Summer of '69 (Acoustic)

I got my first real six string
我在某个便利店
Bought it at the five and dime
买到了人生第一把六弦琴
Played it til my fingers bled
我不停地弹奏 直到手指被磨破
Was the summer of '69
那是69年的夏日
Me and some guys from school
我和几个校友
Had a band and we tried real hard
建了支乐队 每天辛苦练习着
Jimmy quit and Jody got married
后来Jimmy退队 Jody也结了婚
I shoulda known we'd never get far
但我知道 我们从未走远过

但如今 每当我回首过往
But when I look back now
那个夏天 早已定格于记忆中
That summer seemed to last forever
倘若让我再做一次选择
And if I had the choice
我还会走同样的路
Ya, I'd always wanna be there
这些时日 是我人生中 最美好的篇章
Those were the best days of my life
好想再回到 那69年的夏日时光
Back in the summer of-
当你已经选择了这份职务
Ain't no use in complainin'
任何解释都已无济于事
When you got a job to do
我曾整夜驱车徘徊
Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in
就是这时 我遇见了你
And that's when I met you, ya
站在你妈妈家的门廊前

你承诺我 你会永远等待我
Standin' on your mama's porch
那天你牵着我的手
You told me that you'd wait forever
我知道机不可失
Oh, and when you held my hand
这些时日 是我人生中 最美好的篇章
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life
好想再回到 那69年的夏日时光
Oh Yeah!
Back in the summer of '69
我们尽情消磨着时间
Oh Yeah!
那时我们年少轻狂

我想我们应该放松片刻
We were killin' time
我想这世上并无永恒
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
如今时过境迁
I guess nothin' can last forever
只有看着那 世间万物的来去轮回
Forever...
有时我会弹着那把破旧的六弦琴
And now the times are changin'
想知道我们之间 究竟哪里出了问题
Look at everything that's come and gone
那时我站在你妈妈家的门廊前
Sometimes when I play that old six string
你承诺我 你会永远等待我
I think about ya 'n wonder what went wrong
那天你牵着我的手

我知道 这机遇千载难逢
Standin' on your mama's porch
这些时日 是我人生中 最美好的篇章
You told me it would last forever
Oh, the way you held my hand
好想再回到 那69年的夏日时光
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life
Oh yeah
Back in the summer of '69
Oh yeah
