- The Obvious Child
I'm accustomed to a smooth ride
總是習慣於一帆風順
Or maybe i'm a dog who's lost its bite
或許我是一隻沒有野性的狗吧
I don't expect to be treated like a fool no more
我不想再被當傻子耍了
I don't expect to sleep through the night
我也不指望能整夜安睡
Some people say a lie's a lie's a lie
有人說，你撒謊，你撒謊，你撒謊~
But i say why
可我反問道
Why deny the obvious child?
為什麼要為難這個尋常孩子呢
Why deny the obvious child?
為什麼要為難這個尋常孩子呢
And in remembering a road sign
在回憶一個路標時
I am remembering a girl when i was young
我想起了我年輕時遇到的一個姑娘
And we said these songs are true
那時我們總說，歌裡唱的都是真的
These days are ours
過去的日子是屬於我們的
These tears are free And hey
流過的眼淚都無所謂，還有
The cross is in the ballpark
重擔一直在肩上
The cross is in the ballpark
重擔一直在肩上
We had a lot of fun
我們有過許多歡樂
We had a lot of money
我們有過許多財富
We had a little son and we thought we'd call him sonny
我們有個兒子，我們想把他的名字取作桑尼
Sonny gets married and moves away
桑尼結婚搬走了
Sonny has a baby and bills to pay
桑尼有了孩子，要養家糊口
Sonny gets sunnier
桑尼一天比一天快樂了
Day by day by day by day
一天又一天
。 。 。 。 。
I've been waking up at sunrise
我常常在日出時醒來
I've been following the light across my room
我常常循著光亮走過房間
I watch the night receive the room of my day
我靜觀黑夜收納白晝
Some people say the sky is just the sky
有人說，天空只是天空
But i say
可我反問道
Why deny the obvious child?
為什麼要為難這個尋常孩子呢
Why deny the obvious child?
為什麼要為難這個尋常孩子呢
Sonny sits by his window and thinks to himself
桑尼坐到窗戶旁，沉思道
How it's strange that some rooms are like cages
好奇怪，有些房間就像籠子一樣
Sonny's yearbook from high school
桑尼的高中紀念冊
Is down from the shelf
從書架上掉了下來
And he idly thumbs through the pages
於是他隨便翻著看了看
Some have died
有人已經死了
Some have fled from themselves
有人失去了初心
Or struggled from here to get there
還有人四處奔波求生
Sonny wanders beyond his interior walls
桑尼徘徊到了另一邊
Runs his hand through his thinning brown hair
用手捋著他稀疏的棕色頭髮
Well i'm accustomed to a smoother ride
嗯，我習慣於一帆風順
Maybe i'm a dog that's lost his bite
或許我是一隻沒有野性的狗吧
I don't expect to be treated like a fool no more
我不想再被當傻子耍了
I don't expect to sleep the night
我也不指望能整夜安睡
Some people say a lie is just a lie
有人說，你撒謊
But i say the cross is in the ballpark
可我說，重擔一直在肩上
Why deny the obvious child?
為什麼要為難這個尋常孩子呢
