If We Have Each Other

She was 19 with a baby on the way
她那時19歲孩子即將出生
On the east-side of the city she was working every day
在城東沒日沒夜地干活
Cleaning dishes in the evening she could barely stay awake
晚上刷碗她幾乎昏昏欲睡
She was clinging to the feeling that her luck was going to change
她堅信她總有一天會熬出頭
And, across town shed take the bus at night to a one bedroom apartment
深夜她坐著巴士穿過小鎮回到她的單間
And then shed turn on the light
把燈點著後
She would sit down at the table

Tell herself that its alright

Shed never be alone
她永遠都不會孑然一身
Have someone to hold

And when nights were cold shed say

多虧她我熬過了艱難的高中時光
When high school wasnt easy, shes the reason I survived
我知道她永遠都不會拋棄我
