TIMOTHY A. JAMES, DARIUS C. RUCKER, RIVERS RUTHERFORD
I never was the biggest or the fastest guy
I never hit a homerun when the game was tied
I knew from an early age I wasn't going to be
A doctor or the CEO of anything
So I sang, She Believes In Me
And I played, Fire On The Mountain
'Til I made my fingers bleed
I tried to stand out from the crowd
But most times I just struck out at the plate
So I sang
I wasn't cool enough to be a ladies man
It took me forever just to hold her hand
First time we kissed, she whispered, I love you
But I wasn't brave enough to say, I loved her too
So I sang, You Are So Beautiful To Me
And I played every note to Faithfully
I loved her with everything
But I couldn't think of anything to say
So I sang
No one believed in me as much as Mom
See, she worked overtime to buy my first guitar
When the angels called her home
My sister asked if I would speak
But there were no words to say how much she meant to me
So I sang, It Is Well With My Soul
And I played, I'm So Tired Of Being Alone
'Cause those were Mama's favorite songs
And what I felt would take too long to say
So I sang
Yes, I sang
So I sang
I never was the biggest or the fastest guy
Ich war nie der Größte oder der Schnellste
I never hit a homerun when the game was tied
Ich habe nie einen Homerun geschlagen, als das Spiel unentschieden stand
I knew from an early age I wasn't going to be
Ich wusste schon in jungen Jahren, dass ich nicht werden würde
A doctor or the CEO of anything
Ein Arzt oder der CEO von irgendetwas
So I sang, She Believes In Me
Also sang ich, sie glaubt an mich
And I played, Fire On The Mountain
Und ich spielte, Feuer auf dem Berg
'Til I made my fingers bleed
Bis meine Finger bluteten
I tried to stand out from the crowd
Ich versuchte, mich von der Masse abzuheben
But most times I just struck out at the plate
Aber meistens schlug ich nur am Schlagmal fehl
So I sang
Also sang ich
I wasn't cool enough to be a ladies man
Ich war nicht cool genug, um ein Frauenheld zu sein
It took me forever just to hold her hand
Es dauerte ewig, bis ich ihre Hand halten konnte
First time we kissed, she whispered, I love you
Das erste Mal, als wir uns küssten, flüsterte sie, Ich liebe dich
But I wasn't brave enough to say, I loved her too
Aber ich war nicht mutig genug zu sagen, ich liebte sie auch
So I sang, You Are So Beautiful To Me
Also sang ich, du bist so schön für mich
And I played every note to Faithfully
Und ich spielte jede Note zu Treu
I loved her with everything
Ich liebte sie mit allem
But I couldn't think of anything to say
Aber ich konnte mir nichts zu sagen einfallen lassen
So I sang
Also sang ich
No one believed in me as much as Mom
Niemand glaubte so sehr an mich wie Mama
See, she worked overtime to buy my first guitar
Siehst du, sie arbeitete Überstunden, um meine erste Gitarre zu kaufen
When the angels called her home
Als die Engel sie nach Hause riefen
My sister asked if I would speak
Meine Schwester fragte, ob ich sprechen würde
But there were no words to say how much she meant to me
Aber es gab keine Worte, um zu sagen, wie viel sie mir bedeutete
So I sang, It Is Well With My Soul
Also sang ich, es ist gut mit meiner Seele
And I played, I'm So Tired Of Being Alone
Und ich spielte, ich bin es so leid, allein zu sein
'Cause those were Mama's favorite songs
Denn das waren Mamas Lieblingslieder
And what I felt would take too long to say
Und was ich fühlte, würde zu lange dauern, um es zu sagen
So I sang
Also sang ich
Yes, I sang
Ja, ich sang
So I sang
Also sang ich
I never was the biggest or the fastest guy
Eu nunca fui o maior ou o mais rápido
I never hit a homerun when the game was tied
Eu nunca acertei um homerun quando o jogo estava empatado
