He was a husband who drove his wife home drunk from the parties
Karısını partilerden sarhoşken evine götüren bir kocaydı
He was a husband who drove his wife home
Karısını eve götüren bir kocaydı
And in the car he would gently lean her head on the side door window
Arabada nazikçe başını kapı penceresine yaslardı
And in the bathroom he would hold her hair back and hope, saying;
Ve banyoda başını arkaya yatırıp umardı
They build buildings oh they build buildings oh they build buildings
Bina inşa ediyorlar
So tall these days
Şu sıralar ne kadar uzun
And in the morning she'd wake up and crouch recollections all day
But she would always always wake up the next morning
And he'd take one look at her a say baby that's ok
And her conscience would issue yet another last warning, saying;
They build buildings oh they build buildings oh they build buildings
Bina inşa ediyorlar
So tall these days
Şu sıralar ne kadar uzun
And she would ask for time
Saati sorabilirdi
And she would beg for time,
Saati yalvarabilirdi
And beg for time and call it a gift
Saat için yalvarıp hediye derdi
And he would give her time
Ve ona zaman verirdi
And he'd give her time
Ona zamanını verirdi
But time is not given and time is not taken
Ama zaman verilmedi alınmadı
It just sifts through its sift
Kabuğundan ayıklanıyor
And it was coffee and coffee and coffee
Ve kahvedendi bu
He'd go to work and she'd take a sick day and rot at the core
İşe gider ve hasta bir gün geçirirdi ve çekirdeği bozardı
And by the time he came back
Geri geldiği zaman
She'd scrub the bathroom and make it smell like pine
Banyoyu fırçalar ve ananas gibi kokuturdu
It would be almost as if nothing had happened
Hiçbir şey olmamış gibi olurdu
And he'd give her time, saying;
Ve zaman verirdi söylerdi
They build buildings oh they build buildings oh they build buildings
Bina inşa ediyorlar
So tall these days
Şu sıralar ne kadar uzun
And she would ask for time
Saati sorabilirdi
And she would beg for time,
Saati yalvarabilirdi
And beg for time and call it a gift
Saat için yalvarıp hediye derdi
And he would give her time
Ve ona zaman verirdi
And he'd give her time
Ona zamanını verirdi
But time is not given and time is not taken
Ama zaman verilmedi alınmadı
It just sifts through its sift
Kabuğundan ayıklanıyor
He was a husband drove time home pine scrub bathroom window
Banyo penceresini silen bir kocaydı o
Don't they build buildings so tall these days...
Bugünlerde ne kadar uzun binalar...
