Текст песни Hijo (We're About 9) с переводом

I am a book from the 20th century

On the top of your bureau drawer

And my chapters are a bit out of order now

But if you are patient

You can find what you are looking for

I am a rough draft

And I am an edit

I’m the third time around

And I still don’t get it

I was you

In another life that I worked my way through

I spent all my time

Learning this the hard way

The only way that I know how to

And I’ll be damned if I won’t pass

That on to you

Hijo

There is a bookmark

On page twenty-seven

'Cause I thought it might remind you of

Something you were going through

And there’s a note in the afterword

From my worst critic

And I thought you

Might understand what he’s talking about

When he said that I’m all washed out

And I was you

In another life that I worked my way through

I spent all my time

Learning this the hard way

The only way that I know how to

And I’ll be damned if I won’t pass

That on to you

Hijo

I hope you like the illustration

I armed my hands with charcoal

And drew them myself

I hope you like the binding

It all my life to get it

To gather so well

Hijo

Hijo

I am book from the 20th century

On the top of your bureau drawer

And you can file me away

To read later

But I may not be there

Anymore
