Cançó del Dubte
Una veu li preguntava què seràs quan siguis gran?
La meva amiga callava I somreia cap avall
Qui tornés a aquella tarda a prendre foc
I aturar-la just a punt de dubtar per primer cop!
Quan el pare preguntava quina feina trobaràs?
La meva amiga, rabiosa, intentava no plorar
I el cervell jove repassava les opcions
I tenia els ulls cansats de mirar en tots els racons
Però, en mirar-lo, el camí no diu si vas a la glòria o al fracàs
I sortíem a les nits
Va, demà ho farem millor
Mentre el dubte ens observava
I sentíem créixer dins
Gairebé una decisió
Però era el dubte que jugava
Amb tot allò que era bo
Amb tot allò que era bo
Si un bon noi li preguntava què collons volia que fes
La meva amiga dubtava I s'arrambava contra ell
I s'adormia prometent-se que demà
Sabria estar contenta al seu costat
Desgraciats si sabeu el gust que fa els
Petons que fem dubtant!
T'has quedat mirant un prat
Esperant que neixin flors
Mentre el dubte les matava
T'has quedat tota la nit
Observant com dorm un cos
Mentre el dubte reclamava
Tot allò que era bo
Tot allò que era bo
Ha passat a mig matí
M'ha tocat amb unes mans
Plenes d'ungles despintades
No tenia gaire temps
Però passava pel veïnat
I em volia dir que ara
Ho té molt clar
La meva amiga diu que ho té molt clar!
Song of Doubt
A voice asked her what she'll be when she grows up?
My friend stayed quiet and smiled down
If only we could go back to that afternoon to ignite
And stop her just before she doubts for the first time!
When Dad asked what job will you find?
My friend, furious, tried not to cry
And her young mind went over the options
Her eyes were tired from searching every corner
But looking at it, the path doesn’t say if you’re heading for glory or failure
And we’d go out at night
Come on, we’ll do better tomorrow
While doubt watched us
And we felt it growing inside
Almost a decision
But it was doubt that played
With everything that was good
With everything that was good
If a nice guy asked her what the hell she wanted him to do
My friend hesitated and leaned against him
And fell asleep promising herself that tomorrow
She’d know how to be happy by his side
Poor things if you know the thrill of the
Kisses we share while doubting!
You’ve been staring at a meadow
Waiting for flowers to bloom
While doubt was killing them
You stayed up all night
Watching a body sleep
While doubt claimed
Everything that was good
Everything that was good
It’s past mid-morning
She touched me with hands
Full of chipped nails
She didn’t have much time
But she passed through the neighborhood
And wanted to tell me that now
She’s got it all figured out
My friend says she’s got it all figured out!
