Nothing Like You TRADUÇÃO - Shawn Colvin (Impressão)

Nothing Like You

Four blocks up and two streets down,

I went back to my old hometown

Like a kid I ran and hid on cue

That's when times were really sad

Winter there was really bad

And we all just froze but for a chosen few

Did you ever see someone you knew

Holding fast and staying strong and true

And they were nothing like you?

Truth to tell and time to burn

I hit the wall at every turn

The ceiling cracked in half and I just flew

Poetry is what I heard

I was hanging onto every word

I was a lover for the world to woo

I have seen the top of Mt. Ventoux

I have seen a miracle or two

And they're N O T H I N G L I K E Y O U

You've been waiting for awhile

I can tell

Off my head and on the fence

Maybe there's no accidents

Anyway I'd say I have come to

So fool me once that might be fun

Fool me twice well that's been done

You can fool me everyday I won't say boo

I believe I have pulled a major coup

I believe I have boarded up the zoo

I believe I have dropped the other shoe

And there's N O T H I N G L I K E Y O U

Nada Como Você

Quatro quarteirões pra cima e duas ruas pra baixo,

Eu voltei pra minha velha cidade natal

Como uma criança, eu corri e me escondi na hora certa

Foi quando os tempos eram realmente tristes

O inverno lá era muito cruel

E todos nós congelamos, exceto alguns escolhidos

Você já viu alguém que conhecia

Firme e forte, se mantendo verdadeiro

E eles não eram nada como você?

Pra ser sincero e ter tempo de sobra

Eu bati na parede em cada esquina

O teto rachou ao meio e eu simplesmente voei

Poesia era o que eu ouvia

Eu estava agarrado a cada palavra

Eu era um amante para o mundo conquistar

Eu vi o topo do Monte Ventoux

Eu vi um milagre ou dois

E eles não são N A D A C O M O V O C Ê

Você tem esperado por um tempo

Eu consigo perceber

Fora da minha cabeça e em cima do muro

Talvez não haja acidentes

De qualquer forma, eu diria que cheguei a um ponto

Então me engane uma vez, isso pode ser divertido

Me engane duas vezes, bem, isso já aconteceu

Você pode me enganar todo dia, eu não vou dizer nada

Eu acredito que fiz um grande golpe

Eu acredito que fechei o zoológico

Eu acredito que deixei a outra parte cair

E não há N A D A C O M O V O C Ê
