House By The Creek 歌词
Mama lies on the couch in her old wedding gown
妈妈穿着她旧旧的结婚礼服躺在沙发上
She turned pale long before the carnival had left town
早在小镇狂欢结束前她就已苍白无力
She stares at the front porch on the outlook for dad
她远远地地眺望前廊等着爸爸
Don't worry, I'll be back in a week is the last thing he said
“别担心,我下周就会回来了”是爸爸最后说的话
We all knew he gambled in the city and lost
我们都知道他在城里赌博输得精光
Money we didn't have must've be the line that he crossed
我们没有的那些钱一定都成为他的赌资了
It's been over a year instead of a week
说什么一周,一年都过去了
Here in our house, our house by the creek
在我们的小屋里,我们那溪边的小屋
Me and my family live in the Netherlands
我和我的家人生活在荷兰
In the house that he build with his bare hands
生活在那座他亲手建起来的小屋里
My younger brother Jimmy is playing outside
我的弟弟吉米正在外面玩耍
With his cap gun he tries to shoot planes from the sky
他试图用他的玩具手枪击落空中的飞机
In his chair by the window sits uncle Fred
弗雷德叔叔坐在他窗边的椅子上
Since he's back from the war there ain't a word he has said
从战争里归来后他就一言不发
And Freckles my sister as she passed away sir
而当我的妹妹弗莱克莉斯逝世时...
Sometimes in my dreams I catch up with dad and with her
有时在梦中我追上了爸爸追上了她
What we end up with is not what we seek
我们最终得到的却都不是我们追寻的
Here in our house, our house by the creek
在我们的小屋里,我们那溪边的小屋里
My name is Louis, it's Louis, all right
我的名字是路易斯,是路易斯,好吧
I play dad's old accordion all day and all night
我没日没夜地弹着爸爸的手风琴
I just turned eleven, so I'm still a kid
我刚过十一岁,所以我仍是个孩子
But when I grow up I wanna find out what daddy did
但等我长大我想弄明白爸爸到底干嘛去了
Mister believe me, I was thought not to cry
先生啊相信我,我也曾想过忍住不哭
And that family should stay together 'till the day that you die
以为家人就是该呆在一起直到离开人世
Yeah mister believe me, I was thought boys don't cry
真的啊先生相信我,我也想过男孩不能哭
And that the town where you're born is the town where youll die
以为人就是该落叶归根
That the town where you're born is where youll probably die
以为人大概就是会死在出生的地方
What did God wanna show when He created man weak
上帝创造人类的软弱是想展示些什么呢
We don't understand in our house by the creek
我们在溪边的小屋里百思不得其解
