I’ve been humming a high note I’ve been humming a high note Fui cantarolando uma nota alta Maybe something that I wrote Maybe something that I wrote Talvez algo que eu escrevi Out sailing in my boat Out sailing in my boat Saindo no meu barco I’m not really sure I’m not really sure Eu realmente não estou certo I’m still singing the same tune I’m still singing the same tune Eu ainda estou cantando a mesma melodia I’ve been kicking around since june I’ve been kicking around since june Fui chutando em torno desde junho All morning and afternoon All morning and afternoon Durante toda a manhã e à tarde Now it’s all a blur Now it’s all a blur Agora é tudo um borrão I’ve been listening to sea shells I’ve been listening to sea shells Eu tenho escutado conchas do mar To hear the stories that they tell To hear the stories that they tell Para ouvir as histórias que eles contam Of high times and tide swells Of high times and tide swells Tempos e swells maré alta That have yet to occur That have yet to occur Isso ainda tem que ocorrer Backsliding down the drain Backsliding down the drain Apostasia pelo ralo Partially taking all the blame Partially taking all the blame Parcialmente levando toda a culpa Chasing coins to fill the purse Chasing coins to fill the purse Perseguindo moedas para encher a bolsa Is it really better or for worse Is it really better or for worse É realmente o melhor ou para o pior Is it a blessing or a curse Is it a blessing or a curse É uma bênção ou uma maldição To pass the buck To pass the buck Para passar a bola Is it a bounty or a bust Is it a bounty or a bust É uma recompensa ou um busto Is it precious metal or just rust Is it precious metal or just rust É um metal precioso ou apenas ferrugem Well it seems it’s up to us Well it seems it’s up to us Bem, parece que cabe a nós So wish us luck So wish us luck Então, nós desejamos sorte I kept making a u-turn I kept making a u-turn Continuei fazendo uma inversão de marcha Ended up with a sunburn Ended up with a sunburn Terminou com uma queimadura solar But the lesson that I learned But the lesson that I learned Mas a lição que eu aprendi Was worth the skin that peeled Was worth the skin that peeled Valeu a pena a pele que descascou I climbed so many mountains I climbed so many mountains Subi tantas montanhas It’s not even worth counting It’s not even worth counting Não é nem vale a pena contar All the drinks in the fountain All the drinks in the fountain Todas as bebidas na fonte Before it was revealed Before it was revealed Antes de ter sido revelado From the copper to the kettle From the copper to the kettle Do cobre à chaleira The stamen to the petal The stamen to the petal O estame ao pétala We watch the value of sand dollars crumble We watch the value of sand dollars crumble Nós assistimos o valor de dólares de areia desmoronar
