歌词
There's a small girl with her backpack
有一个小女孩 背着小书包
Filled with textbooks out of date
里面塞着早就过时的课本
Sings a new song every block
她每过一条街道 就哼唱一首新的歌
And gets to school about ten of eight
不知不觉就到了学校
For each hopscotch on the school lot,
每一格跳房子 呆在校园角落
There's a wall that's tagged with names,
这儿有一堵墙 上面贴着大大小小的名字
And heavy bars conceal the windows
笨重的护栏 藏起了小窗
Etched remarks detail the frames
风蚀的痕安静地留在那旧边框上
One small bird flew away from this earth
一只小小鸟 飞离了这里
Wings pushing so high
小小的翅膀 几乎要拥抱太阳
But looking down on that once fragile ground,
但每当看向云下 那片昔日残破之地
She's happy to be in the sky
她便想继续徜徉在蓝空中
O' How the sunlight burns the pavement,
日光烤着路面
As the sweat forms on her brow
汗珠悄悄覆上她的眉毛
There's some shade beneath the building
荫凉之处 躲在房子下
And the hydrant's open now
和此刻正在喷水的消火栓上
And as they line up from their recess,
孩子们在课间排成一队
Cracking sounds disrupt the sky,
巨大的破裂声撕开云空
And tiny holes as big as pennies
硬币般的小洞突现
Mark the walls as children cry
当孩子们在哭泣时 它留在了那堵墙上
And one small bird flew away from this earth
那只小小鸟 逃离了这里
Wings pushing so high
飞得很高很高
But looking down on that once fragile ground,
当她看着云下那片脆弱不堪的土地
She's happy to be in the sky
便想继续徜徉在无边无际的天空里
