Mikael Gabriel - Tokio - translation of the lyrics into English

Lyrics and translation Mikael Gabriel - Tokio




Tokio
Tokyo
mietin välil sitä, miten onnellinen oon
I sometimes wonder how happy I am
Että synnyit samaan maailmaan
That you were born into the same world
Tai miten vaikeeta ois ollu löytää toisensa
Or how difficult it would have been to find each other
Jos oisit Tokiost ja Vantaalt
If you were from Tokyo and I from Vantaa
Mut oisin löytäny sut kuitenkin
But I would have found you anyway
lupaan
I promise
Elämä on lyhyt niin ku katkennu lanka
Life is short like a broken thread
Meni vaa hetki, oltii kasvettu vanhaks
In just a moment, we had grown old
Ei tullu laskettuu aikaa
We didn't count the time
Oli kesä, ku ei kukkii kasteltu lainkaa
It was summer, when we didn't water the flowers at all
Selvittii paljost paljon selvittämät
Went through a lot of unsolved problems
Yksin tai hiljaa sun kaa hengittämät
Alone or silently breathing with you
Pakottava tarve olla ensimmäinen
A compelling need to be the first
Vaikee sanoo sulle selvin päin se
It's hard to tell you with a clear mind
Oltii liian nuorii ja itsenäisii
We were too young and independent
Mut päätettii itse oltii itsepäisii
But we decided to be stubborn
Jos sua itkettää ni yhes itkettäisii
If you cry, we'll cry together
Välil sun kaa ollu pitkii päivii
Sometimes the days were long with you
Mutten löydä vastauksii valvomalla
But I can't find answers by staying up all night
Sul on merkitystä, ei mammonalla
You have meaning, not money
Vaa sil, mitä on rinnan ja kallon alla
But what's under your chest and skull
mietin välil sitä, miten onnellinen oon
I sometimes wonder how happy I am
Että synnyit samaan maailmaan
That you were born into the same world
Tai miten vaikeeta ois ollu löytää toisensa
Or how difficult it would have been to find each other
Jos oisit Tokiost ja Vantaalt
If you were from Tokyo and I from Vantaa
Mut oisin löytäny sut kuitenkin
But I would have found you anyway
lupaan
I promise
Pilvet muodostaa sust muotokuvan
Clouds form a portrait of you
Sun flow menee joka nuotin mukaan
Your flow matches every note
oot tyyni ku tuuleton
You're as calm as a windless night
Korva sun rintaa vasten, ku se lyö
My ear on your chest as it beats
oot sisält kauniimpi ku mikää
You're more beautiful inside than anything
Vaik menetän kaikki, ni haluun sut pitää
Even if I lose everything, I want to keep you
Mitään uskaltanu unelmoida
Couldn't dream of anything
Kun nukuttii, annettii musiikin soida
When we slept, we let the music play
Otin sust kii sanoin: "Pidän sut lähel"
I took hold of you and said: "I'll keep you close"
Jos oot tippumas, kurotan käden
If you're falling, I'll reach out a hand
Ja vaik sunki kengis on kivii
And even if there are stones in your shoes
Sun epäkohdat on täydellisii
Your flaws are perfect
mietin välil sitä, miten onnellinen oon
I sometimes wonder how happy I am
Että synnyit samaan maailmaan
That you were born into the same world
Tai miten vaikeeta ois ollu löytää toisensa
Or how difficult it would have been to find each other
Jos oisit Tokiost ja Vantaalt
If you were from Tokyo and I from Vantaa
Mut oisin hulluks kai tullu jos mul ei ois sua
But I would have gone crazy if I didn't have you
lupaan
I promise
