The Long Road (Acoustic) - Passenger
Written by:Michael Rosenberg
We've walked the long road and you've worn it well
漫漫长路 我们一路走来 你已疲惫不堪
You stitched yourself up when you fell
当深陷其中 你就要独自承担一切
Keep your memories in jars
封存你的记忆
Carry secrets in scars
用你坚强的外表
Beneath your shell
掩藏内心深处的伤痛
You've seen some good days and some bad ones too
美好与悲伤的日子你都经历过
You weave through fashion and trend
你穿梭在时尚潮流之中
You've seen a sun rise on an ocean blue
海上日出 让你心旷神怡
You've seen it set for the dearest of friends
夕阳西下 让你回忆起最亲爱的朋友
You found faith but you chose to doubt it
你找到了信仰 但你选择去怀疑它
You found love but you left without it
你收获了爱情但却离开远去
And you don't want to talk about it
你不想谈论它
You traveled down through foreign lands
你曾环游世界
Touched mountain tops and golden sand
攀上巍峨的高山 沉醉在金黄的沙滩
Seen pyramids and temples made of stone
领略金字塔和石庙的神秘
Keep seashells in a cashmere scarf
把捡来的贝壳放进羊绒围巾里
A treasured book of photographs
多么珍贵的集锦
In every single one you stand alone
每到一个地方 你都是独自一人
You've seen Vienna and the Berlin wall
你目视着维也纳和柏林墙
As you watched the decades fall
仿佛看到了流逝的那些岁月
The letters that you wrote never made it home
你写的信从未寄回到家里
Your birthdays flew past like June
一年一年 你的生日总是匆匆而过 就像六月 眨眼即逝
With Christmas days in hotel rooms
圣诞节也是在旅馆里度过的
And new years eve with people you don't know
你和陌生人一起欢度新年
You built friendships but they sailed without you
你收获了友谊 但是他们却都离你而去
You never meant it and that's why they doubt you
你从未那样想过 那就是为何他们会怀疑你
They don't ever talk about you
他们从来没有谈论过你
You're older than you used to be
你比过去苍老了许多
The mirror weaves a tapestry
活力不似当年
Of lines that dance and shimmer 'round your eyes
脚步不再轻盈 目光无神
You stare back at a man forever holding out his hand
你回望那人 他一直伸着手
As if the answer's going to fall out of the sky
好像就要收到天空的回应
But the penny never dropped
但事与愿违
And no man has ever stopped time from flying by
没有一个人可以阻止时光流逝
