As It Was by Hozier
Lyrics & Translation
English
There is a roadway
Muddy and foxgloved
Whenever I'd had life enough
My heart is screaming of
And in a few days
I will be there, love
Whatever here that's left of me
Is yours just as it was
Just as it was, baby
Before the otherness came
And I knew its name
The drug, the dark,
The light, the flame
The highs hit the heights of my baby
And its hold had the fight of my baby
And the lights were as bright as my baby
But your love was unmoved
Tell me if somehow
Some of it remains
How long you would wait for me
How long I've been away
The shape that I'm in now
Your shape in the doorway
Make your good love known to me
Or just tell me about your day
Just as it was, baby
Before the otherness came
And I knew its name
The drug, the dark,
The light, the shame
The highs hit the heights of my baby
And its hold had the fight of my baby
And the lights were as bright as my baby
But your love was unmoved
And the sights were as stark as my baby
And the cold cut as sharp as my baby
And the nights were as dark as my baby
Half as beautiful too

As It Was* (original Hozier)
There is a roadway
Muddy and foxgloved
Whenever I'd had life enough
My heart is screaming of
And in a few days
I will be there, love
Whatever here that's left of me
Is yours just as it was
Just as it was, baby
Before the otherness came
And I knew its name
The drug, the dark,
The light, the flame
The highs hit the heights of my baby
And its hold had the fight of my baby
And the lights were as bright as my baby
But your love was unmoved
Tell me if somehow
Some of it remains
How long you would wait for me
How long I've been away
The shape that I'm in now
Your shape in the doorway
Make your good love known to me
Or just tell me about your day
Just as it was, baby
Before the otherness came
And I knew its name
The drug, the dark,

The highs hit the heights of my baby
And its hold had the fight of my baby
And the lights were as bright as my baby
But your love was unmoved
And the sights were as stark as my baby
And the cold cut as sharp as my baby
And the nights were as dark as my baby
Half as beautiful too
As It Was (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Hay un camino
Lodoso y con dedaleras
Cuando ya había tenido suficiente vida
Mi corazón está gritando por
Y en unos días
Estaré allí, amor
Lo que sea que quede de mí aquí
Es tuyo tal como era
Tal como era, nena
Antes de que llegara la otredad
Y supe su nombre
La droga, la oscuridad,
La luz, la llama
Los subidones alcanzaron las alturas de mi amor
Y su agarre tuvo la lucha de mi amor
Y las luces eran tan brillantes como mi amor
Pero tu amor permaneció inmutable
Dime si de alguna manera
Algo de eso permanece
Cuánto tiempo me esperarías
Cuánto tiempo he estado lejos
La forma en que estoy ahora
Tu forma en el umbral
Hazme saber tu buen amor
O solo cuéntame sobre tu día
Tal como era, nena
Antes de que llegara la otredad
Y supe su nombre
La droga, la oscuridad,
La luz, la vergüenza
Los subidones alcanzaron las alturas de mi amor
Y su agarre tuvo la lucha de mi amor
Y las luces eran tan brillantes como mi amor
Pero tu amor permaneció inmutable
Y las vistas eran tan crudas como mi amor
Y el frío cortaba tan afilado como mi amor
Y las noches eran tan oscuras como mi amor
La mitad de hermoso también
