When It's My Time

Rodney Atkins

歌词

I was late for work, had to pull to the side

我上班迟到了，只好靠边停车

While a funeral train of cars drove by with their lights on

送葬车开着车灯，驶过我身旁

It was just my luck, it went on and on for miles

这只是侥幸，葬车继续行驶了几公里

I kept checkin' my watch, grittin' my teeth

我咬紧牙关，计算着我仅剩的时间

Then suddenly it dawned on me that whoever this is

然后我突然明白了，不管是谁

Is gonna be missed for a long, long time

漫漫岁月，人们最终会走向此刻

It got me thinking

这让我思考

When it's my time to go, the end of my road

当我必须离开，到了我路的尽头

I hope it looks like this200 cars stretched out as far as the hearts

我希望这样，200辆车一望无际延伸到我心里

I touched while

感动的同时

I livedAnd

我深有感触

I hope I leave half as much love behind when it's my time

当我离去，我希望能带走一些爱

So I followed that last car down to the church

所以我跟着那辆驶向教堂的车

Took off my ball cap, tucked in my shirt

我摘下鸭舌帽，塞进我的衬衫里

I just had to see what kind of life could cause such as traffic jam

我只是想看看什么样的人生才会导致这样的交通堵塞

Heard story after story, people laugh, people cry

人们不断交谈哭着笑着

It didn't take long to understand why every pew was full

没过多久，我就知道了为什么每个座位都坐满了人

There's a lot of good souls made better for knowing him

有很多人因为认识他而变得更好

And now I'm one of them

现在我加入了他们

When it's my time to go, the end of my road

当我必须离开，到了我路的尽头

I hope it looks like this200 cars stretched out as far as the hearts

我希望这样，200辆车一望无际延伸到我心里

I touched while

感动的同时

I livedAnd

我深有感触

I hope I leave half as much love behind when it's my time

当我离去，我希望能带走一些爱

Felt a hand on my back, turned around, someone asked"Did you know him well?"

感到有一只手搭在我的背部，转过身，有人问:“你了解他吗?”

And I said, "Yeah, well enough to know"

我说，“是的，我很了解”

When it's my time to go, the end of my road

当我必须离开，到了我路的尽头

I hope it looks like this200 cars stretched out as far as the hearts

我希望这样，200辆车一望无际延伸到我心里

I hope I leave half as much love behind when it's my time

Ooh, when it's my time

当我离去之时
