Lyrics & Translation
English
I don't know how I'm going to tell you
I can't play with you no more
I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me
My friend, the boy next door
I can't believe what people saying
You're gonna let your hair hang down
I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long
You're in the darker side of town
And when I'm out I see you walking
Why don't your eyes see me
Could it be you've found another game to play
What did mama say to me?
That's the way
Oh, that's the way it ought to be
Yeah, yeah, mama say
That's the way it ought to stay
And yesterday I saw you standing by the river
And weren't those tears that filled your eyes
And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying
Had they got you hypnotized?
And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers
But all that lives is born to die
And so I say to you that nothing really matters
And all you do is stand and cry
I don't know what to say about it
When all you ears have turned away
But now's the time to look and look again at what you see
Is that the way it ought to stay?
That's the way
That's the way it ought to be
Oh, don't you know now, mama said
That's the way it's going to stay, yeah

That's The Way (traducción LyricVerse Team)
No sé cómo voy a decirte
Ya no puedo jugar contigo
No sé cómo voy a hacer lo que mamá me dijo
Mi amigo, el chico de al lado
No puedo creer lo que la gente dice
Vas a dejar tu cabello suelto
Estoy satisfecho de sentarme aquí trabajando todo el día
Estás en el lado más oscuro de la ciudad
Y cuando salgo te veo caminando
¿Por qué tus ojos no me ven?
¿Podría ser que encontraste otro juego para jugar?
¿Qué me dijo mamá?
Así es
Oh, así es como debe ser
Sí, sí, mamá dice
Así es como debe quedarse
Y ayer te vi de pie junto al río
¿Y no eran esas lágrimas las que llenaban tus ojos?
Y todos los peces que yacían muriendo en agua sucia
¿Te habían hipnotizado?
Y ayer te vi besando pequeñas flores
Pero todo lo que vive nace para morir
Y así te digo que nada realmente importa
Y todo lo que haces es quedarte de pie y llorar
No sé qué decir al respecto
Cuando todos tus oídos se han apartado
Pero ahora es el momento de mirar y volver a mirar lo que ves
¿Así es como debe quedarse?
Así es
Así es como debe ser
Oh, ¿no sabes ahora?, mamá dijo
Así es como se va a quedar, sí
