When It’s My Time - Rodney Atkins

When It's My Time - Rodney Atkins

I was late for work had to pull to the side
再怎么努力也为时已晚 还是停下来歇歇吧
While a funeral train of cars drove by with their lights on
送葬车打开车灯 驶过我身旁
It was just my luck
这只是侥幸
It went on and on for miles
葬车继续行驶了几公里
I kept checkin' my watch grittin' my teeth
我咬紧牙关 计算着我仅剩的时间
Then suddenly it dawned on me that whoever this is
这结束的时刻突然到来
Is gonna be missed for a long long time
漫漫岁月 人们最终会走向此刻
It got me thinking
我开始思索
When it's my time to go
当我必须离开
The end of my road I hope it looks like this
我希望我可以以这种方式结束
200 cars stretched out as far as the hearts
200辆车连成一片 一望无际 我的心也是如此
I touched while I lived
当我还未离去时 我深有感触
And I hope I leave half as much love behind
当我离去
When it's my time
我希望能带走一些爱
So I followed that last car down to the church
所以我紧跟那辆驶向教堂的车
Took off my ball cap tucked in my shirt
我摘下鸭舌帽 藏进短袖中
I just had to see what kind of life could
我必须要看看生活会是什么样
Cause such as traffic jam
这条路水泄不通
Heard story after story people laugh people cry
人们不断交谈 哭着笑着
It didn't take long to understand why every pew was full
当我到达教堂 发现座无虚席
There's a lot of good souls made better for knowing him
这里有许多好人 对他甚是了解
And now I'm one of them
现在我加入了他们
When it's my time to go
当我必须离开
The end of my road I hope it looks like this
我希望我可以以这种方式结束
200 cars stretched out as far as the hearts
200辆车连成一片 我的心也是如此
I touched while I lived
当我还未离去时 我深有感触
And I hope I leave half as much love behind
当我离去
When it's my time
我希望能带走一些爱
Felt a hand on my back
有人轻拍我的后背
Turned around someone asked
我转身 他问我
Did you know him well
我是否对他熟悉
And I said yeah well enough to know
我回答是
When it's my time to go
当我必须离开
The end of my road I hope it looks like this
我希望我可以以这种方式结束
200 cars stretched out as far as the hearts
200辆车连成一片 我的心也是如此
I touched while I lived
当我还未离去时 我深有感触
And I hope I leave half as much love behind
当我离去
When it's my time
我希望能带走一些爱
Ooh when it's my time
当我离去之时
