I Was Meant For The Stage
I was meant for the stage,
I was meant for the curtain.
I was meant to tread these boards,
Of this much I am certain.
I was meant for the crowd,
I was meant for the shouting.
I was meant to raise these hands
With quiet all about me.
Oh, Oh.
Mother, please be proud.
Father, be forgiving.
Even though you told me
'Son, you'll never make a living.'
Oh, oh.
From the floorboards to the flys,
Here I was fated to reside.
And as I take my final bow,
Was there ever any doubt?
And as the spotlights fade away,
And you're escorted through the foyer,
You will resume your callow ways,
But I was meant for the stage.
The heavens at my birth
Intended me for stardom,
Rays of light shone down on me
And all my sins were pardoned.
I was meant for applause.
I was meant for derision.
Nothing short of fate itself
Has affected my decision.
Oh, oh.
And from the floorboards to the flys,
Here I was fated to reside.
And as I take my final bow,
Was there ever any doubt?
And as the spotlights fade away,
And you're escorted through the foyer,
You will resume your callow ways,
But I was meant for the stage.
I Was Meant For The Stage (Tradução)
Eu fui feito para o teatro
Eu fui feito para as cortinas
Eu fui feito para pisar nessas tábuas
Disso eu tenho certeza
Eu fui feito para a multidão
Eu fui feito pra causar gritaria
Eu fui feito para o movimento dessas mãos
Com o silêncio todo sobre mim
Oh, oh
Mãe, por favor fique orgulhosa
Pai, seja piedoso
Embora vocês tenham me dito
'Filho, você nunca irá vencer na vida'
Oh, oh
Do chão aos céus
Aqui eu fui destinado a estar
E enquanto eu faço meus últimos agradescimentos
Existiu alguma dúvida?
E enquanto os holofotes se apagam
E você está acompanhando na platéia
Você vai começar com seu jeito inexperiente
Mas eu fui feito para o teatro
O paraíso está no meu nascimento
Me destinou a ser uma estrela
Raios de luz brilham sobre mim
E todos meus pecados foram perdoados
Eu fui feito para receber aplausos
Eu fui feito pra causar menosprezo
Nada perto de se destinar
afetou minha decisão
Oh, oh
E do chão aos céus
Aqui eu fui destinado a estar
E enquanto eu faço meus agradecimentos finais
Existiu alhuma dúvida?
E enquanto os holofotes se apagam
E você está aconpanhando na platéia
Você recomeçará com seu jeito inexperiente
Mas eu fui feito pra atuar.
