Chasing What’s Already Gone - Mary Chapin Carpenter

Chasing What's Already Gone - Mary Chapin Carpenter
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
There's a big white house on a leafy street
绿荫街道上有座大白房子
On a summer's day in 1963
那是1963年的夏日时光
A station wagon's parked in the drive
车道上停着辆旅行车
With dents in the fender and wood on the side
挡泥板凹陷 木质侧板泛黄
There's kids and dogs in instamatic hues
孩子们与狗在宝丽来相片里
Squinting hard in the sun
阳光下眯着眼睛张望
Not just yet but one day too
虽然此刻尚未察觉
They'll be chasing what's already gone
终将追逐那些逝去的过往
You grow up tall and you grow up tough
你长得高大又坚强
Try to never admit not feeling good enough
从不愿承认内心的彷徨
They tell you find your passion then you'll find your way
他们说找到热爱就能找到方向
I'm just trying to make it unscathed through every day
我只求安然度过每一天的时光
And it seems to happen nearly over night
这一切仿佛在一夜之间发生
Life shows you who you've become
生活让你看清自己的模样
When there's no more mystery in the fading light
当暮色中不再有神秘的光
You're just chasing what's already gone
你追逐的不过是逝去的过往
Like the line that spells the far horizon
如同勾勒远方地平的那道线
Moving with you as fast as you can run
随你奔跑的速度不断延伸
Half your life you pay it no attention
半生岁月你对其视若无睹
The rest you can't stop wondering
余下的时光却止不住思量
What you should have done
本该如何抉择
Instead of chasing what's already gone
而非追逐早已消逝的幻影
I saw my father in a dream last night
昨夜梦中得见父亲容颜
He was smiling and saying you're gonna be alright
他含笑低语：一切终将安好
And this morning I stared back at myself
今晨我凝视镜中的自己
Feeling as empty as I've ever felt
感受前所未有的空虚
But I keep on going and I hope I've learned
但我仍继续前行 但愿已领悟
More of what's right than what's wrong
更多正确而非谬误
It's ashes and roses and time that burns
灰烬与玫瑰 时光灼灼燃烧
When you're chasing what's already gone
当你追逐早已消逝的美好
Ashes and roses and hearts that break
灰烬与玫瑰 心碎无声
I tried so hard to be strong
我曾如此努力保持坚强
It may be my worst but not my first mistake
这或许是我最糟 却非初次犯错
Chasing what's already gone
追逐着早已消逝的幻梦
