女孩出身於一個木材小鎮
She grew up tall in a timber town
而那裡唯一倒下的不只是樹木
But trees were not the only things that were falling down
微風拂過松樹間，苦樂交加
Breezes thru the pines was blowing bittersweet
散落的報紙被風吹進了街尾
They blew the papers down the dead end street
她輟學不久後，便嫁給了個男孩
She married a boy soon as she got out of school
可惜的是男孩變得既衝動又愚蠢
But he turned out to be a reckless fool
至此女孩無憂無慮的日子，一去不返了
And gone are the days when she was worry free
現在的她是個單親媽媽，才二十三
Now she's a single mom she's only twenty-three
她在做服務員，只是候在桌旁
[02:35.57] And she's waiting tables she's just waiting tables
她認識了很多人
[02:45.71]She's learned a lot about people
大多是她所厭惡的
[02:48.83]More than she ever wanted to know
她只是候在餐桌旁，等待著
[02:53.32][04:03.67]She's just waiting tables waiting tables
等待著能有個去處的好時機
[03:03.48]Biding her time until there's somewhere else to go
忙完一天工作後，女孩算了算當天的小費
Well her working day is done she tallies up her tips
她嘆氣道：上帝啊，天堂一定不用受這些苦
She sighs dear Lord above there must be more than this
這些痛苦終究會成為鏡子裡的回憶
Some-day she'll see this misery in her rear view mirror
在那之前，她必須找到方法渡過難關
But for today she'll find a way to get along right here
她在做服務員，只是候在桌旁
One rainy night a handsome man came in
她認識了很多人
Said he was bound for parts unknown
大多是她所厭惡的
They talked and talkeduntil the moon went down
她只是候在桌旁，等待著
But in the morning he was gone
等待著能有個去處的好時機
[04:20.72]Waiting tables she's just waiting tables
一天雨夜裡，美男子走了進來
Another year or two she'll be moving on
他說要去未知的地方
Holding her own until something better comes along
兩人聊了很久很久，直到月亮都已下班
Biding her time until something better comes along
可早晨醒來時他已經離開了
