What You Are - Jewel
I'm driving around town
我开车在小镇周围闲逛
Kinda bored with the windows rolled down
See a girl on the bus stop bench
有些无聊，摇下了车窗
Dressed to draw attention
看见一个女孩坐在公交车站的长椅上
Hoping everyone will stare
穿得很闪闪亮亮
If she don't stand out she thinks she'll disappear
Wish I could hold her tell her show her
希望让大家都能够盯着她望
What she wants is already there
A star is a star
她想，如果她不够醒目的话，她就会隐没在人海之中
It doesn't have to try to shine
我多想陪在她身边，告诉她，给她讲
Water will fall
她梦想着要实现的其实已经实现了
A bird just knows how to fly
You don't have to tell a flower how to bloom
因为星星就是星星
Or light how to fill up a room
You already are what you are
它并不需要努力去闪闪发亮
And what you are is beautiful
Heard a story the other day
水自然会向下流
Took place at the local VA
A father talking to his dying son
一只小鸟就自然会知道它该怎样展翅飞翔
This was his conversation
"It's not supposed to be like this
其实你不需要告诉一朵花怎样盛开
You can't go first I can't handle it"
或者告诉光明该怎样把整个屋子点亮
The boy said "Dad now don't you cry
Remember when I was a child what you used to tell me when I'd ask why "
因为你，已经是你自己了
(You'd say) Gravity is gravity
It doesn't try to pull you down
而且，你自己，是美丽的
Stone is stone
It can't help but hold its ground
那天听了一个故事
The wind just blows though you can't see
它就发生在弗吉尼亚州
It's everywhere like I'll always be
You already are what you are
一个父亲对着自己临死的儿子哭诉
And what you are is strong enough
Look in the mirror
这是他们的谈话
Now that's another story to tell
I give love to others
怎么会是这样呀
But I give myself hell
你怎能提前离我而去呢，我无法承受这一切
I'd have to tell myself
孩子却说：爸爸，现在不必为我哭泣
"In every scene there's a perfect plan"
您可曾记得我童年时，我问为什么的时候，您是如何回答的吗？
Everything I hoped to be
I already am
您告诉我说：地心引力，就是地心引力
A flower is a flower
它并不想拉你下来
It doesn't have to try to bloom
And light is light
石头就只是石头
Just knows how to fill a room
And dark is dark
它看起来没什么用，但是却支撑起了整块陆地
So the stars have a place to shine
The tide goes out
风其实一直在吹，尽管我们看不见
So it can come back another time
Goodbye makes a love so sweet
风其实无处不在，就像我们要永远作好我们自己一样永恒
And love is love so it can teach us
因为你，已经是你自己了
We already are what we are
And what we are is beautiful
而且，你自己，是很坚强的
And strong enough
And good enough
望着镜中的自己
And bright enough
