Long Way Round

Caminho Longo

Long Way Round

Eu fiquei parado olhando pra águaI Stood and Looked Across the Water
Eu tinha que chegar do outro ladoI Had to Get to the Other Side
Porque eu sabia que você estaria esperandoBecause I Knew That You'd Be Waiting
Eu não queria fazer o caminho longoI Didn't Want to Take the Long Way Round

O capitão disse que o barco ia zarparThe Captain Said the Ship Was Leaving
E que era melhor a gente embarcarAnd That We'd Better Get On Board
Eu me acomodei pra ver o sol nascerI Settled Down to Watch the Sunrise
E me perguntei se veria o sol se pôrAnd Wondered If I'd See the Sun Go Down

O mar estava agitado e o vento uivavaThe Sea Was Rough and the Wind Was Howling
Mas eu não ia por outro caminhoBut I Was ?letting no Other? Way
Eu não me importava com o tempoI Didn't Care About the Weather
Porque eu sabia que você estaria esperandoBecause I Knew That You'd Be Waiting
Eu não queria fazer o caminho longoI Didn't Want to Take the Long Way Round

Então um estranho sentou ao meu ladoThen a Stranger Sat Beside Me
Era meu irmão disfarçadoIt Was My Brother in Disguise
Ele disse que sabia pra onde eu iaHe Said He Knew Where I Was Going
Me perguntou por que eu fiz o caminho longoHe Asked Me Why I Took the Long Way Round

O mar estava agitado e o vento uivavaThe Sea Was Rough and the Wind Was Howling
Mas eu não ia por outro caminhoBut I Was ?letting no Other? Way
Eu não ouvi o estranhoI Didn't Listen to the Stranger
Porque eu sabia que você estaria esperandoBecause I Knew That You'd Be Waiting
Eu não queria fazer o caminho longoI Didn't Want to Take the Long Way Round

Finalmente, cheguei ao meu destinoAt Last, I Came to My Destination
O estranho se virou e foi emboraThe Stranger Turned and Walked Away
Ele não sabia pra onde estava indoHe Didn't Know Where He Was Going
Disse que tinha que fazer o caminho longoHe Said He Had to Take the Long Way Round

Eu fiquei parado olhando pra águaI Stood and Looked Across the Water
Pensei no que deixei pra trásI Thought of What I'd Left Behind
Porque eu sabia que você estaria esperandoBecause I Knew That You'd Be Waiting
Eu não queria fazer o caminho longoI Didn't Want to Take the Long Way Round
