Sting - Practical Arrangement [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Am I asking for the moon?
Is it really so implausible?
That you and I could soon
Come to some kind of arrangement?
I'm not asking for the moon
I've always been a realist
When it's really nothing more
Than a simple rearrangement

[Chorus]
With one roof above our heads
A warm house to return to
We could start with separate beds
I could sleep alone or learn to
I'm not suggesting that we'd find
Some earthly paradise forever
I mean how often does that happen now
The answer's probably never
But we could come to an arrangement
A practical arrangement
And you could learn to love me
Given time

[Verse 2]
I'm not promising the moon
I'm not promising a rainbow
Just a practical solution
To a solitary life
I'd be a father to your boy
A shoulder you could lean on
How bad could it be
To be my wife?

[Chorus]

[Outro]
It may not be the romance
That you had in mind
But you could learn to love me
Given time
