doble vertiente

Quisiera ser capaz de ralentizar el tiempo, dejarlo en un hilo, un goteo suave donde las notas del contrabajo cayeran con la misma demora y precisión que las gotas de una lluvia interior, una que se viera a través de las ventanas de la casa que Blossom describe con tanta exactitud y tanta sensibilidad, tanta, que uno no sabe si está del lado de lo naïf o del cinismo. El tejado de la casa debe ser de los de a doble vertiente.

I'm discontented
With homes that are rented
So I have invented my own

Darling this place is
A lover's oasis
Where life's weary
Chase is unknown

Far from the cry of the city
Where flowers pretty
Caress the streams

Cozy to hide in
To live side by side in
Don't let it abide in my dreams

Picture me upon your knee
With tea for two, and two for tea
Me for you, and you for me alone

Nobody near us
To see us or hear us
No friends or relations
On weekend vacations

We won't have it known
That we own a telephone

Day will break
And you'll awake
And I will bake
A sugar cake
For you to take
For all the boys to see

We will raise a family
A boy for you and a girl for me
Can't you see
How happy we would be
