Now in this faraway land Now in this faraway land Agora nesta terra distante Strange that the palms of my hands Strange that the palms of my hands Estranho que as palmas das minhas mãos Should be damp with expectancy Should be damp with expectancy deveriam estar úmidas de expectativa Spring, and the air's turning mild Spring, and the air's turning mild Primavera, e o ar está ficando leve City lights and the glimpse of a child City lights and the glimpse of a child As luzes da cidade e o vislumbrar de uma criança Of the alleyway infantry Of the alleyway infantry da infantaria do beco Friends, do they know what I mean? Friends, do they know what I mean? Amigos - Eles sabem o que quero dizer? Rain and the gathering green Rain and the gathering green Chuva e o recolhimento verde Of an afternoon out of town Of an afternoon out of town de uma tarde fora da cidade But lord I had to go But lord I had to go Mas, senhor, eu tinha de ir The trail was laid too slow behind me The trail was laid too slow behind me A trilha foi se criando devagar atrás de mim To face the call of fame To face the call of fame Para encarar o chamado da fama Or make a drunkard's name for me Or make a drunkard's name for me ou criar um nome de bêbado para mim Though now this better life Though now this better life Apesar disso, esta vida melhor Has brought a different understanding Has brought a different understanding me trouxe um entender diferente And from these endless days And from these endless days E desses dias intermináveis Shall come a broader sympathy Shall come a broader sympathy deverá vir uma simpatia mais ampla And though I count the hours And though I count the hours E apesar de estar contando as horas To be alone's no injury To be alone's no injury estar sozinho não é tão doloroso My home was a place by the sand My home was a place by the sand Minha casa era um lugar na areia Cliffs and a military band Cliffs and a military band Falésias e uma banda militar Blew an air of normality Blew an air of normality soprava um ar de normalidade
