We had an apartment in the city

We lost davy in the korean war

For don't matter anymore
这些已不再重要
You know that old trees just grow stronger
老树只会愈发坚韧
And old rivers grow wilder every day
河流日渐奔流不息
Old people just grow lonesome
老人们却愈发孤独
Waiting for someone to say hello in there hello
等待有人向他们问好
Me and Loretta we don't talk much more

She sits and stares through the back door screen

And all the news just repeats itself

Like some forgotten dream that we've both seen

We worked together at the factory

What could I say if he asks what's new

Nothing what's with you nothing much to do

You know that old trees just grow stronger
老树只会愈发坚韧
And old rivers grow wilder every day
河流日渐奔流不息
Old people just grow lonesome
老人们却愈发孤独
Waiting for someone to say hello in there hello
等待有人向他们问好
So if you're walking down the street sometime
若你某日漫步街头
Spot some hollow ancient eyes
遇见那双空洞苍老的眼眸
Please don't just pass 'em by and stare
请别只是漠然走过
As if you didn't care
装作视而不见
Say hello in there hello
请问候一声 道句你好
