Sandy's Song

Canção da Sandy

And the last thing I'd recall And the last thing I'd recall E a última coisa de que eu me lembraria Her body standing on the stove Her body standing on the stove O corpo dela parado perto do fogão Sandy wiping her grey eyes Sandy wiping her grey eyes Sandy esfregando seus olhos cinzentos I was pleased and frightened I was pleased and frightened Eu estava contente e assustada To see a grownup woman cry To see a grownup woman cry Por ver uma mulher crescida chorando She blamed her housemaid for her mind She blamed her housemaid for her mind Ela culpou a sua criada por sua mente But I think that they all knew it had to happen some time But I think that they all knew it had to happen some time Mas acho que todos sabiam que isso tinha de acontecer uma hora I had rushed home from school I had rushed home from school Fui correndo de casa para a escola To see my favorite show To see my favorite show Para ver a minha exibição favorita And as it happened, it was deadly cold that day And as it happened, it was deadly cold that day E assim que aconteceu, aquele dia foi mortalmente frio And as I peeled my mittens frozen to my wrists with snow And as I peeled my mittens frozen to my wrists with snow E assim que descamei as minhas mitenes, a neve congelou os meus pulsos I swore I heard a voice come from the living room I swore I heard a voice come from the living room Jurei que ouvi uma voz vir da sala de estar And say: And say: E disse: "Oh...God "Oh...God "Oh, Deus Oh...God Oh...God Oh, Deus Oh...well..." Oh...well..." Oh... bem" And when I peered into that room And when I peered into that room E quando entrei naquele cômodo My little afternoon took sick My little afternoon took sick Minha pequena tarde se tornou doentia Sandy hanging from the light Sandy hanging from the light Sandy pendurada na luz Her Levis wrapped around her neck Her Levis wrapped around her neck Sua calça Levis amarrada em seu pescoço It was a sight to see It was a sight to see Levou um instante para ver Old Sandy finally seeing me Old Sandy finally seeing me A velha Sandy finalmente estava me vendo And though she couldn't speak And though she couldn't speak E pensei que ela não poderia falar I had a sinking feeling that she would have said: I had a sinking feeling that she would have said: Eu tive uma sensação profunda de que ela teria dito "Oh, darling....more mascara" "Oh, darling....more mascara" "Oh, querida... mais rímel" She looked so peaceful in the air She looked so peaceful in the air Ela parecia tão cheia de paz no ar The lightbulb shining in her hair The lightbulb shining in her hair A lâmpada brilhando em seu cabelo Her face was free Her face was free Seu rosto estava livre It frightened me It frightened me Isso me assustou She looked happy She looked happy Ela parecia feliz I guess she found the difference I guess she found the difference Acho que ela encontrou a diferença And I thought about the joke And I thought about the joke E eu pensei na piada Where the man keeps up his rotting wife Where the man keeps up his rotting wife Em que o homem mantem sua esposa apodrecendo She had maggots in her mouth She had maggots in her mouth Ela tinha vermes na boca I wonder if what she thought right now I wonder if what she thought right now Imaginei o que ela teria pensado agora And then the car drove up And then the car drove up E, então, o carro chegou And then the car drove up And then the car drove up E, então, o carro chegou And I remember sleeping And I remember sleeping E eu me lembro de estar dormindo And I remember sleeping... And I remember sleeping... E eu me lembro de estar dormindo... And they wrapped her up and drove away And they wrapped her up and drove away E eles a embalaram e a levaram para longe And now I have this crazy fantasy... And now I have this crazy fantasy... E agora eu tenho essa fantasia estranha... What if Sandy died in front of me? What if Sandy died in front of me? E se Sandy tivesse morrido na minha frente?
