Adele – I Drink Wine Traduzione in Italiano(5.22)
Adele – I Drink Wine
How can one become so bounded (limitati/legati)
By choices that somebody else makes?
How come we’ve both become a version of a person we don’t even like?We’re in love with the world
But the world just wants to bring us down
By putting ideas in our heads
That corrupt our hearts somehow
When I was a child Every single thing could blow my mind
Soaking it all up (Immerso in tutto) for fun
But now I only soak up assorbo wine
They say to play hard, you work hard
Find – balance (equilibrio) in the sacrifice
Yet I don’t know anybody nessuno Who’s truly satisfied
You better (faresti meglio)believe I’m trying (trying, trying)
To keep (continuare) climbing (climbing, climbing) but the higher we climb
Feels like (Sembra) we’re both none the wiser (ahh)
So I hope I learn to get over myself superare me stesso
Stop trying to be somebody else
So we can love each other for free gratuitamente
Everybody wants something
You just want me
Why am I obsessing about the things I can’t control?
Why am I Seeking (cercando) approval From people I don’t even know?
In these crazy times I hope to find
Something I can cling on to (aggrapparmi)
‘Cause I need some substance in my life
Something real, something that feels true
You better believe for you I’ve cried (I’ve cried, I’ve cried)
High tides (high tides, high tides)
‘Cause I want you so bad But you can’t fight fire with fire (ahh)
Oh, so I hope I learn to get over myself
Stop trying to be somebody else
Oh, I just want to love you (so we can love)
Love you for free (each other for free)
Everybody wants something from me
You just want me
Listen, I know how low I can go
I give as good as I get
You get the brunt (colpo/impatto) of it all
‘Cause you’re all I’ve got left
Oh, I hope in time (hope in time)
We both will find (we both find) peace of mind
Sometimes the road less traveled
is a road best left behind (ahh)
Well, I hope I learn to get over superare myself
Stop trying to be somebody else
Oh, I just want to love you (so we can love)
Love you for free, yeah (each other for free)
‘Cause everybody wants something from me
You just want me
You better believe I’m trying (trying, trying)
To keep climbing (climbing, climbing)
but the higher we climb
Feels like we’re both none the wiser
The only regret I have
I wish that it was just at a different time
A most turbulent period of my life
Why would I put that on you?
That’s just like a very heavy thing to have to talk about
But because of that period of time
Even though it was so much fun
I didn’t get to go on and make new memories with him
There was just memories in a big storm
