A Thousand Lives
James Blunt, Josephine Hunter Dwyer Hill, Michael David Needle, Richard Paul Badger Boardman, Sean Poole
I went and bought you flowers
But I gave them away to somebody else
We made plans for hours
But I lived them out with somebody else
Someone had the life, had the cries, had the first dance
Butterflies in the back of my old car, oh
A thousand lives
Caught in a fire
Dancing on hallowed ground
I count the times
We tried but I-I-I-I
Know some stories don't play out
We took a shot
But the truth is that we couldn't live through the pain
A thousand lives
Now I'm sat here thinking what if one went right
I kept your letters in the basement
Of a house that I bought with somebody else
I went and bought a bracelet
But I wrote a different name when I engraved it
Someone had the life, had the cries, had the first dance
Butterflies in the back of my old car
It was gone in a rush
Now it's all in the dust, oh
A thousand lives
Caught in a fire
Dancing on hallowed ground
I count the times
We tried but I-I-I-I
Know some stories don't play out
We took a shot
But the truth is that we couldn't live through the pain
A thousand lives
Now I'm sat here thinking what if one went right
Every face, every place makes me think about it
Every doubt, but it's too late now
Every street, every scene makes me think about it
Every need, but it's too late
A thousand lives
Caught in a fire
Dancing on hallowed ground
I count the times
We tried but I-I-I-I
Know some stories don't play out
We took a shot
But the truth is that we couldn't live through the pain
A thousand lives
Now I'm sat here thinking what if one went right
I went and bought you flowers
Sono andato e ti ho comprato dei fiori
But I gave them away to somebody else
Ma li ho dati a qualcun altro
We made plans for hours
Abbiamo fatto piani per ore
But I lived them out with somebody else
Ma li ho vissuti con qualcun altro
Someone had the life, had the cries, had the first dance
Qualcuno aveva la vita, aveva i pianti, aveva il primo ballo
Butterflies in the back of my old car, oh
Farfalle nel retro della mia vecchia auto, oh
A thousand lives
Mille vite
Caught in a fire
Intrappolate in un incendio
Dancing on hallowed ground
Ballando su terreno sacro
I count the times
Conto le volte
We tried but I-I-I-I
Abbiamo provato ma io-io-io-io
Know some stories don't play out
So che alcune storie non si svolgono
We took a shot
Abbiamo fatto un tentativo
But the truth is that we couldn't live through the pain
Ma la verità è che non potevamo vivere attraverso il dolore
A thousand lives
Mille vite
Now I'm sat here thinking what if one went right
Ora sono qui seduto a pensare cosa sarebbe successo se una fosse andata bene
I kept your letters in the basement
Ho tenuto le tue lettere nel seminterrato
Of a house that I bought with somebody else
Di una casa che ho comprato con qualcun altro
I went and bought a bracelet
Sono andato e ho comprato un braccialetto
But I wrote a different name when I engraved it
Ma ho scritto un nome diverso quando l'ho inciso
Someone had the life, had the cries, had the first dance
Qualcuno aveva la vita, aveva i pianti, aveva il primo ballo
Butterflies in the back of my old car
Farfalle nel retro della mia vecchia auto
It was gone in a rush
È sparito in fretta
Now it's all in the dust, oh
Ora è tutto nella polvere, oh
A thousand lives
Mille vite
Caught in a fire
Intrappolate in un incendio
Dancing on hallowed ground
Ballando su terreno sacro
I count the times
Conto le volte
We tried but I-I-I-I
Abbiamo provato ma io-io-io-io
Know some stories don't play out
So che alcune storie non si svolgono
We took a shot
Abbiamo fatto un tentativo
But the truth is that we couldn't live through the pain
Ma la verità è che non potevamo vivere attraverso il dolore
A thousand lives
Mille vite
Now I'm sat here thinking what if one went right
Ora sono qui seduto a pensare cosa sarebbe successo se una fosse andata bene
Every face, every place makes me think about it
Ogni volto, ogni luogo mi fa pensare a questo
Every doubt, but it's too late now
Ogni dubbio, ma ora è troppo tardi
Every street, every scene makes me think about it
Ogni strada, ogni scena mi fa pensare a questo
Every need, but it's too late
Ogni bisogno, ma ora è troppo tardi
A thousand lives
Mille vite
Caught in a fire
Intrappolate in un incendio
Dancing on hallowed ground
Ballando su terreno sacro
I count the times
Conto le volte

