The Getting By II
Brandon Flowers, Jonathan Rado
When I get up she swears that she don't hear it
Says that I'm as quiet as a mouse
I comb my hair and throw some water on my face
Back out of the stillness of our house
(Ooh)
Dishwater days
She says she doesn't notice
Nothing's changed but the sadness in her eyes
Maybe it's something that I could have prevented
Or maybe the whole damn dream was just a lie
Or maybe it's the getting by
Maybe it's the getting by
It'd swallow up your every step boy, if it could
But maybe it's the stuff it takes
To get up when the morning breaks
And hold on (hold on)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Can you hold on 'til the getting's good?
(Ooh)
You know I believe
You know I can't deny it
But people were told they'd prosper in this land
Still I know some who've never seen the ocean
Or set one foot on a velvet bed of sand
They got their treasure laying way up high
But when I look up, all I see is sky
Can you tell me
Can you tell me why?
Can you tell me
Can you tell me why?
Can you tell me
Can you tell me why?
When I look up all I see is sky
When I look up all I see is sky, sky
When I look up all I see is sky, sky
Mother can you tell me why, why
When I look up, all I see is sky, sky?
When I look up, all I see
Maybe it's the getting by
Maybe it's the getting by
It'd swallow up your every step boy, if it could
You know it would
You know it
But maybe it's the stuff it takes
To get up when the morning breaks
And hold on (hold on)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Can you hold on 'til the getting's good?
(Na na na na na, na na na na na)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Can you hold on 'til the getting's good?
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Can you hold on?
(Ooh)
When I get up she swears that she don't hear it
Quand je me lève, elle jure qu'elle ne l'entend pas
Says that I'm as quiet as a mouse
Dit que je suis aussi silencieux qu'une souris
I comb my hair and throw some water on my face
Je peigne mes cheveux et jette de l'eau sur mon visage
Back out of the stillness of our house
Je sors de la tranquillité de notre maison
(Ooh)
(Ooh)
Dishwater days
Jours de vaisselle
She says she doesn't notice
Elle dit qu'elle ne remarque pas
Nothing's changed but the sadness in her eyes
Rien n'a changé sauf la tristesse dans ses yeux
Maybe it's something that I could have prevented
Peut-être que c'est quelque chose que j'aurais pu éviter
Or maybe the whole damn dream was just a lie
Ou peut-être que tout ce putain de rêve n'était qu'un mensonge
Or maybe it's the getting by
Ou peut-être que c'est le fait de s'en sortir
Maybe it's the getting by
Peut-être que c'est le fait de s'en sortir
It'd swallow up your every step boy, if it could
Ça engloutirait chacun de tes pas, si ça le pouvait
But maybe it's the stuff it takes
Mais peut-être que c'est ce qu'il faut
To get up when the morning breaks
Pour se lever quand le matin se lève
And hold on (hold on)
Et tenir bon (tenir bon)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Peux-tu tenir bon ? (Tenir bon)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Peux-tu tenir bon ? (Tenir bon)
Can you hold on 'til the getting's good?
Peux-tu tenir bon jusqu'à ce que les choses s'améliorent ?
(Ooh)
(Ooh)
You know I believe
Tu sais que je crois
You know I can't deny it
Tu sais que je ne peux pas le nier
But people were told they'd prosper in this land
Mais on a dit aux gens qu'ils prospéreraient dans ce pays
Still I know some who've never seen the ocean
Pourtant, je connais certains qui n'ont jamais vu l'océan
Or set one foot on a velvet bed of sand
Ou posé un pied sur un lit de sable velouté
They got their treasure laying way up high
Ils ont leur trésor posé très haut
But when I look up, all I see is sky
Mais quand je regarde en haut, tout ce que je vois, c'est le ciel
Can you tell me
Peux-tu me dire
Can you tell me why?
Peux-tu me dire pourquoi ?
Can you tell me
Peux-tu me dire
Can you tell me why?
Peux-tu me dire pourquoi ?
Can you tell me
Peux-tu me dire

