The Man Who Never Was

O Homem Que Nunca Foi

The Man Who Never Was

Uma vez, bem cedo numa manhã cristalinaOnce, early on a crystal morning
Um soco no rosto delaA punch at her hus's
Veio sem avisoIt came without a warning
O homem que nunca foiThe man who never was
E que nunca seráAnd who never will be
Seu cavalo está levemente ferradoHis horse is slightly shored
Número dois, vinte e trêsNumber two score and three

Eu o avistei sem corI spotted him unpaled
Contra uma nuvem assustadaAgainst a frightened cloud
Sabia pela forma como ele iaKnew from the way he was going
Que estava indo pro sulHe was heading south
O homem que nunca foiThe man who never was
E que nunca seráAnd who never will be
Correndo pelo arRacing through the air
Preferindo ao chão ou ao marIn preferance to land or sea

O homem que nunca foiThe man who never was
Era o homem que nunca éWas the man who never is
E o homem que nunca foi ou éAnd the man who never was or is
Sempre se sentiria assimWould always feel like this
E se eu fosse o homemAnd if I were the man
Que nunca foi ou éWho never was or is
Sempre sentiria que havia algoI would always feel there was something
Que eu perdi ou deixei passarI had missed or lost

Gritando para uma bordaShouting to a steedge
Enquanto se espalhavam pelo céuAs they spread across the sky
Pegando impulsoPicking up spin
Enquanto as nuvens começavam a secarAs the clouds began to dry
O homem que nunca foiThe man who never was
E que nunca seráAnd who never will be
Desenhando um caminho cansado de sua infinidadeTracing a weary path of his infinity
