歌词
Don't let the kids win
别让年轻人赢了
Just let them lose
让他们受挫吧
They're not gonna learn anything
他们总是学不会成长
If that's the way you choose to play
如果你非得为他们选一条路的话
Don't let the kids win
别让年轻人赢了
Just let them fall
让他们摔跟头吧
You don't want them growing up thinking two-year-olds are good at playing basketball
不要让他们还天真地以为每个人出生都注定是篮球高手
Don't let your grandmother die
别让祖母去世了
While you're away
当你背井离乡的时候
A cheap trip to Thailand's not gonna make up for never getting to say goodbye
去泰国穷游的快乐无法弥补错失的最后道别机会
And don't let your brother
别让你的弟弟
Stop thinking you're cool
认为你已经不再有趣了
Yeah, I know, he's got a girlfriend now and he's taller, but that don't mean
是的,我懂,他现在有女朋友了,个头儿也比你高,但是这并不意味着
He's stopped looking up to you
他不再朝你看齐
And I've got a feeling
我能感觉到
That this won't ever change
弟弟对大哥的仰慕之情永不会变
We're gonna keep on getting older
我们都会一刻不停地变老
It's gonna keep on feeling strange
一切都会变得越来越和我们期待不同
And don't let your friends turn cold
别冷落了老朋友
While you burn to green
当你褪去老态心境回春
When they walk off the stage embrace them
当他们走下舞台,拥抱他们
And say that's the best **** I've ever seen
不要吝啬告诉他们演出精彩绝伦
And don't let your sister
不要让你的姐姐
Walk down the aisle
独自走向长廊深处
Without pulling her close, saying I love you and it's okay
记得将她拥入怀中,表达你对她的爱,告诉她一切都会好起来
If I don't see you for a while

And I've got a feeling

And don't let the time go by
不要浪费光阴
Without sitting your mother down
要时常陪伴在母亲旁边
And asking what life was like for her
打探她眼中的生活模样
Before you came to be around
在你重回她身边之前
And tell her it's okay if she puts herself first
消除她的顾忌,让她学会为自己考虑
Us kids we'll be alright if we're not the center of her universe
哪怕我们这些孩子不再是她的生活中心,那也没问题
And I've got a feeling
我有一种感觉
That this won't ever change
什么都不会变
We're gonna keep on getting older
我们都会一刻不停地变老
It's gonna keep on feeling strange

And after a late one
再过不久
I don't know anything
我对世事一无所知
Except the more I keep on talking
我滔滔不绝诉说得越多
The less breath I got left to sing
剩下可供我歌唱的气息越少
