Summer Child

You see all the flowers in the weeds
你於種子之間望見了所有花朵
You're scared of the dark when you sleep
於你入睡之際你恐懼黑暗
You cover up your arms with your sleeves
你將手臂裹進袖套
Even in hundred degree heat
哪怕是百度高溫

Your father was awfully mean
你父親曾是那般挑刻薄
Your favorite color is green
你最愛的顏色是綠
It reminds of you of the summer you turned three
這使我想起你三歲那年的夏日
Running through sprinklers on your street
揮霍著那街頭的灑水器

And you laugh and you dance in the wind
而你大笑而又風中起舞
And you sway and you hug and you kiss
你盡情擺動擁之入懷而又親吻
But there's darkness behind those eyes
可那雙眼後隱匿著世間黑暗
Even when you smile
哪怕當你微笑

Oh, summer child
夏日孩童
You don't have to act like all you feel is mild
你不必裝作懵懂
You don' t really love the sun, it drives you wild
你並不是真的愛太陽它使你狂野
You're lying, summer child
你在撒謊夏日孩童

Aren't you way too busy taking care of everybody to take care of yourself?
你是不是忙於照顧每個人而未有照顧好自己
When the sun goes missing, aren't the flowers just as pretty ?
當太陽消失時花朵不也一樣漂亮嗎
Aren't the oceans just as deep?
海洋不也一樣深嗎
The trees as green?
綠樹成蔭
And as for me
至於我
I'll watch you weep
我會看著你哭泣

Oh, summer child
夏日孩童
You don't have to act like all you feel is mild
你不必表現得像你所感受到的一切都是溫和的
You don't really love the sun, it drives you wild
你並不是真的愛太陽它讓你狂野
You're lying, summer child
你在撒謊夏天的孩子
