Favourite Daughter by Lorde
Lyrics & Translation
English
Ah-ah
I was a singer
You were my fan
When no one gave a damn
It was you in the dark
Scared of your anger
In love with your whim
Some notes I don't hit
But I don't give up
Now every day the plane takes off
And every night the room fills up with
People who are convinced I'm not
Just some kid fakin' it for your love
'Cause I'm an actress, all of the medals I won for ya
Breaking my back just to be your favourite daughter
Everywhere I run, I'm always runnin' to ya
Breaking my back just hoping you'll say I'm a star
You had a brother, I look like him
You told us as kids
"He died of a broken heart"
And for every door you open
There's a room I can't go in
I break in, I still can't find you
Now that every day the plane takes off
And every night the room fills up
I tell myself that soon we'll talk
Then I sing every word just to ya
'Cause I'm an actress, all of the medals I won for ya
Panic attack just to be your favourite daughter
Everywhere I run, I'm always runnin' to ya
Breaking my back to carry the weight of your heart
But I keep dancing till I get sick
Why'd you have to dream so big?
Why did no one listen when you hit the notes from your heart?
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
I'm a good actress, look at the medals I won for ya
So you could imagine being a favourite daughter
Everywhere I run, I'm always runnin' to ya
Breaking my back just to be as brave as my mother

Favourite Daughter (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Ah-ah
Yo era una cantante
Tú eras mi fan
Cuando a nadie le importaba
Eras tú en la oscuridad
Asustada de tu ira
Enamorada de tu capricho
Algunas notas no las doy
Pero no me rindo
Ahora cada día el avión despega
Y cada noche la habitación se llena con
Gente que está convencida de que no soy
Solo una niña fingiendo por tu amor
Porque soy una actriz, todas las medallas que gané por ti
Dejándome la espalda solo para ser tu hija favorita
Dondequiera que corro, siempre estoy corriendo hacia ti
Dejándome la espalda solo esperando que digas que soy una estrella
Tuviste un hermano, me parezco a él
Nos dijiste de niños
"Murió de un corazón roto"
Y por cada puerta que abres
Hay una habitación a la que no puedo entrar
Entro a la fuerza, aún no te encuentro
Ahora que cada día el avión despega
Y cada noche la habitación se llena
Me digo que pronto hablaremos
Luego canto cada palabra solo para ti
Porque soy una actriz, todas las medallas que gané por ti
Ataque de pánico solo para ser tu hija favorita
Dondequiera que corro, siempre estoy corriendo hacia ti
Dejándome la espalda para cargar el peso de tu corazón
Pero sigo bailando hasta que me enfermo
¿Por qué tenías que soñar tan grande?
¿Por qué nadie escuchó cuando tocaste las notas de tu corazón?
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
Soy una buena actriz, mira las medallas que gané por ti
Para que pudieras imaginar ser una hija favorita
Dondequiera que corro, siempre estoy corriendo hacia ti
Dejándome la espalda solo para ser tan valiente como mi madre
