Lyrics Translation

I tell you I can visualize it all
Too real it all seems
But once again
Runnin' away with me
But once again
Runnin' away with me
This couldn't be a dream
Runnin' away with me
Runnin' away with me

And I stop myself for a minute
See if my heart's still in it
Say a few things just to win it
Funny how it works out, innit?
And I told her, "Some things have their time
How can I be yours if you're not mine?"
She said, "They should take this pain
And give it a name"

Tonight, I wish I was your boy
(Run away from me, run away from me) I
(Run away from me, run away from me)
Tonight (tonight), I think I fucked it royally
(Run away from me, run away from me)
(Run away from me, run away from me)

Give yourself a new name
Change your voice on the train
Have a complain about your fame
Tell me that it's all a rigged game
And she told me, "Some things just take time
How can you be sure if you won't try?"
She said, "I guess I'll take this pain
Instead of your name"

Tonight, I wish I was your boy
(Run away from me, run away from me) I
(Run away from me, run away from me)
Tonight (tonight), I think I fucked it royally
(Run away from me, run away from me)
(Run away from me, run away from me)

And it's been playing on my mind
Unfortunately, I've been to this place in my life
Far too many times
Sunday's nearly over so I'll just lie awake

Tonight, I wish I was your boy
I
Tonight, I think I fucked it royally

And tonight, I wish I was your boy
(Run away from me, run away from me) I
(Run away from me, run away from me)
Tonight (tonight), I think I fucked it royally
(Run away from me, run away from me)
(Run away from me, run away from me)

I tell you I can visualize it all
Eu te digo que consigo visualizar tudo
Too real it all seems
Tudo parece tão real
But once again
Mas mais uma vez
Runnin' away with me
Fugindo comigo
But once again
Mas mais uma vez
Runnin' away with me
Fugindo comigo
This couldn't be a dream
Isso não poderia ser um sonho
Runnin' away with me
Fugindo comigo
Runnin' away with me
Fugindo comigo
And I stop myself for a minute
E eu me detenho por um minuto
See if my heart's still in it
Vejo se meu coração ainda está nisso
Say a few things just to win it
Digo algumas coisas só para ganhar
Funny how it works out, innit?
Engraçado como tudo se resolve, não é?
And I told her, "Some things have their time
E eu disse a ela, "Algumas coisas têm seu tempo
How can I be yours if you're not mine?"
Como posso ser seu se você não é minha?"
She said, "They should take this pain
Ela disse, "Eles deveriam pegar essa dor
And give it a name"
E dar-lhe um nome"
Tonight, I wish I was your boy
Hoje à noite, eu queria ser seu garoto
(Run away from me, run away from me) I
(Fuja de mim, fuja de mim) Eu
(Run away from me, run away from me)
(Fuja de mim, fuja de mim)
Tonight (tonight), I think I fucked it royally
Hoje à noite (hoje à noite), acho que estraguei tudo
(Run away from me, run away from me)
(Fuja de mim, fuja de mim)
(Run away from me, run away from me)
(Fuja de mim, fuja de mim)
Give yourself a new name
Dê a si mesmo um novo nome
Change your voice on the train
Mude sua voz no trem
Have a complain about your fame
Reclame sobre sua fama
Tell me that it's all a rigged game
Diga-me que tudo é um jogo manipulado
And she told me, "Some things just take time
E ela me disse, "Algumas coisas levam tempo
How can you be sure if you won't try?"
Como você pode ter certeza se não tentar?"
She said, "I guess I'll take this pain
Ela disse, "Acho que vou pegar essa dor
Instead of your name"
Em vez do seu nome"
Tonight, I wish I was your boy
Hoje à noite, eu queria ser seu garoto
(Run away from me, run away from me) I
(Fuja de mim, fuja de mim) Eu
(Run away from me, run away from me)
(Fuja de mim, fuja de mim)
Tonight (tonight), I think I fucked it royally
Hoje à noite (hoje à noite), acho que estraguei tudo
(Run away from me, run away from me)
(Fuja de mim, fuja de mim)
(Run away from me, run away from me)
(Fuja de mim, fuja de mim)
And it's been playing on my mind
E isso tem ocupado minha mente
Unfortunately, I've been to this place in my life
Infelizmente, já estive neste lugar na minha vida
Far too many times
Muitas vezes
Sunday's nearly over so I'll just lie awake

(Fuja de mim, fuja de mim)
I tell you I can visualize it all
Te digo que puedo visualizarlo todo
Too real it all seems
Demasiado real parece todo
But once again
Pero una vez más
Runnin' away with me
Huyendo conmigo
But once again
Pero una vez más
Runnin' away with me
Huyendo conmigo
This couldn't be a dream
Esto no podría ser un sueño
Runnin' away with me
Huyendo conmigo
Runnin' away with me
Huyendo conmigo
And I stop myself for a minute
Y me detengo a mí mismo por un minuto
See if my heart's still in it
Veo si mi corazón sigue en ello
Say a few things just to win it
Digo algunas cosas solo para ganarlo
Funny how it works out, innit?
Es curioso cómo funciona, ¿verdad?
And I told her, "Some things have their time

And give it a name"
Y darle un nombre"

(Huye de mí, huye de mí)
Give yourself a new name
Dale un nuevo nombre a ti mismo
Change your voice on the train
Cambia tu voz en el tren
Have a complain about your fame
Queja sobre tu fama
Tell me that it's all a rigged game
Dime que todo es un juego amañado
And she told me, "Some things just take time
Y ella me dijo, "Algunas cosas simplemente toman tiempo
How can you be sure if you won't try?"
¿Cómo puedes estar seguro si no lo intentas?"
She said, "I guess I'll take this pain
Ella dijo, "Supongo que tomaré este dolor
Instead of your name"
En lugar de tu nombre"

Unfortunately, I've been to this place in my life
Desafortunadamente, he estado en este lugar en mi vida
Far too many times
Demasiadas veces

Donne-toi un nouveau nom
Change your voice on the train
Change ta voix dans le train
Have a complain about your fame
Avoir une plainte sur ta célébrité
Tell me that it's all a rigged game

How can you be sure if you won't try?"

How can you be sure if you won't try?"
Wie kannst du sicher sein, wenn du es nicht versuchst?“

Instead of your name"
Anstatt deinen Namen“