I knew from an early age I wasn't going to be
Eu sabia desde cedo que não iria ser
A doctor or the CEO of anything
Um médico ou o CEO de qualquer coisa
So I sang, She Believes In Me
Então eu cantei, Ela Acredita Em Mim
And I played, Fire On The Mountain
E eu toquei, Fogo Na Montanha
'Til I made my fingers bleed
Até meus dedos sangrarem
I tried to stand out from the crowd
Eu tentei me destacar da multidão
But most times I just struck out at the plate
Mas na maioria das vezes eu apenas falhei no prato
So I sang
Então eu cantei
I wasn't cool enough to be a ladies man
Eu não era legal o suficiente para ser um conquistador
It took me forever just to hold her hand
Demorou uma eternidade apenas para segurar a mão dela
First time we kissed, she whispered, I love you
A primeira vez que nos beijamos, ela sussurrou, eu te amo
But I wasn't brave enough to say, I loved her too
Mas eu não era corajoso o suficiente para dizer, eu também a amava
So I sang, You Are So Beautiful To Me
Então eu cantei, Você É Tão Linda Para Mim
And I played every note to Faithfully
E eu toquei todas as notas de Faithfully
I loved her with everything
Eu a amava com tudo
But I couldn't think of anything to say
Mas eu não conseguia pensar em nada para dizer
So I sang
Então eu cantei
No one believed in me as much as Mom
Ninguém acreditava em mim tanto quanto a mamãe
See, she worked overtime to buy my first guitar
Veja, ela trabalhava horas extras para comprar minha primeira guitarra
When the angels called her home
Quando os anjos a chamaram para casa
My sister asked if I would speak
Minha irmã perguntou se eu falaria
But there were no words to say how much she meant to me
Mas não havia palavras para dizer o quanto ela significava para mim
So I sang, It Is Well With My Soul
Então eu cantei, Está Bem Com Minha Alma
And I played, I'm So Tired Of Being Alone
E eu toquei, Estou Tão Cansado De Estar Sozinho
'Cause those were Mama's favorite songs
Porque essas eram as músicas favoritas da mamãe
And what I felt would take too long to say
E o que eu sentia levaria muito tempo para dizer
So I sang
Então eu cantei
Yes, I sang
Sim, eu cantei
So I sang
Então eu cantei
I never was the biggest or the fastest guy
Nunca fui el más grande o el más rápido
I never hit a homerun when the game was tied
Nunca pegué un jonrón cuando el juego estaba empatado
I knew from an early age I wasn't going to be
Sabía desde una edad temprana que no iba a ser
A doctor or the CEO of anything
Un médico o el CEO de nada
So I sang, She Believes In Me
Así que canté, Ella Cree En Mí
And I played, Fire On The Mountain
Y toqué, Fuego En La Montaña
'Til I made my fingers bleed
Hasta que me sangraron los dedos
I tried to stand out from the crowd
Intenté destacar entre la multitud
But most times I just struck out at the plate
Pero la mayoría de las veces simplemente fallé en el plato
So I sang
Así que canté
I wasn't cool enough to be a ladies man
No era lo suficientemente guay para ser un conquistador
It took me forever just to hold her hand
Me llevó una eternidad solo para tomar su mano
First time we kissed, she whispered, I love you
La primera vez que nos besamos, ella susurró, te amo
But I wasn't brave enough to say, I loved her too
Pero no era lo suficientemente valiente para decir, yo también la amaba
So I sang, You Are So Beautiful To Me
Así que canté, Eres Tan Hermosa Para Mí
And I played every note to Faithfully
Y toqué cada nota de Faithfully
I loved her with everything
La amé con todo
But I couldn't think of anything to say
Pero no podía pensar en nada que decir
So I sang
Así que canté
No one believed in me as much as Mom
Nadie creía en mí tanto como mamá
See, she worked overtime to buy my first guitar
