That Was Me

Aquele Era Eu

That Was Me

Aquele era eu, no acampamento de escoteiros, na peça da escola
That was me, in the scout camp, in the school play
Pá e balde junto ao mar, aquele era eu
Spade and bucket by the sea, that was me

Aquele era eu, jogando conkers no ponto de ônibus
That was me, playing conkers at the bus stop
Num cobertor nos sinos azuis, aquele era eu
On a blanket in the blue bells, that was me

O mesmo eu que está de pé aqui agora
The same me that stands here now
Quando eu penso que todas essas coisas
When I think that all this stuff
Podem fazer uma vida que é bem difícil de se suportar, aquele era eu
Can make a life that's pretty hard to take it in, that was me

Bem, aquele era eu, íris reais no rio
Well that was me, royal iris, on the river
Mersy no ritmo da banda, aquele era eu
Mersy beat n' with the band, that was me

É, aquele era eu, suando teias de aranha sob contrato
Yeah, that was me, sweating cobwebs under contract
No porão, na tv, aquele era eu
In the cellar, on tv, that was me

O mesmo eu que está de pé aqui agora
The same me that stands here now
Se o destino concordou com tudo isso
If fate agreed that all of this
Para fazer uma vida, quem sou para discordar, aquele era eu
To make a lifetime, who am I to disagree, that was me

Aquele era eu, accapella no altar
That was me, accapella at the alter
No meio do quadro, aquele era eu
In the middle of the picture, that was me

Aquele era eu na festa, suando teias de aranha
That was me at the party, sweatin' cobwebs
No porão, na tv, é, aquele era eu
In a cellar on tv ya that was me

O mesmo eu que está de pé aqui agora
The same me that stands here now
Quando eu penso que todas essas coisas
When I think that all this stuff
Podem fazer uma vida que é bem difícil de se suportar, aquele era eu
Can make a life that's pretty hard to take it in, that was me
Aquele era eu, é, aquele era eu!
That was me, ya, that was me!
