Written by：Casting Crowns/Mark Hall

All work no play may have made jack a dull boy
终日劳碌让杰克变得麻木不仁
But all work no god has left jack with a lost soul
但失去信仰更让他灵魂迷失
But he's moving on full steam
可他仍不顾一切向前冲
He's chasing the american dream
追逐着美国梦
And he's gonna give his family the finer things
誓要给家人最好的生活
Not this time son I've no time to waste
这次不行 孩子 我没时间浪费
Maybe tomorrow we'll have time to play
也许明天我们就能一起玩耍
And then he slips into his new bmw
他钻进崭新的宝马座驾
And drives farther and farther and farther away
一路驶向远方 渐行渐远
So he works all day and tries to sleep at night
终日劳碌奔波 夜深才得安眠
He says things will get better
总说境况会好转
Better in time
终将苦尽甘来
'Cause he works and he builds with his own two hands
他亲手筑起梦想高台
And he pours all he has in a castle made with sand
倾尽所有堆砌沙堡华宅
But the wind and the rain are comin' crashing in
奈何风雨交加 摧枯拉朽而来
Time will tell just how long his kingdom stands
时间终将见证 他的王国能屹立多久
His kingdom stands
他的王国屹立着
His american dream is beginning to seem
他的美国梦开始变得
More and more like a nightmare
越来越像一场噩梦
With every passing day
随着每一天流逝
Daddy can you come to my game
爸爸你能来看我比赛吗
Oh baby please don't work late
亲爱的请不要加班
Another wasted weekend
又一个被虚度的周末
And they are slipping away
亲情正悄然流逝
'Cause he works all day and lies awake at night
因他日夜操劳 辗转难眠
He tells them things will get better
总安慰说境况会好转
Just take a little more time
只需再忍耐些时光
'Cause he works and he builds with his own two hands
他亲手筑起梦想高台
And he pours all he has in a castle made with sand
倾尽所有堆砌沙堡华宅
But the wind and the rain are comin' crashing in
奈何风雨交加 摧枯拉朽而来
Time will tell just how long his kingdom stands
时间终将见证 他的王国能屹立多久
His kingdom stands
他的王国屹立着
He used to say who ever dies with the most toys wins
他曾说 拥有最多玩具的人才是赢家
But if he loses his soul what has he gained in the end
但若失去灵魂 最终又能得到什么
I'll take a shack on a rock
我宁愿要岩石上的陋室
Over a castle in the sand
也不要沙砾中的城堡
Now he works all day and cries alone at night
如今他终日劳碌 深夜独自哭泣
It's not getting any better
情况从未好转
Looks like he's running out of time
他似乎已时日无多
'Cause he worked and he built with his own two hands
因他用双手辛勤劳作 筑起家园
And he poured all he had in a castle made with sand
倾尽所有建造的沙堡
But the wind and the rain are coming crashing in
却在风雨中摇摇欲坠
Time will tell just how long his kingdom stands
时间终将见证 他的王国能屹立多久
His kingdom stands
他的王国屹立着
All they really wanted was you
他们真正渴望的 只是你的陪伴
All they really wanted was you
他们真正渴望的 只是你的陪伴
All they really wanted was you
他们真正渴望的 只是你的陪伴
