Lyrics by:Sam Beam
Composed by:Sam Beam
There are times that walk from you
有些时光悄然离你远去
Like some passing afternoon
如同某个转瞬即逝的午后
Summer warmed the open window of her honeymoon
夏日暖阳轻抚她蜜月期的窗棂
And she chose a yard to burn
她择一方庭院点燃篝火
But the ground remembers her
而大地仍镌刻她的印记
Wooden spoons her children stir her Bougainvillea blooms
木勺搅动九重葛花丛 孩子们的笑声犹在耳畔
There are things that drift away
总有些事物渐行渐远
Like our endless numbered days
似我们数不尽的流年
Autumn blew the quilt right off the perfect bed she made
秋风掀开了她精心铺就的床榻被褥
And she's chosen to believe
而她选择继续相信
In the hymns her mother sings
母亲轻吟的赞美诗篇
Sunday pulls it's children from their piles of fallen leaves
主日将孩子们从落叶堆中轻轻唤起
There are sailing ships that pass
航行的船只经过
All our bodies in the grass
我们躺在芳草萋萋间
Springtime calls her children 'til she let's them go at last
春日的召唤萦绕耳畔 直到她最终放手
And she's chosen where to be
而她已选定归宿
Though she's lost her wedding ring
尽管她遗失了婚戒
Somewhere near her misplaced jar of Bougainvillea seeds
在那散落的九重葛花种旁
There are things we can't recall
有些往事已随风飘散
Blind as night that finds us all
如夜色笼罩般无从寻觅
Winter tucks her children in her fragile China dolls
冬日将她的瓷娃娃轻轻裹入襁褓
But my hands remember hers
但我的掌心仍记得她
Rolling 'round the shaded ferns
在蕨类阴影间流转的温存
Naked arms her secrets still like songs I'd never learned
赤裸双臂藏着的私语 像永远陌生的歌谣
There are names across the sea
彼岸有人名姓已泛黄
Only now I do believe
此刻我才真正懂得守望
Sometimes with the windows closed she'll sit and think of me
她偶尔关窗独坐 任思念漫过时光
But she'll mend his tattered clothes
却仍为他缝补旧裳
And they'll kiss as if they know
相拥时仿佛早已预见沧桑
A baby sleeps in all our bones so scared to be alone
每具躯壳里都蜷缩着婴孩 惧怕孤独的模样