Verás, ella trabajó horas extras para comprar mi primera guitarra
When the angels called her home
Cuando los ángeles la llamaron a casa
My sister asked if I would speak
Mi hermana preguntó si yo hablaría
But there were no words to say how much she meant to me
Pero no había palabras para decir cuánto significaba para mí
So I sang, It Is Well With My Soul
Así que canté, Todo Está Bien Con Mi Alma
And I played, I'm So Tired Of Being Alone
Y toqué, Estoy Tan Cansado De Estar Solo
'Cause those were Mama's favorite songs
Porque esas eran las canciones favoritas de mamá
And what I felt would take too long to say
Y lo que sentía llevaría demasiado tiempo decir
So I sang
Así que canté

I never was the biggest or the fastest guy

Je savais dès mon plus jeune âge que je n'allais pas être
A doctor or the CEO of anything
Un docteur ou le PDG de quoi que ce soit
So I sang, She Believes In Me
Alors j'ai chanté, Elle croit en moi
And I played, Fire On The Mountain
Et j'ai joué, Feu sur la montagne
'Til I made my fingers bleed
Jusqu'à ce que mes doigts saignent
I tried to stand out from the crowd
J'ai essayé de me démarquer de la foule
But most times I just struck out at the plate
Mais la plupart du temps, je frappais à côté de la plaque
So I sang
Alors j'ai chanté
I wasn't cool enough to be a ladies man
Je n'étais pas assez cool pour être un tombeur
It took me forever just to hold her hand
Il m'a fallu une éternité pour simplement tenir sa main
First time we kissed, she whispered, I love you
La première fois que nous nous sommes embrassés, elle a murmuré, je t'aime
But I wasn't brave enough to say, I loved her too
Mais je n'étais pas assez courageux pour dire, je l'aime aussi
So I sang, You Are So Beautiful To Me
Alors j'ai chanté, Tu es si belle pour moi
And I played every note to Faithfully
Et j'ai joué chaque note fidèlement
I loved her with everything
Je l'aimais de tout mon être
But I couldn't think of anything to say
Mais je ne pouvais penser à rien à dire
So I sang
Alors j'ai chanté
No one believed in me as much as Mom
Personne ne croyait en moi autant que maman
See, she worked overtime to buy my first guitar
Voyez, elle a travaillé des heures supplémentaires pour acheter ma première guitare
When the angels called her home
Quand les anges l'ont appelée à la maison
My sister asked if I would speak
Ma sœur m'a demandé si je voulais parler
But there were no words to say how much she meant to me
Mais il n'y avait pas de mots pour dire combien elle comptait pour moi
So I sang, It Is Well With My Soul
Alors j'ai chanté, Tout va bien avec mon âme
And I played, I'm So Tired Of Being Alone
Et j'ai joué, Je suis tellement fatigué d'être seul
'Cause those were Mama's favorite songs
Parce que c'étaient les chansons préférées de maman
And what I felt would take too long to say
Et ce que je ressentais prendrait trop de temps à dire
So I sang
Alors j'ai chanté
Yes, I sang
Oui, j'ai chanté
So I sang
Alors j'ai chanté
I never was the biggest or the fastest guy
Non sono mai stato il più grande o il più veloce
I never hit a homerun when the game was tied
Non ho mai fatto un fuoricampo quando la partita era in parità
I knew from an early age I wasn't going to be
Sapevo fin da piccolo che non sarei diventato
A doctor or the CEO of anything
Un dottore o l'amministratore delegato di qualsiasi cosa
So I sang, She Believes In Me
Così ho cantato, Lei Crede In Me
And I played, Fire On The Mountain
E ho suonato, Fuoco Sulla Montagna
'Til I made my fingers bleed
Fino a farmi sanguinare le dita
I tried to stand out from the crowd
Ho cercato di distinguermi dalla folla
But most times I just struck out at the plate
Ma la maggior parte delle volte ho solo fallito al piatto
So I sang
Così ho cantato
