A lonely mother gazing

Out of her window
看着窗外
Staring at a son
盯着那个
That she just can't touch

If at any time he's in a jam
无论何时 他陷入困境
She'll be by his side
她都会陪在他身边
But he doesn't realize
但他却没意识到
He hurts her so much
他伤她的心有多深
But all the praying
所有的祈祷
Just ain't helping at all
都无济于事
'Cause he can't seem
他总是
To keep his self out of trouble

So he goes out
所以他离开家
And he makes his money
开始在外谋生
The best way he knows how

Another body laying cold in the gutter
但他不知道有多少人在外漂泊 穷困潦倒
Don't go chasing waterfalls
别好高骛远 追求不切实际的东西
Please stick to the rivers
请脚踏实地
And the lakes that you're used to
珍惜已拥有的幸福
I know that you're gonna have it
我知道追逐总会有结果
Your way or nothing at all
要么凯旋而归 要么一败涂地
But I think you're moving too fast
但我想 你太过于急功近利
Little precious has a natural obsession
她的小心肝儿被他看不到的诱惑迷惑着
For temptation but he just can't see
而他不知道
She gives him loving

That his body can't handle
远胜所有
But all he can say is
但他却只说
"Baby it's good to me "
宝贝儿 这样的生活才适合我
One day he goes
如果有一天
And takes a glimpse in the mirror
他看着镜中的自己
But he doesn't recognize his own face
他会发现一张陌生的脸
His health is fading

And he doesn't know why

Three letters took him

To his final resting place
只有那阴冷的安息之所
I told him
