[ Home to Us - Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr ]
The place we used to live in
You could say it wasn’t much
But it was home to us
And you could be forgiven
If you thought that it was rough
But it was home to us
The roses in the yard began to wilt
And then they turned to dust
But it was home to us
We didn’t worry where the road was going to take us to
There wasn’t time to make a fuss ‘cause that was all we knew
The world around us wasn’t safe
The place was falling down
But it was my hometown
And it was home to us
The lady on the hill was drinking brandy
Eating caviar the perfect host
My mum was in the kitchen washing dishes in the sink
And then she burnt the toast
The kids are in the alley playing ball
Until the sun goes down
But that was my hometown
And it was home to us
(We didn’t worry where the road was going to lead us to)
There wasn’t time to make a fuss ‘cause that was all we knew
(The world around us wasn’t safe)
The place was falling down
But that was my hometown
And it was all I knew
‘Cause it was home to us
The place we used to play
Was in the middle of the street
But it was home to us
And when the skies were grey
It didn’t matter anyway
But it was home to us
The roses in the yard began to wilt
And then they turned to dust
But it was home to us
Yeah it was home to us
Yeah it was home to u
Tradução
O lugar onde a gente costumava viver
Você poderia dizer que não era grande coisa
Mas era o nosso lar
E você poderia ser perdoado
Se achasse que era um lugar difícil
Mas era o nosso lar
As rosas no quintal começaram a murchar
E depois viraram poeira
Mas era o nosso lar
A gente não se preocupava para onde a estrada iria nos levar
Não havia tempo para reclamar, porque era tudo o que conhecíamos
O mundo ao nosso redor não era seguro
O lugar estava desmoronando
Mas era a minha cidade natal
E era o nosso lar
A mulher na colina estava bebendo conhaque
Comendo caviar, a anfitriã perfeita
Minha mãe estava na cozinha lavando a louça na pia
E então ela queimou a torrada
As crianças estão no beco jogando bola
Até o sol se pôr
Mas aquela era a minha cidade natal
E era o nosso lar
(A gente não se preocupava para onde a estrada iria nos levar)
Não havia tempo para reclamar, porque era tudo o que conhecíamos
(O mundo ao nosso redor não era seguro)
O lugar estava desmoronando
Mas aquela era a minha cidade natal
E era tudo o que eu conhecia
Porque era o nosso lar
O lugar onde a gente costumava brincar
Ficava no meio da rua
Mas era o nosso lar
E quando o céu ficava cinza
Isso não importava de qualquer forma
Mas era o nosso lar
As rosas no quintal começaram a murchar
E depois viraram poeira
Mas era o nosso lar
Sim, era o nosso lar
Sim, era o nosso lar
