Перевод песни Keane - Better than this

Is this what you meant?

Is this what you dreamed of

When you were making your plans

Shaking the dirt off?

Do you feel like you and I belong?

Just keep your eyes on the road

And nothing can go wrong

You can do so much better than this

You can do so much better than this

I’ve been checking my sums

Oh where did the time go?

Holding my photograph up to the window

Through the paper and refracted sun

I can see all the things I wish that I’d done

You can hang your hopes on the medicine

You can put your faith in the phone-in

You can tell yourself you’re doing your best

You can do so much better than this

Get a grip on yourself

Get a grip on yourself

Could have been something but you’re too late

And you weren’t invited anyway

Because the photographs show the wrong man

Because there is no soap star holding your hand

You don’t see yourself in the freeze frame

Must be someone else using your name

And everyone will be the same

And everyone will glow

And everywhere you’ll see your name

In every shop window

It’s better than this

You can do so much better than this

You can do so much better than this

You can do so much better than this
