Been Down by Blue October
Lyrics & Translation
English
I dreamt you seduced me
Just to walk away
I dreamt you inspired
Then rewired what I say
I dreamt you spread your bottom wings
And pulled me to the bed
But then I woke up feeling nauseous
You danced around my head
[Chorus:]
So tell me
How long, how long have I been down?
How long, how long have I been down?
How long, how long have I been down?
Down
I dreamt you burned my fingers
An automatic sting
I dreamt you called me beautiful
Then asked to hear me sing
I dreamt you sat, invited me
To crawl within your space
But then I woke up feeling nauseous
Girl, you danced around my face
[Chorus:]
So tell me
How long, how long have you been down?
How long, how long have you been down?
How long, how long have you been down?
Down, down
Why can't we work when we both try?
We try, we try, we try
Why can't we work, we both try?
Why can't we work when we both try
Try, try, we we we try
I meant to sympathize I meant to be a friend
I know apologizing wont erase the end
But I learn that moving on, is where I must begin
Because when our colors mixed
We couldn't fix the way they wouldn't blend
[Chorus:]
Tell me
How long, how long have we been down?
How long, how long have we been down?
How long, how long have we been down?
Down, down, yeah
And I wish that only greatness follow you around
I hope to God, you find a way to keep from down
When you do I hope you share it all with me
Please try to understand, yeah to understand me
Just try to understand me, yeah understand me
How long, how long have we been down yeah.
Down, down, down, yeah

Been Down (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Soñé que me seducías
Solo para irte
Soñé que inspirabas
Luego recableabas lo que digo
Soñé que desplegabas tus alas inferiores
Y me llevabas a la cama
Pero entonces desperté sintiéndome nauseabundo
Danzabas en mi cabeza
[Coro:]
Así que dime
¿Cuánto tiempo, cuánto tiempo he estado deprimido?
¿Cuánto tiempo, cuánto tiempo he estado deprimido?
¿Cuánto tiempo, cuánto tiempo he estado deprimido?
Abajo
Soñé que me quemabas los dedos
Un aguijón automático
Soñé que me llamabas hermosa
Luego pediste oírme cantar
Soñé que te sentabas, me invitabas
A arrastrarme dentro de tu espacio
Pero entonces desperté sintiéndome nauseabundo
Chica, danzabas alrededor de mi cara
[Coro:]
Así que dime
¿Cuánto tiempo, cuánto tiempo has estado deprimido?
¿Cuánto tiempo, cuánto tiempo has estado deprimido?
¿Cuánto tiempo, cuánto tiempo has estado deprimido?
Abajo, abajo
¿Por qué no podemos funcionar cuando ambos intentamos?
Intentamos, intentamos, intentamos
¿Por qué no podemos funcionar, ambos intentamos?
¿Por qué no podemos funcionar cuando ambos intentamos?
Intentamos, intentamos, nosotros nosotros nosotros intentamos
Tenía la intención de simpatizar, tenía la intención de ser un amigo
Sé que disculparse no borrará el final
Pero aprendo que seguir adelante es donde debo empezar
Porque cuando nuestros colores se mezclaron
No pudimos arreglar la forma en que no se mezclaban
[Coro:]
Dime
¿Cuánto tiempo, cuánto tiempo hemos estado deprimidos?
¿Cuánto tiempo, cuánto tiempo hemos estado deprimidos?
¿Cuánto tiempo, cuánto tiempo hemos estado deprimidos?
Abajo, abajo, sí
Y desearía que solo la grandeza te siguiera
Espero en Dios que encuentres una manera de no caer
Cuando lo hagas, espero que lo compartas todo conmigo
Por favor, intenta entender, sí, entenderme
Solo intenta entenderme, sí, entenderme
¿Cuánto tiempo, cuánto tiempo hemos estado deprimidos, sí?
Abajo, abajo, abajo, sí
