Baker Street
Gerald Rafferty
Winding your way down on Baker Street
Light in your head and dead on your feet
Well, another crazy day
You'll drink the night away
And forget about everything
This city desert makes you feel so cold
It's got so many people, but it's got no soul
And it's taken you so long
To find out you were wrong
When you thought it held everything
You used to think that it was so easy
You used to say that it was so easy
But you're trying, you're trying now
Another year and then you'd be happy
Just one more year and then you'd be happy
But you're crying, you're crying now
Way down the street there's a light in his place
He opens the door, he's got that look on his face
And he asks you where you've been
You tell him who you've seen
And you talk about anything
He's got this dream about buying some land
He's gonna give up the booze and the one-night stands
And then he'll settle down
In some quiet little town
And forget about everything
But you know he'll always keep moving
You know he's never gonna stop moving
'Cause he's rolling, he's the rolling stone
And when you wake up, it's a new morning
The sun is shining, it's a new morning
And you're going, you're going home
Baker Street: Uma Jornada pela Desilusão Urbana
A música "Baker Street" de Gerry Rafferty é uma narrativa melódica que captura a essência da desilusão urbana e a busca por significado em meio à rotina exaustiva da vida na cidade. A letra descreve a jornada de um indivíduo que caminha pela famosa rua londrina, Baker Street, refletindo sobre a vida e suas escolhas. A expressão "Windin' your way down on Baker Street" sugere um percurso sinuoso, talvez uma metáfora para as complexidades e desvios da vida.
A canção aborda a solidão e o vazio existencial que podem acompanhar a vida na metrópole, onde "it's got so many people but it's got no soul". Essa linha ressalta a ironia de estar cercado por uma multidão, mas ainda assim sentir-se isolado e desconectado. A busca por felicidade é um tema recorrente, com o protagonista adiando constantemente sua satisfação para o futuro, sempre dizendo "Another year and then you'll be happy". A repetição do "you're tryin', you're tryin' now" e "but you're cryin', you're cryin' now" enfatiza a luta contínua e a desilusão que acompanham essa busca.
Musicalmente, "Baker Street" é conhecida por seu icônico solo de saxofone, que se tornou um dos mais reconhecíveis na história do rock. Gerry Rafferty, um cantor e compositor escocês, conseguiu com essa música capturar a sensação de inquietação e desejo de escapar para uma vida mais simples. A referência ao "rollin' stone" pode ser vista como uma alusão ao ditado "a rolling stone gathers no moss", sugerindo uma vida de constante movimento e mudança, mas também uma falta de estabilidade e permanência. A música termina com uma nota de esperança, com o amanhecer de um "new mornin'" e o retorno para casa, talvez simbolizando um recomeço ou uma redenção.

Well, another crazy day
Bem, mais um dia louco
You'll drink the night away
Você vai beber a noite toda
And forget about everything
E esquecer de tudo
This city desert makes you feel so cold
Este deserto de cidade te faz sentir tão frio
It's got so many people, but it's got no soul
Tem tantas pessoas, mas não tem alma
And it's taken you so long
E demorou tanto tempo
To find out you were wrong
Para descobrir que você estava errado
When you thought it held everything
Quando pensou que tinha tudo
You used to think that it was so easy
Você costumava pensar que era tão fácil
You used to say that it was so easy
Você costumava dizer que era tão fácil
But you're trying, you're trying now
Mas você está tentando, está tentando agora
Another year and then you'd be happy
Mais um ano e então você seria feliz
Just one more year and then you'd be happy
Só mais um ano e então você seria feliz
But you're crying, you're crying now
Mas você está chorando, está chorando agora
Way down the street there's a light in his place
Lá no fim da rua há uma luz no lugar dele
He opens the door, he's got that look on his face
Ele abre a porta, tem aquele olhar no rosto
And he asks you where you've been
E ele pergunta onde você esteve
You tell him who you've seen
Você diz a ele quem você viu
And you talk about anything
E fala sobre qualquer coisa
He's got this dream about buying some land
Ele tem esse sonho de comprar uma terra
He's gonna give up the booze and the one-night stands
Ele vai desistir da bebida e das aventuras de uma noite
And then he'll settle down
E então ele vai se estabelecer
In some quiet little town
Em uma pequena cidade tranquila
And forget about everything
E esquecer de tudo
But you know he'll always keep moving
Mas você sabe que ele sempre vai continuar se movendo
You know he's never gonna stop moving
Você sabe que ele nunca vai parar de se mover
'Cause he's rolling, he's the rolling stone
Porque ele está rolando, ele é a pedra que rola
And when you wake up, it's a new morning
E quando você acorda, é uma nova manhã
The sun is shining, it's a new morning
O sol está brilhando, é uma nova manhã
And you're going, you're going home

