if I Were a Good Man, I'd Talk With You More Often Than I Do

Atom hearth Mother Pink Floyd'un pek de alışılmadık bir tarz denediği 70 çıkışlı albümü. Albüm aynı zamanda grubun en uzun şarkısını da barındırıyor: Atom Hearth Mother Suite.

Ancak bu post'un konusu If. Roger Waters'ın söylediği bu şarkı tek kelimeyle özetlemek gerekirse, pürüzsüz.



if i were a swan, i'd be gone.
if i were a train, i'd be late.
and if i were a good man,
i'd talk with you seninle
more often than i do.

if i were to sleep, i could dream.
if i were afraid, i could hide.
if i go insane, please don't put
your wires in my brain.

if i were the moon, i'd be cool.
if i were a book, i would bend for you.
if i were a good man, i'd understand
the spaces between friends.

if i were alone, i would cry.
and if i were with you, i'd be home and dry.
and if i go insane,
and they lock me away,
will you still let me join in the game?

if i were a swan, i'd be gone.
if i were a train, i'd be late again.
if i were a good man,
i'd talk with you
more often than i do.
