Who Would You Be For Me
Emily Haines, James Shaw
Coming on ever so strong
Coming off ever so weak
Coming off ever so wrong
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your mind
Still as the night
Coming on ever so fast
Burning off whiskey and weed
Coming off ever so deep
Rhyming every line
Ranting rapid-fire
Scripting the night
We met on the 6th of June
2-0-0-2
On the southbound subway
You said what, now?
The years have served
The rest went unheard
And you already knew my name
I sang for you the softest tune
On the 6th of June
In the park at 10th and 8th
How's it go, now?
The saddest tune, on the 6th of June
In the park at 10th and 8th
Growing up ever so slow
Come of age ever so late
Planning my quiet escape
Trying to disappear
One day at a time
Leaving no sign
Putting off getting in line
Putting off knowing my place
Coming off ever so crazed
Ways of stopping time
Driving my willpower
Still as the night
We met on the 6th of June
2-0-0-2
And I served you attitude
But sometimes I'd serve you coffee, too
With the overnight crew
Before they closed that cafe
I sang for you the softest tune
On the 6th of June
In the park at 10th and 8th
How's it go, now?
The saddest tune, on the 6th of June
In the park at 10th and 8th
This city's been mean to you lately
But when will you ever leave?
I could be the girl for you
But who would you be for me?
Be for me, oh, oh
Coming on ever so strong
Viniendo tan fuerte
Coming off ever so weak
Yendo tan débil
Coming off ever so wrong
Yéndote tan mal
Hold me in your arms
Abrázame en tus brazos
Hold me in your mind
Abrázame en tu mente
Still as the night
Quieto como la noche
Coming on ever so fast
Viniendo tan rápido
Burning off whiskey and weed
Quemando whisky y hierba
Coming off ever so deep
Yéndote tan profundo
Rhyming every line
Rimando cada línea
Ranting rapid-fire
Despotricando a toda velocidad
Scripting the night
Escribiendo la noche
We met on the 6th of June
Nos conocimos el 6 de junio

You said what, now?

The years have served

The rest went unheard
El resto quedó inaudito
And you already knew my name
Y ya conocías mi nombre
I sang for you the softest tune
Te canté la melodía más suave
On the 6th of June
El 6 de junio
In the park at 10th and 8th

The saddest tune, on the 6th of June
La melodía más triste, el 6 de junio
In the park at 10th and 8th
En el parque de la 10 y la 8
Growing up ever so slow
Creciendo tan lentamente
Come of age ever so late
Llegando a la mayoría de edad tan tarde
Planning my quiet escape
Planeando mi silenciosa huida
Trying to disappear
Intentando desaparecer
One day at a time
Un día a la vez
Leaving no sign
No dejando rastro
Putting off getting in line
Posponiendo ponerme en fila
Putting off knowing my place
Posponiendo conocer mi lugar
Coming off ever so crazed
Desvaneciéndote tan loco
Ways of stopping time
Maneras de detener el tiempo
Driving my willpower
Conduciendo mi fuerza de voluntad
Still as the night
Quieto como la noche
We met on the 6th of June
Nos conocimos el 6 de junio

And I served you attitude
Y te mostré actitud
But sometimes I'd serve you coffee, too
Pero a veces también te servía café
With the overnight crew
Con el equipo de la noche
Before they closed that cafe
Antes de que cerraran ese café
I sang for you the softest tune
Te canté la melodía más suave
On the 6th of June

This city's been mean to you lately

But when will you ever leave?
¿Pero cuándo te irás?
I could be the girl for you
Podría ser la chica para ti
But who would you be for me?
¿Pero quién serías tú para mí?
Be for me, oh, oh
Sé para mí, oh, oh
Coming on ever so strong
Aproximando-se tão forte
Coming off ever so weak
Desaparecendo tão fraco
Coming off ever so wrong
Saindo tão errado
Hold me in your arms
Segure-me em seus braços
Hold me in your mind
Guarde-me em sua mente
Still as the night
Imóvel como a noite
Coming on ever so fast
Aproximando-se tão rápido
Burning off whiskey and weed
Queimando uísque e erva
Coming off ever so deep
Saindo tão profundo
Rhyming every line
Rimando cada linha
Ranting rapid-fire
Falando rápido e furioso

One day at a time
Um dia de cada vez
Leaving no sign
Não deixando nenhum sinal
Putting off getting in line
Adiando entrar na fila
Putting off knowing my place
Adiando conhecer meu lugar
Coming off ever so crazed
Saindo tão louco
Ways of stopping time
Maneiras de parar o tempo
Driving my willpower
Dirigindo minha força de vontade
Still as the night
Imóvel como a noite
