Travelin' Soldier

Two days past eighteen
18歲剛過兩天
He was waitin' for the bus in his army greens
他穿著綠色軍裝等待汽車
Sat down in a booth at a café there
在一個露天的咖啡廳坐下
Gave his order to the girl with a bow in her hair
向一個戴著蝴蝶結的女孩點餐
He's a little shy so she gave him a smile
她衝著害羞的男孩微笑
And he said would you mind sittin' down for a while
男孩說你介意坐下一會兒
And talkin' to me I'm feelin' a little low
陪我聊聊天嗎因為我有點情緒低落

她說我有一小時休息時間
She said I'm off in an hour
我知道我們可以去哪裡坐坐
And I know where we can go
他們一起坐在碼頭上

他說我打賭你有男友但是我不會在乎
So they went down and they sat on the pier
無人與我寫信來往
He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care
你是否介意我與你書信交往？
I've got no one to send a letter to
我哭了

我從未拉過其它男孩的手
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you?
大家說他還太年輕
I cried
等待遠征戰士的愛
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
我們的愛情將永不消逝
Too young for him they told her
等待遠征戰士的回歸
Waitin' for the love of the travelin' soldier
不會再與寂寞相伴
Our love will never end
當信上說戰士即將凱旋
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
不斷發來信件
Never more to be alone
從軍營中
When the letter says a soldier's coming home
從加州到越南

他向她傾訴衷腸
So the letters came
表達愛意
From an army camp
他說戰爭的一切令他十分恐懼
In California then Vietnam
每當那裡情況嚴峻的時候
And he told his heart
我都會想起那日碼頭共坐
It might be love
我閉上雙眼就能回憶起你那甜美微笑
And all of the things he was so scared of
不要擔心即使我有時不能寫信
Said when it's gettin kinda tough over here
即使我有時不能寫信

我哭了
I think about that day sittin' down at the pier
我從未拉過其它男孩的手
Andclose my eyes and see your pretty smile
大家說他還太年輕

等待遠征戰士的愛
Don't worry
我們的愛情將永不消逝
But I won't be able to write for a while
等待遠征戰士的回歸
I cried
不會再與寂寞相伴
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
當信上說戰士即將凱旋
Too young for him they told her
在一個星期五晚的足球賽上
Waitin' for the love of the travelin' soldier
聖歌伴隨著領主的祈禱
Our love will never end
一個人說同胞們請低下頭去
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
為了哀悼我們的同鄉死於越南
Never more to be alone
看台下面傷心哭泣的
When the letter says a soldier's coming home
是行進樂隊的短笛手

沒有人真正在意一個死者的姓名
One Friday night at a football game
除了那頭戴蝴蝶結年輕美麗的姑娘
The Lord's Prayer said and the anthem sang
我哭了
A man said folks would you bow your heads
我從未拉過其它男孩的手
For the list of local Vietnam dead
大家說他還太年輕

等待遠征戰士的愛
Cryin' all alone under the stands
我們的愛情將永不消逝
Was the piccolo player in the marching band
等待遠征戰士的回歸
And one name read and no one really cared
不會再與寂寞相伴
but a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair
當信上說戰士即將凱旋
I cried
我哭了
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
我從未拉過其它男孩的手
Too young for him they told her
大家說他還太年輕
Waitin' for the love of the travelin' soldier
等待遠征戰士的愛
Our love will never end
我們的愛情將永不消逝
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
等待遠征戰士的回歸
Never more to be alone
不會再與寂寞相伴
When the letter says a soldier's coming home
當信上說戰士即將凱旋
I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of the travelin' soldier
Our love will never end
