High Hopes - Pink Floyd

High Hopes

Pink Floyd



Lyrics:
Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
In a world of magnets and miracles
Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
The ringing of the division bell had begun
Along the Long Road and on down the Causeway
Do they still meet there by the Cut
There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
Running before time took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay

The grass was greener
The light was brighter
With friends surrounded
The nights of wonder

Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some inner tide
At a higher altitude with flag unfurled
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world

Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Though down this road we've been so many times

The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river
For ever and ever
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
Letra:
Más allá del horizonte del lugar donde vivimos de jóvenes,
en un mundo de imanes y milagros,
nuestros pensamientos se perdían constantemente y sin límites.
El timbre de la campana de la división había comenzado
a lo largo de la avenida y en la calzada.
¿Aún se encuentran ahí por el corte?
Había una banda harapienta que seguía nuestros pasos,
corriendo antes de que el tiempo se llevara nuestros sueños,
abandonando a las miles de pequeñas criaturas que intentaban atarnos al suelo,
a una vida consumida por la lenta decadencia.

El césped era más verde,
la luz era más brillante
con los amigos alrededor.
Las noches maravillosas...

Mirando más allá de las brasas de puentes brillando detrás nuestro,
vislumbrando cuán verde era en el otro lado.
Pasos hacia adelante, pero el sonambulismo vuelve.
Arrastrados por la fuerza de alguna marea interna
hacia una mayor altitud con la bandera desplegada,
Alcanzamos alturas vertiginosas en aquel mundo soñado.

Encumbrado para siempre por el deseo y la ambición,
hay un hambre aún insatisfecho,
nuestros ojos cansados aún bajan al horizonte
aunque estuvimos tantas veces por este camino.

El césped era más verde,
la luz era más brillante,
el sabor era más dulce.
Las noches maravillosas
con amigos alrededor.
La niebla del amanecer brillando,
el agua fluyendo,
el río sin fin
por siempre jamás.

Lazy Sod - Deep Purple

 Lazy Sod Deep Purple Lyrics: The world’s on fire And I can’t get my arse out of bed The world is on fire There’s smoke all around my head   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night……   The oceans are rising And I can’t do a thing about that So it’s hardly surprising I built an ark for me and my sleek black cat   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night…… Oh yes, turn off the gas and don’t forget to switch off the light   But that’s all right coz I’m a lazy sod and I’m hot Don’t mind me coz I’m a lazy sod, you can like it or not I’m guessing not   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night…… Oh yes, turn off the gas and don’t forget to switch off the light   That’s all right coz I’m a lazy sod and I’m hot, so hot Don’t mind me coz I’m a lazy sod, Whether you like it, like it or not And I’m guessing not Soooo what  ------------------------------------------...

Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship - Alestorm

Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship Alestorm Lyrics: In the dead of night We hear the sound of thunder Undead fiends arise To terrorize and plunder Crawling through the sea A dendrophagic horde Our ship's no longer safe The zombies have just climbed aboard! Bloodlust in their eyes Our boat is their prize A feast for the dead Devouring the ship and inside of our heads Far across the sea Zombies wait for me Craving brains and treasure It's their destiny Til my dying day Hear these words I say Zombies ate my pirate ship I will make them pay Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (Those Zombies ate my pirate ship) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (They are a bunch of undead pricks) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (I'll smash their face in with a brick) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (Those Zombies ate my pirate ship) Centuries ago The prophecy was written So the story goes The grimmest and the true frostbitten Druids made a pact That zombie ...

Portable Door - Deep Purple

 Portable Door Deep Purple Lyrics: When it came to me one day in Jerksville Man, I was right on the edge That jacket's too small for a man of your size And those socks are too big for your head   My eyes glaze at whatever you say But I'm listening, do tell me more It goes under the bridge, right over my head And out through my portable door   I was trapped in a dire situation Between reason and someone-in-law The winner takes all and runs off with the ball Nothing could pleasure me more   Times were, I'd have spoken my piece For a minute or two held the floor But I can't get a word in so here I am hurtling Right out through my portable door   The jabbering's hurting my brain cell so bad For once in my life I am bored The public house beckons, I follow the call And slip in through my portable door   The unlikely event came upon me I wasn't prepared for the shock Once round my neck and twice round ...
