歌词
If I die young bury me in satin
若我英年早逝，请将我葬在绸缎中
Lay me down on a bed of roses
让我躺在铺满玫瑰的床上
Sink me in the river at dawn
在黎明时分将我沉入河中
Send me away with the words of a love song
用情歌中的词句为我送行
oh oh oh oh
噢
主啊，请让我化作彩虹，我想要照耀我的母亲
Lord make me a rainbow' I'll shine down on my mother
她会知道我和您在一起如此平安
She'll know I'm safe with you
当她站在我的七彩之下
When she stands under my colors
生活并不总像你所预料的那样
Oh and life ain't always what you think it ought to be' no
总是那样灰暗，尽管她埋葬了她的孩子
Ain't even grey' but she buries her baby
须臾生命的尖锐刀锋啊
我已经活了足够的时间
The sharp knife of a short life' well
若我英年早逝，请将我葬在绸缎中
I’ve had just enough time
让我躺在铺满玫瑰的床上
在黎明时分将我沉入河中
If I die young bury me in satin
用情歌中的词句为我送行
Lay me down on a bed of roses
须臾生命的尖锐刀锋啊
Sink me in the river at dawn
我已经活了足够的时间
Send me away with the words of a love song
我会穿着纯白的衣服走进你的王国
就像是我冰冷的手指上的指环那样青涩
The sharp knife of a short life' well
我从未感受过一个男子的温柔
I’ve had just enough time
但当他握着我的手的时候，那感觉应的确那样美好
这座小镇中有一个男孩说他会永远爱我
And I’ll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
但谁知道永远竟会就这样天人两隔
I’m as green as the ring on my little cold finger
须臾生命的尖锐刀锋啊
I've never known the lovin' of a man
我已经活了足够的时间
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
所以穿上你最好的衣装，我也会戴上我的珍珠
There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever
我终于完成了我从未做到的事
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
一分钱想买我的思想，哦不，我的出价是一块钱
当我成为逝者之后他们将更有价值
The sharp knife of a short life' well
也许到那时你才会真正听懂我唱的那些歌儿
I've had just enough time
在你死后人们才开始倾听，这是多么可笑啊
若我英年早逝，请将我葬在绸缎中
So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
让我躺在铺满玫瑰的床上
What I never did is done
在黎明时分将我沉入河中
用情歌中的词句为我送行
A penny for my thoughts' oh no I'll sell them for a dollar
噢
They're worth so much more after I’m a goner
鸽子的歌谣
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin’
总是带着平静和爱
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin’
攒起你的泪水吧，将它们收进你的口袋里
好好保留着直到你真正需要它们的时候
If I die young bury me in satin
须臾生命的尖锐刀锋啊
Lay me down on a bed of roses
我已经活了足够的时间
Sink me in the river at dawn
请穿上你最好的衣装吧，我也会戴上我的珍珠
Send me away with the words of a love song
Oh oh
The ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears' keep 'em in your pocket
Save them for a time when your really gonna need 'em oh
The sharp knife of a short life' well
I've had just enough time
So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
