Father and Son

Father and Son 歌词
儿子,现在无需做出改变
father:
放轻松
It's not time to make a change
你还太年少,这也是你的弱点
Just relax take it easy
你尚未懂得的事太多太多
You're still young that's your fault
你或者可以寻得一位姑娘,互相托付终身
There's so much you have to know
也可以与她携手步入婚姻殿堂
Find a girl settle down
你看,如今我已垂老,却仍心怀喜悦
If you want you can marry
我也曾像你这般青春年少,因此我懂得,
Look at me I am old but I'm happy
要从容面对万物奇妙发展并非易事
I was once like you are now and I know that it's not easy
不过,儿子,凡事三思而后行
To be calm when you've found something going on
思索你所拥有的一切
But take your time think a lot
因为明日你或许依然在原地停留
think of everything you've got
但你的梦想可能不再
For you will still be here tomorrow
我该如何用言语去解释这一切
But your dreams may not
每当我迈出一步,它们却又令我捉摸不住
日复一日
son:
自我发出第一个音节起,就被迫去倾听他人
How can I try to explain
如今已有一条我自己的道路,我必须启程
Cause when I do he turns away again
我知道,我必须启程
It's always been the same same old story
现在无需做出改变
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen
慢慢来
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away
你还太年少,这是你的弱点
I know I have to go
你尚未经历的事也太多太多
你或者可以寻得一位姑娘,互相托付终身
father:
也可以与她携手步入婚姻殿堂
It's not time to make a change
你看
Just sit down take it slowly
如今我已垂老,却仍心怀喜悦
You're still young that's your fault
在那些我为此流过泪的日子里
There's so much you have to go through
我都将自己的心事深埋心底
Find a girl settle down
如鲠在喉的滋味不好受,但对它视而不见则让我更为痛苦
If you want you can marry
如若他们的想法并无过错,我绝不反驳
Look at me
但他们是他们,我是我
I am old but I'm happy
如今我已有了自己的道路
因此,我必须启程离去
son:
我知道,我必须启程
All the times that I cried
Keeping all the things I knew inside
It's hard but it's harder to ignore it
If they were right I'd agree
But it's them they know not me
Now there's a way and I know
that I have to go away
I know I have to go
