Glen Larson, Stuart Phillips, Bruce G. Belland
He was a very special, warm and gentle person
Who put music in the world and spoken in rhyme
And it hurts me that I never really knew him
'Cause all it would have taken was some time
You know he always seemed to be there when I stumbled
And when mountains got too steep for me to climb
And it tears me up to think I never touched him
'Cause all it would have taken was some time
Ain't that just the way that life goes
Down, down, down, down
Movin' way too fast or much too slow
I'm gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
But not getting into someone I should know
Ain't that just the way that life goes
Down, down, down, down
Movin' way too fast or much too slow
I'm gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
But not getting into someone I should know
Ain't that just, ain't that just
Ain't that just, ain't that just
Ain't that just, ain't that just
But not getting into someone I should know
Now he's in another place and I can't reach him
And I feel as though I'm guilty of a crime
I took all he had to give and gave him nothing
And all it would have taken was some time
Ain't that just the way
Ain't that just the way
Ain't that just the way
Ain't that just the way
Ain't that just the way that life goes
Down, down, down, down
Movin' way too fast or much too slow
I'm gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
But not getting into someone I should know
Ain't that just the way that life goes
Down, down, down, down
Movin' way too fast or much too slow
I'm gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
But not getting into someone I should know
Ain't that just, ain't that just
Ain't that just, ain't that just
Ain't that just, ain't that just
But not getting into someone I should know
He was a very special, warm and gentle person
Er war eine sehr besondere, warme und sanfte Person
Who put music in the world and spoken in rhyme
Der Musik in die Welt brachte und in Reimen sprach
And it hurts me that I never really knew him
Und es schmerzt mich, dass ich ihn nie wirklich kannte
'Cause all it would have taken was some time
Denn alles, was es gebraucht hätte, war etwas Zeit
You know he always seemed to be there when I stumbled
Weißt du, er schien immer da zu sein, wenn ich stolperte
And when mountains got too steep for me to climb
Und wenn Berge für mich zu steil zum Klettern waren
And it tears me up to think I never touched him
Und es zerreißt mich, zu denken, dass ich ihn nie berührt habe
'Cause all it would have taken was some time
Denn alles, was es gebraucht hätte, war etwas Zeit
Ain't that just the way that life goes
Ist das nicht einfach so, wie das Leben läuft
Down, down, down, down
Runter, runter, runter, runter
Movin' way too fast or much too slow
Bewegt sich viel zu schnell oder viel zu langsam
I'm gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Ich stehe auf, werde high, komme runter
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
Bekomme kein, kein, nirgendwo
But not getting into someone I should know
Aber komme nicht an jemanden heran, den ich kennen sollte
Ain't that just the way that life goes
Ist das nicht einfach so, wie das Leben läuft
Down, down, down, down
Runter, runter, runter, runter
Movin' way too fast or much too slow
Bewegt sich viel zu schnell oder viel zu langsam
I'm gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Ich stehe auf, werde high, komme runter
Gettin' no, no, nowhere

Ist das nicht einfach, ist das nicht einfach
Ain't that just, ain't that just
Ist das nicht einfach, ist das nicht einfach
But not getting into someone I should know
Aber komme nicht an jemanden heran, den ich kennen sollte
Now he's in another place and I can't reach him
Jetzt ist er an einem anderen Ort und ich kann ihn nicht erreichen
And I feel as though I'm guilty of a crime
Und ich fühle mich, als hätte ich ein Verbrechen begangen
I took all he had to give and gave him nothing
Ich habe alles genommen, was er zu geben hatte und ihm nichts gegeben
And all it would have taken was some time
Und alles, was es gebraucht hätte, war etwas Zeit
Ain't that just the way
Ist das nicht einfach so

He was a very special, warm and gentle person
Ele era uma pessoa muito especial, calorosa e gentil
Who put music in the world and spoken in rhyme
Que colocou música no mundo e falou em rima
And it hurts me that I never really knew him
E me machuca que eu nunca realmente o conheci
'Cause all it would have taken was some time
Porque tudo que teria sido necessário era algum tempo
You know he always seemed to be there when I stumbled
Você sabe que ele sempre parecia estar lá quando eu tropeçava
And when mountains got too steep for me to climb
E quando as montanhas ficavam muito íngremes para eu escalar
And it tears me up to think I never touched him
E me machuca pensar que nunca o toquei
'Cause all it would have taken was some time
Porque tudo que teria sido necessário era algum tempo
Ain't that just the way that life goes
Não é assim que a vida acontece
Down, down, down, down
Descendo, descendo, descendo, descendo
Movin' way too fast or much too slow
Movendo-se muito rápido ou muito devagar
I'm gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Estou me levantando, ficando alto, ficando pra baixo
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
Não chegando a lugar nenhum
But not getting into someone I should know
Mas não me aproximando de alguém que eu deveria conhecer
Ain't that just the way that life goes
Não é assim que a vida acontece
Down, down, down, down

Agora ele está em outro lugar e eu não posso alcançá-lo

E eu me sinto como se fosse culpado de um crime
I took all he had to give and gave him nothing
Eu peguei tudo o que ele tinha para dar e não dei nada
And all it would have taken was some time
E tudo que teria sido necessário era algum tempo