When I look up all I see is sky
Quand je regarde en haut, tout ce que je vois, c'est le ciel
When I look up all I see is sky, sky
Quand je regarde en haut, tout ce que je vois, c'est le ciel, le ciel
When I look up all I see is sky, sky
Quand je regarde en haut, tout ce que je vois, c'est le ciel, le ciel
Mother can you tell me why, why
Maman, peux-tu me dire pourquoi, pourquoi
When I look up, all I see is sky, sky?
Quand je regarde en haut, tout ce que je vois, c'est le ciel, le ciel ?
When I look up, all I see
Quand je regarde en haut, tout ce que je vois
Maybe it's the getting by
Peut-être que c'est le fait de s'en sortir
Maybe it's the getting by
Peut-être que c'est le fait de s'en sortir
It'd swallow up your every step boy, if it could
Ça engloutirait chacun de tes pas, si ça le pouvait
You know it would
Tu sais que ça le ferait
You know it
Tu le sais
But maybe it's the stuff it takes
Mais peut-être que c'est ce qu'il faut
To get up when the morning breaks
Pour se lever quand le matin se lève
And hold on (hold on)
Et tenir bon (tenir bon)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Peux-tu tenir bon ? (Tenir bon)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Peux-tu tenir bon ? (Tenir bon)
Can you hold on 'til the getting's good?
Peux-tu tenir bon jusqu'à ce que les choses s'améliorent ?
(Na na na na na, na na na na na)
(Na na na na na, na na na na na)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Peux-tu tenir bon ? (Tenir bon)

(Ooh)

When I get up she swears that she don't hear it
Quando eu me levanto, ela jura que não ouve
Says that I'm as quiet as a mouse
Diz que sou quieto como um rato
I comb my hair and throw some water on my face
Penteio meu cabelo e jogo água no meu rosto
Back out of the stillness of our house
Saio do silêncio da nossa casa
(Ooh)
(Ooh)
Dishwater days
Dias de lavar louça
She says she doesn't notice
Ela diz que não percebe
Nothing's changed but the sadness in her eyes
Nada mudou, exceto a tristeza em seus olhos
Maybe it's something that I could have prevented
Talvez seja algo que eu poderia ter evitado
Or maybe the whole damn dream was just a lie
Ou talvez todo o maldito sonho fosse apenas uma mentira
Or maybe it's the getting by
Ou talvez seja o sobreviver
Maybe it's the getting by
Talvez seja o sobreviver
It'd swallow up your every step boy, if it could
Engoliria cada passo seu, se pudesse
But maybe it's the stuff it takes
Mas talvez seja o que é preciso
To get up when the morning breaks
Para se levantar quando o dia amanhece
And hold on (hold on)
E aguentar (aguentar)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Você consegue aguentar? (Aguentar)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Você consegue aguentar? (Aguentar)
Can you hold on 'til the getting's good?
Você consegue aguentar até que as coisas melhorem?
(Ooh)
(Ooh)
You know I believe
Você sabe que eu acredito
You know I can't deny it
Você sabe que não posso negar
But people were told they'd prosper in this land
Mas as pessoas foram informadas de que prosperariam nesta terra
Still I know some who've never seen the ocean
Ainda assim, conheço alguns que nunca viram o oceano
Or set one foot on a velvet bed of sand
Ou colocaram um pé numa cama de areia aveludada
They got their treasure laying way up high
Eles têm seus tesouros bem lá no alto
But when I look up, all I see is sky
Mas quando olho para cima, tudo que vejo é o céu
Can you tell me
Você pode me dizer
Can you tell me why?
Você pode me dizer por quê?
Can you tell me
Você pode me dizer

Você pode me dizer por quê?

When I look up all I see is sky, sky
Quando olho para cima, tudo que vejo é o céu, céu
When I look up all I see is sky, sky
Quando olho para cima, tudo que vejo é o céu, céu
Mother can you tell me why, why
Mãe, você pode me dizer por quê, por quê
When I look up, all I see is sky, sky?
Quando olho para cima, tudo que vejo é o céu, céu?
When I look up, all I see

Maybe it's the getting by
Talvez seja o sobreviver

It'd swallow up your every step boy, if it could

They got their treasure laying way up high

Back out of the stillness of our house
Esco dal silenzio della nostra casa

Dishwater days
Giorni di lavare i piatti

Dice che non se ne accorge
Nothing's changed but the sadness in her eyes
Niente è cambiato tranne la tristezza nei suoi occhi
Maybe it's something that I could have prevented
Forse è qualcosa che avrei potuto prevenire
Or maybe the whole damn dream was just a lie
O forse l'intero maledetto sogno era solo una bugia
Or maybe it's the getting by
O forse è il tirare avanti
Maybe it's the getting by
Forse è il tirare avanti
It'd swallow up your every step boy, if it could
Ti inghiottirebbe ad ogni passo, ragazzo, se potesse

Per alzarsi quando l'alba si rompe
