My father sits at night with no lights on

His cigarette glows in the dark

The living room is still;
客厅一片寂静
I walk by no remark
我走过，无人言语
I tiptoe past the master bedroom where
我蹑手蹑脚经过主卧室
My mother reads her magazines

I hear her call sweet dreams
我听到她轻声说“好梦”
But I forgot how to dream
但我已忘记了如何做梦
But you say it's time we moved in together
但你说我们是时候住在一起了
Raised a family of our own you and me
建立一个属于我们自己的家庭 你和我
Well that's the way it should be
嗯 那应该是理所当然的
You want to marry me
你想和我结婚
My friends from college
我那些大学的朋友们
They're all married now;
他们现在都结婚了；
They have their houses and their lawns
他们有了自己的房子和草坪
They have their silent noons
他们拥有沉默的午后
Tearful nights angry dawns
泪水的夜晚 愤怒的黎明
Their children hate them

For the things they're not

And yet they drink they laugh

Close the wound hide the scar

Babe - all I know is what I see

The couples cling and claw

And drown in love's debris

You say we'll soar like two birds

Through the clouds

By myself
