Im going to rent myself a house我打算给自己租个房子
In the shade of the freeway就在高速公路旁
Im going to pack my lunch in the morning我会每天早晨准备好中餐
And go to work each day按时上班
And when the evening rolls around而当夜晚来临
Ill go on home and lay my body down我回到家里,躺在床上
And when the morning light comes streaming in当早晨的阳光亲吻我
Ill get up and do it again我就起床,重复我的生活
Amen阿门
Say it again再说一遍
Amen阿门
I want to know what became of the changes我想知道世界会变成什么样子
We waited for love to bring我们将等待爱情
Were they only the fitful dreams他们只是一场普通的梦吗
Of some greater awakening或许更容易 醒来
Ive been aware of the time going by我已意识到该离开了
They say in the end its the wink of an eye他们说,在结束了它的眼睛眨
And when the morning light comes streaming in当晨光来分流
Youll get up and do it againyoull起床做一遍
Amen阿门
Caught between the longing for love夹在渴望爱情
And the struggle for the legal tender而奋斗的法定货币
Where the sirens sing and the church bells ring当汽笛声和教堂钟声环
And the junk man pounds his fender他和帆船男子磅垫
Where the veterans dream of the fight凡老兵梦想扑灭
Fast asleep at the traffic light快睡在红绿灯
And the children solemnly wait和孩子郑重等待
For the ice cream vendor卖主为冰淇淋
Out into the cool of the evening到了傍晚的清凉
Strolls the pretender游玩的扮
He knows that all his hopes and dreams他知道,他所有的希望和梦想
Begin and end there开始和结束
Ah the laughter of the lovers笑声中的恋人啊
As they run through the night作为贯穿夜
Leaving nothing for the others别人大惑不解
But to choose off and fight但是选择过海疆
And tear at the world with all their might在世界和催泪拼搏
While the ships bearing their dreams而关船梦
Sail out of sight穿过无际
Im going to find myself a girl肠去寻找自己的女孩
Who can show me what laughter means谁可以让我笑意味着什么
And well fill in the missing colors并填写好色彩失踪
In each others paint-by-number dreams别油漆逐梦人数
And then well put out dark glasses on好墨镜,然后就熄灭
And well make love until our strength is gone直到我们的实力和良好做爱消失
And when the morning light comes streaming in当晨光来分流
Well get up and do it again好起床做一遍
Get it up again得到回升
Im going to be a happy idiot肠做一个快乐傻瓜
And struggle for the legal tender而奋斗的法定货币
Where the ads take aim and lay their claim凡广告瞄准奠定其债权
To the heart and the soul of the spender到心脏和灵魂的豪客
And believe in whatever may lie并相信无论说谎
In those things that money can buy在金钱可以买到的东西
Thought true love could have been a contender本来以为真正的爱情竞争者
Are you there?你有吗?
Say a prayer for the pretender说扮的祈祷
Who started out so young and strong起家以年青力壮
Only to surrender只有投降
