歌词
She was 19 with a baby on the way
她19岁时有一个将要出生的宝宝
On the East-side of the city, she was working every day
在城市的东部，她整日忙碌
Cleaning dishes in the evening, she could barely stay awake
晚上帮人洗碗碟时，甚至无法保持清醒
She was clinging to the feeling that her luck was gonna change
她坚信幸运的力量会将一切改变
And, 'cross town she would take the bus at night to a one bedroom apartment
独自乘车穿过城市的夜来到孤身一人的公寓
And when she'd turn on the light
打开电灯
She would sit down at the table
靠在桌旁
Tell herself that it's alright
安慰自己一切都会变好
She was waiting on the day she hoped her baby would arrive
她在等待，希望宝宝能够到来
She'd never be alone
这样她就不再是一个人了
Have someone to hold
这样她的怀里就有新生命了
And when nights were cold
这样当夜晚的寒冷袭来之时
She'd say
她会对自己说
这个世界没有想象中的那样美好，但是也没那么糟
The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad
能够拥有彼此，这便是是我们的幸福
If we got each other, and that's all we have
我会成为你的妈妈，牵着你的手
I will be your mother, and I'll hold your hand
永远伴在你身边
You should know I'll be there for you
当你发现这个世界没有想象中的那样美好
When the world's not perfect
没有那么友善
When the world's not kind
妈妈会拉起你的手
If we have each other then we'll both be fine
告诉你一切都会变好
I will be your mother, and I'll hold your hand
你要知道我会伴你到永久
You should know I'll be there for you
他们是一对年老的夫妻，在距离订婚地点西边的城市里渡过了他们的一生
他们有一墙承载着记忆的照片
They were 90 and were living out their days on the West-side of the city next to where they got engaged
即使生活苦涩，但他们仍感激一切
They had pictures on the walls of all the memories that they'd made
因为他们拥有彼此
And though life was never easy, they were thankful that they stayed
哪怕她惹他生气，他也决不会伤她的心
With each other, and though some times were hard
他们买不起好车
Even when she made him angry he would never break her heart
但也不需要旅行，因为他们永不分离
No, they didn't have the money to afford a fancy car
至死不渝的爱随着岁月沉淀着，比初见时更浓烈
But they never had to travel 'cause they'd never be apart
他们说
Even at the end, their love was stronger than the day that they first met
这个世界没有想象中的那样美好，但是也没那么糟
They say
能够拥有彼此，这便是是我们的幸福
我会是你的爱人，牵着你的手
The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad
伴你到永久
If we got each other, and that's all we have
当发现这个世界没有想象中的那样美好
I will be your lover, and I'll hold your hand
没有那么友善
You should know I'll be there for you
我会拉起你的手，告诉你一切都会变好
When the world's not perfect
因为我们是彼此深爱着的人
When the world's not kind
相伴到永久
If we have each other then we'll both be fine
相伴到永久
I will be your lover, and I'll hold your hand
我今年23，我的家人也会变老
You should know I'll be there for you
人没有永生，我害怕孤单
所以我很感激我的姐姐，即使我们经常有争执
You should know I'll be there for you
在灰暗的高中生活里，她是我坚持下去的希望
我知道她不会离开我
I'm 23, and my folks are getting old
虽然我讨厌见她哭
I know they don't have forever and I'm scared to be alone
但是这段词曲想告诉她
So I'm thankful for my sister, even though sometimes we fight
我会永远伴在你身边
When high school wasn't easy, she's the reason I survived
我写这段是为了告诉她
I know she'd never leave me
这个世界没有想象中的那样美好，但是也没那么糟
And I hate to see her cry
能够拥有彼此，这便是是我们的幸福
So I wrote this verse to tell her that I'm always by her side
弟弟我会牵着你的手
I wrote this verse to tell her that I'm always by her side
伴你到永久
I wrote this verse to tell her that
当你发现这个世界没有想象中的那样美好
没有那么友善
The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad
我会拉着你的手，告诉你一切都会变好
If we got each other, and that's all we have
因为我们是姐弟
I will be your brother, and I'll hold your hand
我会永远伴在你身边
You should know I'll be there for you
永远伴在你身边
When the world's not perfect
When the world's not kind
If we have each other then we'll both be fine
I will be your brother, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
You should know I'll be there for you
