Yesterday when I was young
昨日年少轻狂时
The taste of life was sweet
生活如蜜甜入喉
Like rain upon my tongue
似清雨润舌尖
I teased at life as if
戏谑人生如儿戏
It were a foolish game
视若愚人博弈
The way an evening breeze
恰似晚风恣意
May tease a candle flame
撩拨烛焰摇曳
The thousand dreams I dreamed
万千绮梦曾入怀
The splendid things I planned
我曾精心编织的梦想
I always built to last
总以为能永恒不变
On weak and shifting sand
却筑在流沙之上
I lived by night and shunned
我沉溺夜色逃避
The naked light of day
白昼刺眼的光芒
And only now I see
直到此刻才惊觉
How the years have ran away
岁月已悄然流逝
Yesterday when I was young
昨日年少轻狂时
There were so many songs
曾有无数旋律待我吟唱
That waited to be sung
待谱写的歌谣堆积成行
So many wild pleasures
年少轻狂的欢愉肆意生长
Lay in store for me
在前路静候我的造访
And so much pain
而太多痛楚
My dazzled eyes refused to see
被迷醉双眼刻意遗忘
I ran so fast that time
我追逐时光纵情奔跑
And youth at last ran out
直到青春散场
I never stopped to think
我从未停下思考
What life was all about
生命的意义何在
And every conversation
如今能记起的每段对话
That I can now recall
都只围绕我自己
Concerns itself with me
从不顾及其他
And nothing else at all
完全以我为中心
Yesterday the moon was blue
昨日 月亮泛着忧郁的蓝
And every crazy day
每个疯狂的日子
Brought something new to do
带来新鲜尝试
And I used my magic age
我挥霍着青春年华
As if it were a wand
仿佛它是根魔法棒
And never saw the waste
从未看见虚度光阴
And emptiness beyond
和背后的空虚荒芜
The game of love I played
我玩着爱情游戏
With arrogance and pride
带着傲慢与自负
And every flame I lit
每段情缘都被我点燃
So quickly quickly died
转瞬即逝 匆匆凋零
The friends I made all seemed
曾经结交的挚友
Somehow to drift away
都悄然飘散远去
And only I am left
唯留我孑然一身
On stage to end the play
在舞台独奏终章
Yesterday when I was young
昨日年少轻狂时
There were so many songs
曾有无数旋律待我吟唱
That waited to be sung
待谱写的歌谣堆积成行
So many wild pleasures
年少轻狂的欢愉肆意生长
Lay in store for me
在前路静候我的造访
And so much pain
而太多痛楚
My dazzled eyes refused to see
被迷醉双眼刻意遗忘
There are so many songs in me
心中多少未唱的歌
That won't be sung
终将沉寂
I feel the bitter taste
苦涩的泪水
Of tears upon my tongue
此刻在舌尖蔓延
And The time has come for me
如今时光已至
To pay for yesterday
为昨日付出代价
When I was young
年少轻狂时
