Skating on Thin Ice - Procol Harum

You were the player

And you played it cool

I was the stranger

And I played the fool

You were the teacher

And you were the best

I was the seeker

And I failed the test

We were always skating on thin ice

Shaking the wrong dice

Swimming against the tide

Playing on the wrong side

Yes you were the player

And you were so cool

I was the greenhorn

King of the fools

Painting the picture

To fit with the frame

Changing the players

To fit with the game

You were the searcher

Out for the sky

I was the traveller

Just passing by

You were the taker

And you gave the call

I was the faker

And I dropped the ball

eras el jugador

Y lo hiciste genial

yo era el extraño

Y me hice el tonto

tu eras el maestro

Y tu eras el mejor

yo era el buscador

Y fallé la prueba

Siempre estábamos patinando sobre hielo delgado

Sacudiendo los dados equivocados

Nadar contra la corriente

Jugar en el lado equivocado

Sí, eras el jugador.

Y eras tan genial

yo era el novato

Rey de los tontos

pintando el cuadro

Para encajar con el marco

Cambiando los jugadores

Para encajar con el juego

eras el buscador

por el cielo

yo era el viajero

solo de paso

tu eras el tomador

Y diste la llamada

yo era el farsante

Y se me cayó la pelota