I went and bought you flowers
Fui e comprei flores para você
But I gave them away to somebody else
Mas eu as dei para outra pessoa
We made plans for hours
Fizemos planos por horas
But I lived them out with somebody else
Mas eu os vivi com outra pessoa
Someone had the life, had the cries, had the first dance
Alguém teve a vida, teve os choros, teve a primeira dança
Butterflies in the back of my old car, oh
Borboletas no fundo do meu carro velho, oh
A thousand lives
Mil vidas
Caught in a fire
Presas em um incêndio
Dancing on hallowed ground
Dançando em solo sagrado
I count the times
Eu conto as vezes
We tried but I-I-I-I
Nós tentamos, mas eu-eu-eu-eu
Know some stories don't play out
Sei que algumas histórias não se desenrolam
We took a shot
Nós arriscamos
But the truth is that we couldn't live through the pain
Mas a verdade é que não conseguimos viver através da dor
A thousand lives
Mil vidas
Now I'm sat here thinking what if one went right
Agora estou sentado aqui pensando e se uma tivesse dado certo
I kept your letters in the basement
Guardei suas cartas no porão
Of a house that I bought with somebody else
De uma casa que comprei com outra pessoa
I went and bought a bracelet
Fui e comprei uma pulseira
But I wrote a different name when I engraved it
Mas escrevi um nome diferente quando a gravei
Someone had the life, had the cries, had the first dance
Alguém teve a vida, teve os choros, teve a primeira dança
Butterflies in the back of my old car
Borboletas no fundo do meu carro velho
It was gone in a rush
Foi embora em um instante
Now it's all in the dust, oh
Agora está tudo no pó, oh
A thousand lives
Mil vidas
Caught in a fire
Presas em um incêndio
Dancing on hallowed ground
Dançando em solo sagrado
I count the times
Eu conto as vezes
We tried but I-I-I-I
Nós tentamos, mas eu-eu-eu-eu
Know some stories don't play out
Sei que algumas histórias não se desenrolam

A thousand lives
Mil vidas
Now I'm sat here thinking what if one went right
Agora estou sentado aqui pensando e se uma tivesse dado certo
Every face, every place makes me think about it
Cada rosto, cada lugar me faz pensar sobre isso
Every doubt, but it's too late now
Cada dúvida, mas agora é tarde demais
Every street, every scene makes me think about it
Cada rua, cada cena me faz pensar sobre isso
Every need, but it's too late
Cada necessidade, mas agora é tarde demais
A thousand lives
Mil vidas
Caught in a fire
Presas em um incêndio

But I lived them out with somebody else
Pero los viví con alguien más
Someone had the life, had the cries, had the first dance
Alguien tuvo la vida, tuvo los llantos, tuvo el primer baile
Butterflies in the back of my old car, oh
Mariposas en la parte trasera de mi viejo coche, oh
A thousand lives
Mil vidas
Caught in a fire
Atrapadas en un incendio
Dancing on hallowed ground
Bailando en tierra sagrada
I count the times
Cuento las veces
We tried but I-I-I-I
Intentamos pero yo-yo-yo-yo
Know some stories don't play out
Sé que algunas historias no se desarrollan
We took a shot
Disparamos
But the truth is that we couldn't live through the pain
Pero la verdad es que no pudimos vivir a través del dolor
A thousand lives
Mil vidas
Now I'm sat here thinking what if one went right
Ahora estoy sentado aquí pensando qué pasaría si una saliera bien
I kept your letters in the basement
Guardé tus cartas en el sótano
Of a house that I bought with somebody else
De una casa que compré con alguien más
I went and bought a bracelet
Fui y compré una pulsera
But I wrote a different name when I engraved it
Pero escribí un nombre diferente cuando la grabé
Someone had the life, had the cries, had the first dance
Alguien tuvo la vida, tuvo los llantos, tuvo el primer baile
Butterflies in the back of my old car
Mariposas en la parte trasera de mi viejo coche
It was gone in a rush
Se fue en un apuro
Now it's all in the dust, oh
Ahora todo está en el polvo, oh
A thousand lives
Mil vidas
Caught in a fire
Atrapadas en un incendio
Dancing on hallowed ground
Bailando en tierra sagrada
I count the times

A thousand lives
Mil vidas
Now I'm sat here thinking what if one went right
Ahora estoy sentado aquí pensando qué pasaría si una saliera bien
Every face, every place makes me think about it
Cada cara, cada lugar me hace pensar en ello
Every doubt, but it's too late now
Cada duda, pero ya es demasiado tarde
Every street, every scene makes me think about it
Cada calle, cada escena me hace pensar en ello
Every need, but it's too late
Cada necesidad, pero ya es demasiado tarde
A thousand lives

Butterflies in the back of my old car, oh
Des papillons dans le coffre de ma vieille voiture, oh
A thousand lives

Caught in a fire
Prises dans un feu
Dancing on hallowed ground
Dansant sur un sol sacré
I count the times
Je compte les fois
We tried but I-I-I-I
Nous avons essayé mais je-je-je-je
Know some stories don't play out
Sais que certaines histoires ne se déroulent pas
We took a shot
Nous avons tenté notre chance
But the truth is that we couldn't live through the pain
Mais la vérité est que nous ne pouvions pas vivre à travers la douleur
A thousand lives
Mille vies

Schmetterlinge im hinteren Teil meines alten Autos, oh
A thousand lives
Tausend Leben
Caught in a fire
Gefangen in einem Feuer
Dancing on hallowed ground
Tanzend auf heiligem Boden
I count the times
Ich zähle die Male
We tried but I-I-I-I
Wir haben es versucht, aber ich-ich-ich-ich
Know some stories don't play out
Weiß, dass manche Geschichten sich nicht abspielen
We took a shot
