Simple Life Simple Life Vida Simples Elton John Elton John Elton John Music by Elton John/Lyrics by Bernie Taupin Music by Elton John/Lyrics by Bernie Taupin Music by Elton John/Lyrics by Bernie Taupin Available on the album The One Available on the album The One Available on the album The One There's a breakdown on the runway There's a breakdown on the runway And the timeless flights are gone And the timeless flights are gone Há uma paralisação na pista de pouso I'm a year ahead of myself these days I'm a year ahead of myself these days E os vôos eternos se foram And I'm locomotive strong And I'm locomotive strong Estou um ano a minha frente estes dias My city spread like cannon fire My city spread like cannon fire E estou forte como um trem In a yellow nervous state In a yellow nervous state Minha cidade se espalhou como um tiro de canhão I can't cut the ties that bind me I can't cut the ties that bind me Num estado nervoso infernal To horoscopes and fate To horoscopes and fate Não posso cortar os laços que me prendem And I won't break and I won't bend And I won't break and I won't bend Ao horóscopos e ao destino But someday soon we'll sail away But someday soon we'll sail away To innocence and the bitter end To innocence and the bitter end E eu não me despedaçarei e não me curvarei And I won't break and I won't bend And I won't break and I won't bend Mas num dia próximo nos velejaremos para longe And with the last breath we ever take And with the last breath we ever take Para a inocência e um amargo fim We're gonna get back to the simple life again We're gonna get back to the simple life again E eu não me despedaçarei e não me curvarei When we break out of this blindfold When we break out of this blindfold E com o último fôlego que tomarmos I'm gonna take you from this place I'm gonna take you from this place Nós vamos retornar à vida simples novamente Until we're free from this ball and chain Until we're free from this ball and chain I'm still hard behind the eight I'm still hard behind the eight My city beats like hammered steel My city beats like hammered steel Quando nos livrarmos desta venda On a shallow cruel rock On a shallow cruel rock Vou levá-la a este lugar If we could walk proud after midnight If we could walk proud after midnight Até estarmos livres destes grilhões We'd never have to stop We'd never have to stop Ainda estou em grande apuro Minha cidade pulsa como aço martelado
