We were barely eighteen when we crossed collective hearts

I swear when I grow up I wont just buy you a rose

I will buy the flower shop and you will never be lonely
我要為你買下一整個花店，我永遠不會讓你孤獨
For even if the sun stops waking up over the fields

So we moved to Arizona to save our only son

And even though she moved away, we always get calls from our daughter
還有我們的女兒啊，即使她已經搬走了，但常常能接到她的電話
She has eyes just like her fathers, they are blue when skies are gray
她有和爸爸一樣的眼睛，就算天空是灰色，她的眼眸還是晶藍的
And just like him she never stops, never takes the day for granted

You think that I nearly lost you when the doctors tried to take you away

To this day, you swore youd be here till we decide that its our time

But its not time, you never quit in all your life

You come home from work, and you kiss me on the eye

You curse the dogs, you say that I should never feed them what is ours

And the kids are coming home so Ill set the table; you can make the fire
孩子們要回來了，我去佈置餐桌，你去生火吧
