Traduzione del testo della canzone Yes I Was - Hothouse Flowers

Yes I Was (originale)

Was I there when you were lying staring cold against my face
Did I run to hear your crying hoping you would come again
Was I there when you were lonely
Was I there, or did I care?
Was I missing when you needed brothers arms
Or was I there?
Yes I was
And if night fall held your head
A tangled mess of shocking pain
Did I run there to your guidance
Hoping you would come again
You were thinking I could hear
Your heavy breathing had me scared
Did I run or did I think or did I know or was I there?
Yes I was
And if night fall takes your head
A tangled mess of shocking pain
Did I run or did I think or did I know or was I there?
You were thinking I could hear
Your heavy breathing had me scared
Did I run or did I think or did I know or was I there?
Yes I was

(traduzione)

Ero lì quando eri sdraiato a fissarmi freddo in faccia
Sono corso a sentire il tuo pianto sperando che saresti tornato
Ero lì quando eri solo
Ero lì o mi importava?
Mi mancava quando avevi bisogno delle braccia dei fratelli
O c'ero lì?
Sì, lo ero
E se il calar della notte ti tenesse la testa
Un intricato pasticcio di dolore scioccante
Sono corso lì alla tua guida
Sperando che verrai di nuovo
Stavi pensando che potessi sentire
Il tuo respiro pesante mi ha spaventato
Ho corso o ho pensato o sapevo o ero lì?
Sì, lo ero
E se il calar della notte ti prende la testa
Un intricato pasticcio di dolore scioccante
Ho corso o ho pensato o sapevo o ero lì?
Stavi pensando che potessi sentire
Il tuo respiro pesante mi ha spaventato
Ho corso o ho pensato o sapevo o ero lì?
Sì, lo ero
