Older

I was walking down 57th street towards Park
我沿着第57大道朝公园走去
With the same old song in my same old heart
在我深沉的心里唱着同样深沉的歌
Making plans I'm gonna do when I get older
计划着我今后的目标
Passed a gray-haired man and I found his eyes
路过一位花白的老人 我发现他的双瞳
It's like he knew my thoughts and he read my mind
似乎能看穿我的一切想法
Saying life is gonna find you when it's supposed to
他说人生将会如你所愿
Felt my feet stop short and I turned my head
突然我停住步伐 转过身去
Tried to lean into every word he said, then he said
他想让我更清楚明白 于是他说
When you are younger, you'll wish your older
小时候时的你 渴望快点长大
Then when you're older, you'll wish for time to turn around
然而长大后 你又渴望回归童真
Don't let your wonder turn into closure
当你长大成人之后
When you get older, when you get older
不要将曾经的渴望沦为绝望
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Have I killed my thoughts right before their prime?
我是否已将美好童真扼杀在了摇篮里
Have I bit my tongue one too many times
我是否屡次食言
Have I said it all the way I really meant to?
我是否一直这样想着
If I wait 'til my tomorrow comes
倘若我静待明日
Is the waiting all I've ever done?
我真的就该这样坐享其成
And will I get to, get to know myself in the place I am
我是否清楚自己的处境
Get to fall in love with another man and understand
爱上一个人并理解对方
When you are younger, you'll wish your older
小时候时的你 渴望快点长大
Then when you're older, you'll wish for time to turn around
然而长大后 你又渴望回归童真
Don't let your wonder turn into closure
当你长大成人时
When you get older, when you get older
不要将曾经的渴望沦为绝望
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
When you are younger, you'll wish your older
小时候时的你 渴望快点长大
Then when you're older, you'll wish for time to turn around
然而长大后 你又渴望回归童真
Don't let your wonder turn into closure
当你长大成人之后
When you get older, when you get older
不要将曾经的渴望沦为绝望
Oh, oh, oh, oh