You'll drink the night away
Beberás la noche entera
And forget about everything
Y olvidarás todo
This city desert makes you feel so cold
Este desierto de ciudad te hace sentir tan frío
It's got so many people, but it's got no soul
Tiene tanta gente, pero no tiene alma
And it's taken you so long
Y te ha llevado tanto tiempo
To find out you were wrong
Descubrir que estabas equivocado
When you thought it held everything
Cuando pensabas que lo tenía todo
You used to think that it was so easy
Solías pensar que era tan fácil
You used to say that it was so easy
Solías decir que era tan fácil
But you're trying, you're trying now
Pero estás intentando, estás intentando ahora
Another year and then you'd be happy
Un año más y serías feliz
Just one more year and then you'd be happy
Solo un año más y serías feliz
But you're crying, you're crying now
Pero estás llorando, estás llorando ahora
Way down the street there's a light in his place
Al final de la calle hay una luz en su lugar
He opens the door, he's got that look on his face
Abre la puerta, tiene esa mirada en su rostro
And he asks you where you've been
Y te pregunta dónde has estado
You tell him who you've seen
Le cuentas a quién has visto
And you talk about anything
Y hablas de cualquier cosa
He's got this dream about buying some land
Tiene este sueño de comprar tierra
He's gonna give up the booze and the one-night stands
Va a renunciar al alcohol y a las aventuras de una noche
And then he'll settle down
Y luego se asentará
In some quiet little town
En un pequeño pueblo tranquilo
And forget about everything
Y olvidará todo
But you know he'll always keep moving
Pero sabes que siempre seguirá moviéndose
You know he's never gonna stop moving
Sabes que nunca va a dejar de moverse
'Cause he's rolling, he's the rolling stone
Porque está rodando, es la piedra rodante
And when you wake up, it's a new morning
Y cuando te despiertas, es una nueva mañana
The sun is shining, it's a new morning
El sol está brillando, es una nueva mañana
And you're going, you're going home
Y te vas, te estás yendo a casa

It's got so many people, but it's got no soul
Il a tellement de gens, mais il n'a pas d'âme
And it's taken you so long
Et cela t'a pris tellement de temps
To find out you were wrong
Pour découvrir que tu avais tort
When you thought it held everything
Quand tu pensais qu'il avait tout
You used to think that it was so easy
Tu pensais que c'était si facile

Juste une année de plus et tu serais heureux
But you're crying, you're crying now

And he asks you where you've been
Et il te demande où tu as été
You tell him who you've seen
Tu lui dis qui tu as vu

He's got this dream about buying some land
Il a ce rêve d'acheter des terres
He's gonna give up the booze and the one-night stands
Il va abandonner l'alcool et les aventures d'un soir
And then he'll settle down
Et puis il va se poser
In some quiet little town
Dans une petite ville tranquille
And forget about everything
Et oublier tout
But you know he'll always keep moving
Mais tu sais qu'il continuera toujours à bouger
You know he's never gonna stop moving
Tu sais qu'il ne va jamais arrêter de bouger
