Testi di Had You Been Around - Billy Eckstine

Had You Been Around (originale)

I might have known a lot of things
Been smiled upon by kings and queens
Had you been around
Perhaps had you been by my side
My dreams might not have been denied
Had you been around
I’ve wasted many years, tasted many tears
And I want to know
Lost on my own before I knew of you
I might have heard the sigh
Of someone passing by
Had you been around
And though it seems absurd
I really never heard
A sound
Until that day
You came my way
With bless I never found
And it might have been
Had you been around
Had you been around
Perhaps had you been by my side
My dreams might not have been denied
Had you been around
I’ve wasted many years, tasted many tears
And I want to know
I’m lost on my own before I knew of you
I might have heard the sigh
Of someone passing by
Had you been around
And though it seems absurd
I really never heard
A sound
Until that day
You came my way
With bless I never found
And it might have been
Had you been around
One more time
And it might have been
Had you been around
Do it
And all might have been
Had you been around
Had you been around

(traduzione)

Avrei potuto sapere molte cose
È stato accolto con un sorriso da re e regine
Eri stato in giro
Forse eri stato al mio fianco
I miei sogni potrebbero non essere stati negati
Eri stato in giro
Ho sprecato molti anni, ho assaggiato molte lacrime
E voglio sapere
Perso da solo prima di conoscerti
Potrei aver sentito il sospiro
Di qualcuno che passa
Eri stato in giro
E anche se sembra assurdo
Non ho davvero mai sentito
Un suono
Fino a quel giorno
Sei venuta a modo mio
Con bless non ho mai trovato
E potrebbe essere stato
Eri stato in giro
Eri stato in giro
Forse eri stato al mio fianco
I miei sogni potrebbero non essere stati negati
Eri stato in giro
Ho sprecato molti anni, ho assaggiato molte lacrime
E voglio sapere
Mi sono perso da solo prima di conoscerti
Potrei aver sentito il sospiro
Di qualcuno che passa
Eri stato in giro
E anche se sembra assurdo
Non ho davvero mai sentito
Un suono
Fino a quel giorno
Sei venuta a modo mio
Con bless non ho mai trovato
E potrebbe essere stato
Eri stato in giro
Un'altra volta
E potrebbe essere stato
Eri stato in giro
Fallo
E tutto avrebbe potuto essere
Eri stato in giro
Eri stato in giro