I wasn't cool enough to be a ladies man
Non ero abbastanza figo per essere un donnaiolo
It took me forever just to hold her hand
Mi ci è voluto un'eternità solo per tenerle la mano
First time we kissed, she whispered, I love you
La prima volta che ci siamo baciati, lei ha sussurrato, ti amo
But I wasn't brave enough to say, I loved her too
Ma non ero abbastanza coraggioso per dire, la amavo anch'io
So I sang, You Are So Beautiful To Me
Così ho cantato, Sei Così Bella Per Me
And I played every note to Faithfully
E ho suonato ogni nota fedelmente
I loved her with everything
L'ho amata con tutto me stesso
But I couldn't think of anything to say
Ma non riuscivo a pensare a nulla da dire
So I sang
Così ho cantato
No one believed in me as much as Mom
Nessuno credeva in me quanto mia madre

Vedi, ha lavorato straordinari per comprarmi la mia prima chitarra
When the angels called her home
Quando gli angeli l'hanno chiamata a casa
My sister asked if I would speak
Mia sorella mi ha chiesto se avrei parlato
But there were no words to say how much she meant to me
Ma non c'erano parole per dire quanto lei significasse per me
So I sang, It Is Well With My Soul
Così ho cantato, Tutto È Bene Con La Mia Anima
And I played, I'm So Tired Of Being Alone
E ho suonato, Sono Così Stanco Di Essere Solo
'Cause those were Mama's favorite songs
Perché quelle erano le canzoni preferite di mamma
And what I felt would take too long to say
E quello che sentivo avrebbe richiesto troppo tempo per dirlo
So I sang
Così ho cantato
Yes, I sang
Sì, ho cantato

Così ho cantato

A doctor or the CEO of anything
Dokter atau CEO dari apapun
So I sang, She Believes In Me
Jadi saya menyanyi, Dia Percaya Padaku
And I played, Fire On The Mountain
Dan saya bermain, Api di Gunung
'Til I made my fingers bleed
Sampai jari-jari saya berdarah
I tried to stand out from the crowd
Saya mencoba untuk menonjol dari kerumunan
But most times I just struck out at the plate
Tapi kebanyakan waktu saya hanya gagal di piring
So I sang
Jadi saya menyanyi
I wasn't cool enough to be a ladies man
Saya tidak cukup keren untuk menjadi pria idaman wanita
It took me forever just to hold her hand
Saya butuh waktu selamanya hanya untuk memegang tangannya
First time we kissed, she whispered, I love you
Pertama kali kami berciuman, dia berbisik, aku cinta kamu
But I wasn't brave enough to say, I loved her too
Tapi saya tidak cukup berani untuk mengatakan, saya juga mencintainya
So I sang, You Are So Beautiful To Me
Jadi saya menyanyi, Kamu Sangat Cantik Bagiku
And I played every note to Faithfully
Dan saya memainkan setiap nada dengan setia
I loved her with everything
Saya mencintainya dengan segalanya
But I couldn't think of anything to say
Tapi saya tidak bisa memikirkan apa pun untuk dikatakan
So I sang
Jadi saya menyanyi
No one believed in me as much as Mom
Tidak ada yang percaya pada saya sebanyak Ibu
See, she worked overtime to buy my first guitar
Lihat, dia bekerja lembur untuk membeli gitar pertama saya
When the angels called her home
Ketika para malaikat memanggilnya pulang
My sister asked if I would speak
Saudara perempuan saya bertanya apakah saya akan berbicara
But there were no words to say how much she meant to me
Tapi tidak ada kata-kata untuk mengatakan betapa berartinya dia bagi saya
So I sang, It Is Well With My Soul
Jadi saya menyanyi, Semuanya Baik Dengan Jiwaku
And I played, I'm So Tired Of Being Alone
Dan saya bermain, Saya Sangat Lelah Sendirian
'Cause those were Mama's favorite songs
Karena itu adalah lagu favorit Mama
And what I felt would take too long to say
Dan apa yang saya rasakan akan memakan waktu terlalu lama untuk dikatakan
So I sang
Jadi saya menyanyi
Yes, I sang
Ya, saya menyanyi

Jadi saya menyanyi
