The Kid Could Play

O Garoto Sabia Tocar

The Kid Could Play

Rodando pela cidade, já era tarde de sábado à noiteSlippin' round town it was late on a Saturday night
A música estourando na viela, sob o céu de neonMusic blastin' down the alleyway out into the neon sky
Bem, o garoto estava arrasando com aquele violão na mãoWell, the Kid was rockin' with that gold top in his hands
Fazendo a galera pirarGot the place goin' crazy
Movendo-se ao som da bandaMoving to the music of the band

Oh, tanta promessa esperandoOh, such promise lay in waiting
Toda a vida antecipandoAll his life anticipating

Tocar música era seu único desejoPlayin' music was his one desire
Tudo que ele queria era incendiar a noiteAll he wants to do is set the night on fire
Vivendo esse sonho todo diaLivin' that dream out every day
Todo mundo sabia que o garoto sabia tocarEverybody knew that the kid could play

Todo mundo conhecia a mágica rolando lá embaixoEverybody knew the magic goin' on down there
Fazendo fila toda noiteLining up every night
Pagando o preço pra ter sua partePay the price to get their share
A notícia se espalhando pela cidadeWord spreadin' round town
Como fogo selvagem fora de controleLike wildfire out of control
Fazia o garoto tocar músicaHad the kid playing music
Vindo do fundo da sua almaComing from the bottom of his soul

Oh, mas promessas foram quebradasOh, but promises were broken
E despedidas ficaram sem palavrasAnd goodbyes were left unspoken

Tocar música era seu único desejoPlayin' music was his one desire
Tudo que ele queria era incendiar a noiteAll he wants to do is set the night on fire
Vivendo esse sonho todo diaLivin' that dream out every day
Todo mundo sabia que o garoto sabia tocarEverybody knew that the kid could play
O garoto sabia tocarThe kid could play

No centro do holofote brilhanteIn the center of the bright spot light
Dando tudo de si toda noitePlaying his heart out every night
Vivendo esse sonho todo diaLiving that dream out every day
Todo mundo sabia que o garoto sabia tocarEverybody knew that the kid could play
Oh, o garoto sabia tocarOh, the kid could play

Uma perda de inocência que o levou à margemA loss of innocence that drove him to the fringe
Um ato final de desespero no fimA final act of desperation in the end
E eu ainda consigo ouvir a música soprando pelo ventoAnd I can still hear music borne upon the wind

Tocar música era seu único desejoPlayin' music was his one desire
Tudo que ele queria era incendiar a noiteAll he wants to do is set the night on fire
Vivendo esse sonho todo diaLivin' that dream out every day
Todo mundo sabia que o garoto sabia tocarEverybody knew that the kid could play
O garoto sabia tocarThe kid could play

No centro do holofote brilhanteIn the center of the bright spot light
Dando tudo de si toda noitePlaying his heart out every night
Vivendo seu sonho de todas as formasLiving his dream out in every way
Todo mundo sabia que o garoto sabia tocarEverybody knew that the kid could play
O garoto sabia tocarThe kid could play
Oh, o garoto sabia tocarOh, the kid could play
