If I die young bury me in satin
若我英年早逝 请以绸缎将我埋葬
Lay me down on a bed of roses
卧躺在铺满玫瑰的床上
Sink me in the river at dawn

Oh oh oh oh
Lord make me a rainbow I'll shine down on my mother

She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors oh and
站在虹光之下 她会知道 与你同在时我不再危险
Life ain't always what you think it ought to be no
人生总是不如你期盼得那般
Ain't even grey but she buries her baby
