There are times that walk from you like some passing afternoon There are times that walk from you like some passing afternoon Há épocas que passam por você. como os finais de tarde Summer warmed the open window of her honeymoon Summer warmed the open window of her honeymoon O verão aqueceu a janela aberta da lua-de-mel dela And she chose a yard to burn but the ground remembers her And she chose a yard to burn but the ground remembers her E ela escolheu um quintal para queimar mas o chão a faz lembrar Wooden spoons, her children stir her bougainvillea blooms Wooden spoons, her children stir her bougainvillea blooms das colheres de jardineiro, seus filhos mexendo nas suas flores de Três Marias. There are things that drift away like our endless, numbered days There are things that drift away like our endless, numbered days Há coisas que passam rápido, como nossos intermináveis e numerosos dias Autumn blew the quilt right off the perfect bed she made Autumn blew the quilt right off the perfect bed she made O outono desarrumou a perfeita arrumação de cama que ela fez And she's chosen to believe in the hymns her mother sings And she's chosen to believe in the hymns her mother sings E ela escolhe acreditar nos hinos que sua mãe canta Sunday pulls its children from the piles of fallen leaves Sunday pulls its children from the piles of fallen leaves Domingo tira seus filhos das pilhas de folhas caídas.

There are things we can't recall, blind as night that finds us all There are things we can't recall, blind as night that finds us all Há coisas que não podemos recordar, cegas como a noite que encontra a todos nós Winter tucks her children in, her fragile china dolls Winter tucks her children in, her fragile china dolls O inverno costura seus filhos nas frágeis bonecas de porcelanas dela But my hands remember hers, rolling around the shaded ferns But my hands remember hers, rolling around the shaded ferns Mas minhas mãos lembram às dela passando pela sombra das samambaias Naked arms, her secrets still like songs I'd never learned Naked arms, her secrets still like songs I'd never learned Braços nus, seus segredos ainda como músicas que eu nunca aprendi. There are names across the sea, only now I do believe There are names across the sea, only now I do believe Há nomes do outro lado do mar, só agora eu acredito Sometimes, with the window closed, she'll sit and think of me Sometimes, with the window closed, she'll sit and think of me Algumas vezes com a janela fechada, ela vai sentar e pensar em mim But she'll mend his tattered clothes and they'll kiss as if they know But she'll mend his tattered clothes and they'll kiss as if they know Mas vai remendar a roupa esfarrapada dele e eles se beijarão como se soubessem que... A baby sleeps in all our bones, so scared to be alone A baby sleeps in all our bones, so scared to be alone Um bebê dorme em cada pedaço de nós, com medo de ficar sozinho. Springtime Springtime Primavera.
