Some day baby when the river runs free
Algún día, bebé, cuando el río corra libre
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
Va a llevar esa agua de amor hacia mí
There's a bird up in a tree sitting up high
Hay un pájaro en un árbol sentado muy alto
Just waiting for me to die
Solo esperando a que yo muera
If I don't get some water soon
Si no consigo agua pronto
I'll be dead and gone in the afternoon
Estaré muerto y desaparecido en la tarde
Water of love deep in the ground
Agua de amor profunda en el suelo
But there ain't no water here to be found
Pero no hay agua aquí para ser encontrada
Some day baby when the river runs free
Algún día, bebé, cuando el río corra libre
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
Va a llevar esa agua de amor hacia mí
Once I had a woman I could call my own
Una vez tuve una mujer que podía llamar mía
Once I had a woman now my woman she gone
Una vez tuve una mujer, ahora mi mujer se ha ido
Once there was a river now there's a stone
Una vez hubo un río, ahora hay una piedra
You know it's evil then you're living alone
Sabes que es malo cuando estás viviendo solo
Water of love deep in the ground
Agua de amor profunda en el suelo
But there ain't no water here to be found
Pero no hay agua aquí para ser encontrada

Algún día, bebé, cuando el río corra libre
It's gonna carry that water of love to me, carry that
Va a llevar esa agua de amor hacia mí, llevar eso

But there ain't no water here to be found
Pero no hay agua aquí para ser encontrada

Just waiting for me to die
Juste en attendant que je meure
