Bravi Ragazzi
Miguel Bosé
Tough Guys
Verse 1)
Tough guys, we're my friends
All poets from '56 (fifty-six)
Strolling in a world that gives itself away
Life is just acrobatics
(Chorus 1)
We walk on the sky wire
More than a hundred meters from the asphalt
We're a dot up there
Flags in the city wind
(Verse 2)
And standing up is almost magic
Among so many scams, so much hypocrisy
We move forward without ever looking down
Can't go back anymore
(Chorus 2)
We walk aimlessly in a world
That's almost hitting rock bottom
Suspended in time
In crisis for an eternity
(Middle)
I live as I can, my friend
I don't know who I am or what will become of me
My future is a few meters ahead
I just follow my own path
(Chorus 3)
We walk on the sky wire
You can fall at any moment
Suspended in time
Exhausted in the city wind
(Coda)
We are elsewhere
Far away, who knows where
Coming from a long winter
Straight from hell
All of us tough guys
All of us falling apart
On these streets, so many people
Streets that lead nowhere
Half bright, half sad
All of us poor souls
In these heartless years
In this life always the same
All of us tough guys
All of us falling apart...
