Such A Small Love by Scott Walker
Such A Small Love lyrics
Verse 1
Mist falls and his voice cracks from the morning
Flowers and my body feels like lead
Someone should have stopped the birds from singing today
Hammers from striking nails into clay
Her face penetrates the blue gray morning
Her eyes pregnant pools produce a tear
Someone should have shouted you had gone in her ear
That summer was stolen away
Chorus
Such a small love, such a little tear
You would laugh so loud if you could see us here
With my one suit badly pressed and worn
Like a child left in the world alone
Verse 2
He speaks I don't hear a word he's saying
Hang on to the pine trees and the snow
Reach out grab the memories that are left for your hand
They'll help you get by for a while
Chorus 2
Such a small love, such a little tear
Is this all that's left on your cheek so pale?
His shallow half lit eyes, his rotted teeth groan on
Our drunken madmen nights ending up in jail
Midnight mornings drenched in Dago red*
Words collided, things we left unsaid
Perfumed pillows, girls that clung so near
Such a small love, such a little tear
* 'Dago red' is a rough red wine
Mist ca�das y su voz grietas de la ma�ana
Flowers and my body feels like lead Flores y mi cuerpo se siente como el plomo
Someone should have stopped the birds from singing today Alguien deber�a haber dejado el canto de las aves de hoy
Hammers from striking nails into clay Martillos de golpear clavos en arcilla
Her face penetrates the blue gray morning Su cara penetra en el azul gris ma�ana
Her eyes pregnant pools produce a tear Sus ojos embarazadas piscinas producir un desgarro
Someone should have shouted you had gone in her ear Alguien deber�a haber gritado que hab�a ido a su oreja
That summer was stolen away Ese verano fue robada fuera
Such a small love Ese peque�o amor
Such a little tear Estas un poco de desgarro
You would laugh so loud Usted se r�en por lo alto
If you could see us here Si pudieras ver con nosotros aqu�
With my one suit Con un traje de mi
Badly pressed and worn Presionado y mal gastada
Like a child left Al igual que un ni�o abandonado
In the world alone En el mundo solo
He speaks I don't hear a word he's saying Habla no escucho una palabra que est� diciendo
Hang on to the pine trees and the snow Hang a los pinos y la nieve
Reach out grab the memories that are left for your hand Llegar a captar los recuerdos que quedan de la mano
They'll help you get by for a while Ellos le ayudan a obtener por un rato
Such a small love Ese peque�o amor
Such a little tear Estas un poco de desgarro
Is this all that's left �Es esto todo lo que la izquierda
On your cheek so pale En su mejilla para que p�lido
His shallow half lit eyes Su media superficial ojos iluminados
His rotted teeth grown on Su podrido crecido en los dientes
A drunken madman nights Un borracho loco noches
Ending up in hjail Acabar en hjail
With night fallings Con la noche fallings
Drenched in day-glo red Ba�adas en d�a-glo rojo
Words collided Las palabras choc�
Things we left unsaid Cosas que la izquierda no dicho
Perfumed pillows Perfumada almohadas
Girls that clung so near Las ni�as que se aferran tan cerca
Such a small love Ese peque�o amor
Such a little tear Estas un poco de desgarro
