Lyrics & Translation
English
Home isn’t open
It’s like, when you get there
The tracks by the creek bed
The minnow’s the body
Crawdads with their heads down low
Back in the tall grass
Stinging my cattails oh!
Lokking for brother
It feels like winter
But it’s the heart of the summer
We can’t go swimming
As long as we slumber
Cuz we’re a long way from home
A long way from home
How did we get here?
One step takes me home
Two steps back on my own
Three skips to each stone
Four steps back and I’m gone
And I wanted you to know
I was thinking about you
And you look like a rose
Especially, when I’m a long way from home
A long way from home
How did we get here?
Back to the body
Words jump like salmon
One step takes me home
Two steps back on my own
Three skips to each stone
Four steps back and I’m gone
And I wanted you to know
I was thinking about you
And you look like a rose
Especially, when I’m a long way from home
In that backwater
Running through the woods
In that red water
In the mirror
Thinking of you
Spend all day just thinking of you
In the mirror thinking of you
Spend my days just thinking of you
And I wanted you to know
I was thinking about you
And you look like a rose
Especially, when I’m a long way from home
Long way from home
(Long way from home)
Long way from home
(Long way from home)
Long way from home…

Back In The Tall Grass (traducción LyricVerse Team)
El hogar no está abierto
Es como, cuando llegas allí
Las huellas junto al lecho del arroyo
El pececillo es el cuerpo
Cangrejos de río con la cabeza gacha
De vuelta en la hierba alta
¡Picando mis espadañas, oh!
Buscando a mi hermano
Se siente como invierno
Pero es el corazón del verano
No podemos ir a nadar
Mientras dormitemos
Porque estamos muy lejos de casa
Muy lejos de casa
¿Cómo llegamos aquí?
Un paso me lleva a casa
Dos pasos atrás por mi cuenta
Tres saltos a cada piedra
Cuatro pasos atrás y me he ido
Y quería que supieras
Estaba pensando en ti
Y te ves como una rosa
Especialmente, cuando estoy muy lejos de casa
Muy lejos de casa
¿Cómo llegamos aquí?
De vuelta al cuerpo
Las palabras saltan como salmones
Un paso me lleva a casa
Dos pasos atrás por mi cuenta
Tres saltos a cada piedra
Cuatro pasos atrás y me he ido
Y quería que supieras
Estaba pensando en ti
Y te ves como una rosa
Especialmente, cuando estoy muy lejos de casa
En esa ciénaga
Corriendo por el bosque
En esa agua roja
En el espejo
Pensando en ti
Paso todo el día solo pensando en ti
En el espejo pensando en ti
Paso mis días solo pensando en ti
Y quería que supieras
Estaba pensando en ti
Y te ves como una rosa
Especialmente, cuando estoy muy lejos de casa
Lejos de casa
(Lejos de casa)
Lejos de casa
(Lejos de casa)
Lejos de casa…
