That Was Me

Aquele era eu, no acampamento de escoteiros, na peça da escola That was me, in the scout camp, in the school play Pá e balde junto ao mar, aquele era eu Spade and bucket by the sea, that was me

Aquele era eu, jogando conkers no ponto de ônibus That was me, playing conkers at the bus stop Num cobertor nos sinos azuis, aquele era eu On a blanket in the blue bells, that was me

O mesmo eu que está de pé aqui agora The same me that stands here now Quando eu penso que todas essas coisas When I think that all this stuff Podem fazer uma vida que é bem difícil de se suportar, aquele era eu Can make a life that's pretty hard to take it in, that was me

Bem, aquele era eu, íris reais no rio Well that was me, royal iris, on the river Mersy no ritmo da banda, aquele era eu Mersy beat n' with the band, that was me

É, aquele era eu, suando teias de aranha sob contrato Yeah, that was me, sweating cobwebs under contract No porão, na tv, aquele era eu In the cellar, on tv, that was me

O mesmo eu que está de pé aqui agora The same me that stands here now Se o destino concordou com tudo isso If fate agreed that all of this Para fazer uma vida, quem sou para discordar, aquele era eu To make a lifetime, who am I to disagree, that was me

Aquele era eu, accapella no altar That was me, accapella at the alter No meio do quadro, aquele era eu In the middle of the picture, that was me

Aquele era eu na festa, suando teias de aranha That was me at the party, sweatin' cobwebs No porão, na tv, é, aquele era eu In a cellar on tv ya that was me

O mesmo eu que está de pé aqui agora The same me that stands here now Quando eu penso que todas essas coisas When I think that all this stuff Podem fazer uma vida que é bem difícil de se suportar, aquele era eu Can make a life that's pretty hard to take it in, that was me Aquele era eu, é, aquele era eu! That was me, ya, that was me!
