I came across a cache of old photos
00:37
And invitations to teenage parties
00:41
"Dress in white" one said, with quotations
00:44
From someone's wife, a famous writer
00:49
In my 1920's
00:52
When you're young, you find inspiration
00:55
In anyone who's ever gone
01:00
And opened up a closing door
01:04
She said we were never feeling bored
01:09
'Cause we were never being boring
01:15
We had too much time to find for ourselves
01:19
And we were never being boring
01:23
We dressed up and fought, then thought make amends
01:27
And we were never holding back or worried that
01:31
Time would come to an end
01:36
01:40
When I went, I left from the station
01:43
With a haversack and some trepidation
01:46
Someone said If you're not careful
01:50
You'll have nothing left and nothing to care for
01:54
In my 1970's
01:58
But I sat back and looking forward
02:03
My shoes were high and I had scored
02:07
I'd bolted through a closing door
02:10
And I would never find myself feeling bored
02:14
'Cause we were never being boring
02:21
We had too much time to find for ourselves
02:25
And we were never being boring
02:29
We dressed up and fought, then thought make amends
02:33
And we were never holding back or worried that
02:37
Time would come to an end
02:42
We were always hoping that, looking back
02:45
You could always rely on a friend
02:50
02:54
Now I sit with different faces
03:07
In rented rooms and foreign places
03:10
All the people I was kissing
03:14
Some are here and some are missing
03:18
In my 1990's
03:22
I never dreamed that I would get to be
03:26
The creature that I always meant to be
03:30
But I thought in spite of dreams
03:35
You'd be sitting somewhere here with me
03:39
'Cause we were never being boring
03:45
We had too much time to find for ourselves
03:49
And we were never being boring
03:53
We dressed up and fought, then thought make amends
03:57
And we were never holding back or worried that
04:01
Time would come to an end
04:06
We were always hoping that, looking back
04:09
You could always rely on a friend
04:14
And we were never being boring
04:18
We had too much time to find for ourselves
04:21
And we were never being boring
04:34
We dressed up and fought, then thought make amends
04:39
And we were never being boring
04:42
We were never being bored
04:44
'Cause we were never being boring
04:45
We were never being bored
04:46
04:47
Letras y Traducción
[Español]
Me encontré con un montón de fotos viejas
E invitaciones a fiestas de adolescencia
"Vístete de blanco" decía una, entre comillas
De la esposa de alguien, una escritora famosa
En mis años veinte
Cuando eres joven, encuentras inspiración
En cualquiera que haya seguido adelante
Y abierto una puerta que se cerraba
Ella dijo que nunca nos aburríamos
Porque nunca fuimos aburridos
Tuvimos demasiado tiempo para encontrarnos
Y nunca fuimos aburridos
Nos vestíamos, luchábamos, luego hacíamos las paces
Nunca nos contuvimos ni temimos que
El tiempo se acabara
...
Cuando me fui, salí de la estación
Con una mochila y algo de temor
Alguien dijo: "Si no tienes cuidado"
"No te quedará nada ni nadie que importe"
En mis años setenta
Pero me relajé y miré hacia adelante
Mis tacones altos y yo triunfábamos
Había cruzado una puerta que se cerraba
Y nunca más me sentiría aburrido
Porque nunca fuimos aburridos
Tuvimos demasiado tiempo para encontrarnos
Y nunca fuimos aburridos
Nos vestíamos, luchábamos, luego hacíamos las paces
Nunca nos contuvimos ni temimos que
El tiempo se acabara
Siempre esperamos que, al mirar atrás
Un amigo nunca te fallara
...
Ahora me siento con caras distintas
En cuartos alquilados y lugares lejanos
Todas las personas que besé un día
Algunas están aquí, otras se perdieron
En mis años noventa
Nunca soñé que llegaría a ser
La criatura que siempre quise ser
Pero pensé que, pese a los sueños
Estarías aquí sentado junto a mí
Porque nunca fuimos aburridos
Tuvimos demasiado tiempo para encontrarnos
Y nunca fuimos aburridos
Nos vestíamos, luchábamos, luego hacíamos las paces
Nunca nos contuvimos ni temimos que
El tiempo se acabara
Siempre esperamos que, al mirar atrás
Un amigo nunca te fallara
Y nunca fuimos aburridos
Tuvimos demasiado tiempo para encontrarnos
Y nunca fuimos aburridos
Nos vestíamos, luchábamos, luego hacíamos las paces
Y nunca fuimos aburridos
Nunca nos aburrimos
Porque nunca fuimos aburridos
Nunca nos aburrimos
...
