Paolo Nutini - Tricks Of The Trade Lyrics






Was it love or recognition that has
Healed this man's condition
I'm hoping and I'm wishing that
This bird won't fly away
We can see life hand in hand,
The green, the blue, the rough, the sand
And in our time and in our land
We'll savor everyday

And oh, how our glory may fade,
At least we've learned
Some things along the way

You took me from my bubble
Knowing my defense was weak
And you sat there and you listened
Any time I chose to speak
You gathered from my pleas to
You that I am but a clown
And I fear only a hero can defeat
These demons now

And oh, how our glory may fade,
At least we've learned some
Tricks of trade

And as time shall inevitably move on,
Oh well, at least we'll have four strong
Legs to stand on
To keep us alive...

    Was it love or recognition
    That has healed this man's condition?
    Oh, I'm hoping and wishing
    That this bird won't fly away
    And we can see life hand in hand
    The green, the blue, the rock, the sand
    And in our time and in our land
    We'll savor every day
    And oh, how our glory may fade
    Fade, well, at least we've learned
    Some things along the way
    Oh, you took me from my bubble
    Knowing my defense was weak
    And you sat there and you listened
    Anytime I chose to speak
    Oh, and you gather from my pleas to you
    That I am but a clown
    No fear…

    Dedicato ad un sogno:

    "E’ stato l’amore o il riconoscimento a curare la condizione di quest’uomo?
    Oh, sto sperando e desiderando che questo uccello non voli via.
    E possiamo vedere la vita mano nella mano
    Il verde, il blu, le pietre, la sabbia
    E nel nostro tempo, e nella nostra terra, ci godremo ogni giorno.
    E quanto può svanire la nostra gloria.

    Svanire, beh, almeno abbiamo imparato alcune cose strada facendo.

    Oh Mi hai portato via dalla mia bolla sapendo che la mia difesa era debole.

    E ti sei seduta li e hai ascoltato ogni qualvolta io scegliessi di parlare.

    Hai dedotto dalle richieste che ti ho fatto che sono tutto meno che un pagliaccio?
    Non temere, solo un eroe può sconfiggere questi demoni ora.
    Oh quanto può svanire la nostra gloria
    Svanire, beh, almeno abbiamo imparato alcuni trucchi del mestiere.

    E mentre il tempo inevitabilmente andrà avanti,
    Beh, almeno avremo quattro gambe forti su cui stare, per mantenerci vivi"

    r.... d....

    Remember this. Love is but a shower of what your missing within and what it is to really love. Yourself. Once you love you; you have a whole bunch of people who want to experience the love you have give. Love is a kind gesture to a stranger or a smile back. Just as long as you apprieciate it and dont let it make you be fool. Its a tricky street but the universe is always watching for when you die as all will! Love You.

    Why is it that most of the best songs are too short and always seem to be 2.30 mins max. Where's the replay button on youtube!
