Testi di Torch - M Ward

Torch (originale)

Up on the rooftops trying to jump across
Schoolyard blacktop and looking down
Westcote and I and cypress runes
Steps on the gravel the only sound
And when I look down
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah
Bah-bah-bah
She said, «Between you and me and the lamppost, we can be
Anyone we wanna be, now the leap is through»
When I thought that she was gone, she took me by the arm
Said, «Even you can’t take the soul where you want it to»
And I’m living proof
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Bah-bah-bah
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Bah-bah-bah

(traduzione)

Su sui tetti cercando di saltare
Asfalto del cortile della scuola e guardando in basso
Westcote e io e le rune di cipresso
Calpesta sulla ghiaia l'unico suono
E quando guardo in basso
Il cuore batte a ritmo proprio, bah-bah-bah
Il cuore batte a ritmo proprio, bah-bah-bah
Il cuore batte a ritmo proprio, bah-bah-bah
Bah-bah-bah
Disse: «Tra te e me e il lampione, possiamo essere
Chiunque vogliamo essere, ora il salto è compiuto»
Quando ho pensato che se ne fosse andata, mi ha preso per il braccio
Disse: «Nemmeno tu puoi portare l'anima dove vuoi»
E ne sono la prova vivente
Il cuore batte a ritmo proprio, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Il cuore batte a ritmo proprio, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Il cuore batte a ritmo proprio, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Bah-bah-bah
Il cuore batte a ritmo proprio, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Il cuore batte a ritmo proprio, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Il cuore batte a ritmo proprio, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Bah-bah-bah
