Walk Like A Giant / Camminare come un gigante
[In the face of failure, where there is
love, there is always hope. You might ask yourself, “why would I
walk like a giant?” NY]
I used to walk like a giant on the
land
Now I feel like a leaf floating in a stream
I want to walk like a giant
I want to walk like a giant on the land
Me and some of my friends
We were gonna save the world
We were tryin' to make it better
We were ready to save the world
Now I feel like a leaf floating in a stream
I want to walk like a giant
I want to walk like a giant on the land
Me and some of my friends
We were gonna save the world
We were tryin' to make it better
We were ready to save the world
But then the weather changed
And the white got stained
And it fell apart
And it breaks my heart
To think about how close we came
I want to walk like a giant on the land
I want to walk like a giant on the land
The tracks ahead were long and straight
We were ridin' on the desert wind
We were pullin' in the spiritual
Ridin' in on the desert wind
And it fell apart
And it breaks my heart
To think about how close we came
I want to walk like a giant on the land
I want to walk like a giant on the land
The tracks ahead were long and straight
We were ridin' on the desert wind
We were pullin' in the spiritual
Ridin' in on the desert wind
We can see it in the distance
Gettin' closer every minute
We saw the lights of spiritual shinin'
Gettin' closer every minute
Then we skipped the rails
And we started to fail
And we folded up
And it's not enough
To think about how close we came
I want to walk like a giant on the land
I want to walk like a giant on the land
Whenever I see the big fire comin'
Comin' to burn down all my ideas
I try to hold to my thinking
Remember how it feels
When I'm looking right in your eyes
And hearing your happy laughing
When I'm seeing your blue eyes shinin'
And hearing your happy laughing
So the moment came
And we folded up
And it's not enough
To think about how close we came
I want to walk like a giant on the land
I want to walk like a giant on the land
Whenever I see the big fire comin'
Comin' to burn down all my ideas
I try to hold to my thinking
Remember how it feels
When I'm looking right in your eyes
And hearing your happy laughing
When I'm seeing your blue eyes shinin'
And hearing your happy laughing
So the moment came
And the big sky rained
And it put out the fire
Except in my desire
And I think about how good it feels
I want to walk like a giant on the land
I want to walk like a giant on the land
I used to walk like a giant on the land
Now I feel like a leaf floating in a stream
I used to walk like a giant
I used to walk like a giant on the land
And it put out the fire
Except in my desire
And I think about how good it feels
I want to walk like a giant on the land
I want to walk like a giant on the land
I used to walk like a giant on the land
Now I feel like a leaf floating in a stream
I used to walk like a giant
I used to walk like a giant on the land

[A dispetto del fallimento, dove c'è
amore c'è sempre speranza. Potresti domandare a te stesso, “perché
camminerei come un gigante?” NY]
Un tempo camminavo come un gigante
sulla terra
Ora mi sento come una foglia trascinata
nella corrente
Voglio camminare come un gigante
Voglio camminare come un gigante sulla
terra
Io e alcuni miei amici
Stavamo per salvare il mondo
Stavamo cercando di renderlo migliore
Eravamo pronti per salvare il mondo
Ma poi il tempo è cambiato e il bianco
s'è macchiato d'inchiostro
Ed è andato in pezzi
E mi spezza il cuore
Pensare a quanto ci siamo andati vicino
Voglio camminare come un gigante sulla
terra
Voglio camminare come un gigante sulla
terra
La pista davanti a noi era lunga e
dritta
Cavalcavamo il vento del deserto
Entravamo nello spirituale
Cavalcando nel vento del deserto
Lo possiamo vedere da lontano
Farsi più vicino ogni minuto
Vedevamo brillare le luci dello spirito
Farsi più vicine ogni minuto
Poi abbiamo saltato lo steccato e
abbiamo iniziato a cadere
E ci siamo piegati
E non è abbastanza
Pensare a quanto ci siamo andati vicino
Voglio camminare come un gigante sulla
terra
Voglio camminare come un gigante sulla
terra
Ogni volta che vedo il grande fuoco
arrivare
Arrivare per carbonizzare tutte le mie
idee
Cerco di aggrapparmi al mio pensiero
Ricordare cosa prova
Mentre guardo dritto nei tuoi occhi
E sento la tua risata felice
Mentre vedo brillare i tuoi occhi
azzurri
E sento la tua risata felice
Così arriva il momento e piove dal
grande cielo
E spegne il fuoco
Ma non nel mio desiderio
E penso a quanto si sente bene
Voglio camminare come un gigante sulla
terra
Voglio camminare come un gigante sulla
terra
Un tempo camminavo come un gigante
sulla terra
Ora mi sento come una foglia trascinata
nella corrente
Voglio camminare come un gigante
Voglio camminare come un gigante sulla
terra
