歌词
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
为了打发无聊的一天
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way
随意地浪费那么多时间
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
漫无目的地在家乡闲逛
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
空等别人来告诉你路在何方
厌倦了躺在太阳底下，厌倦了躲在家中看雨
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
你还年轻，生活的路还很长，今天又无所事事了
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
突然有一天，你发现十年已经过去
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
没人告诉你应该何时起跑，你早已错过了发令枪
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
所以你跑啊跑，想追上太阳，可惜它已经开始下落
它在和你赛跑，从你后面又升了起来
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking
太阳还是一样朝着原来的方向，但你却已经变老
And racing around to come up behind you again
呼吸急促了，离死亡又近了一天
The sun is the same in the relative way, but you're older
年复一年，变得越来越短，总觉得找不到时间了
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
计划最后总是要变成零，或是变成那草草的半页纸
像一个英国人一样，悬于安静的绝望中
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
时光流逝了，歌声也结束了，但总觉得自己还有话想说...
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
回家，又回家
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
我希望可以在这里 （家里）
The time is gone the song is over, thought I'd something more to say
当我逐渐冰冷疲惫
还是在火堆旁温暖我的身体更好吧
Home, home again
远处，越过田野的远处
I like to be here when I can
铁制的钟低缓的鸣响
And when I come home cold and tired
呼唤着忠诚者使他们屈服
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire
听到细语倾诉奇妙的咒语
Far away across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells.
