Meaulnes

Will Oldham

Meaulnes

And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked

And he came by the way of a half-million murderers
And he came by the way of a long list of ironies
And he came by the way of the road to Sioux City
And he came by the way of the half-breeds and lesbians

And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked

And he thought it
Was in there but still wasn't happy,
He knew it was less than the way that it could be
But undaunted unshaven and an eagle in britches he
Set out again to unveil the earth's riches

And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked

And he came by the way that I said I was leaving,
The way that I'd take if I really was going
If I had a map, that is why I'm delaying
And if it wasn't in there I'd surely be staying

And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked
And he came by the way that he walked

Meaulnes

E ele veio pelo caminho que andou
E ele veio pelo caminho que andou
E ele veio pelo caminho que andou
E ele veio pelo caminho que andou

E ele veio pelo caminho de meio milhão de assassinos
E ele veio pelo caminho de uma longa lista de ironias
E ele veio pelo caminho da estrada para Sioux City
E ele veio pelo caminho dos mestiços e lésbicas

E ele veio pelo caminho que andou
E ele veio pelo caminho que andou
E ele veio pelo caminho que andou
E ele veio pelo caminho que andou

E ele pensou que
Estava ali, mas ainda não estava feliz,
Ele sabia que era menos do que poderia ser
Mas destemido, sem fazer a barba e com uma águia nas calças, ele
Partiu novamente para revelar as riquezas da terra

E ele veio pelo caminho que andou
E ele veio pelo caminho que andou
E ele veio pelo caminho que andou
E ele veio pelo caminho que andou

E ele veio pelo caminho que eu disse que estava saindo,
O caminho que eu tomaria se realmente estivesse indo
Se eu tivesse um mapa, é por isso que estou demorando
E se não estivesse ali, com certeza eu ficaria

E ele veio pelo caminho que andou
E ele veio pelo caminho que andou
E ele veio pelo caminho que andou
E ele veio pelo caminho que andou
