Stop This Train by John Mayer
Lyrics & Translation
English
No, I'm not color blind
I know the world is black and white
Try to keep an open mind
But I just can't sleep on this tonight
Stop this train
I wanna get off and go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But, honestly, won't someone stop this train?
Don't know how else to say it
Don't want to see my parents go
One generation's length away
From fighting life out on my own
Stop this train
I wanna get off and go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But, honestly, won't someone stop this train?
So scared of getting older
I'm only good at being young
So I play the numbers game to find a way to say that life has just begun
Had a talk with my old man
Said, "Help me understand."
He said, "Turn 68
You'll renegotiate
Don't stop this train
Don't for a minute change the place you're in
Don't think I couldn't ever understand
I tried my hand
John, honestly, we'll never stop this train"
Once in a while when it's good
It'll feel like it should
And they're all still around
And you're still safe and sound
And you don't miss a thing
'Til you cry when you're driving away in the dark
Singing, "Stop this train
I wanna get off and go home again
I can't take this speed it's moving in
I know I can't
'Cause now I see I'll never stop this train"
(Think I got 'em now)

Stop This Train (traducción LyricVerse Team)
No, no soy daltónico
Sé que el mundo es blanco y negro
Intento mantener la mente abierta
Pero no puedo dormir con esto esta noche
Detén este tren
Quiero bajarme y volver a casa
No soporto la velocidad a la que va
Sé que no puedo
Pero, honestamente, ¿nadie detendrá este tren?
No sé cómo más decirlo
No quiero ver a mis padres irse
A la distancia de una generación
De luchar la vida por mi cuenta
Detén este tren
Quiero bajarme y volver a casa
No soporto la velocidad a la que va
Sé que no puedo
Pero, honestamente, ¿nadie detendrá este tren?
Tan asustado de envejecer
Solo soy bueno siendo joven
Así que juego con los números para encontrar una forma de decir que la vida acaba de empezar
Tuve una charla con mi viejo
Dije: "Ayúdame a entender."
Él dijo: "Cumple 68
Y renegociarás
No detengas este tren
No cambies ni por un minuto el lugar en el que estás
No creas que yo nunca pude entender
Hice mi intento
John, honestamente, nunca detendremos este tren"
De vez en cuando, cuando es bueno
Se sentirá como debería
Y todos siguen aquí
Y sigues sano y salvo
Y no extrañas nada
Hasta que lloras mientras te alejas en la oscuridad
Cantando: "Detén este tren
Quiero bajarme y volver a casa
No soporto esta velocidad a la que va
Sé que no puedo
Porque ahora veo que nunca detendré este tren"
(Creo que los tengo ahora)
