歌词
Welcome to the end of being alone inside your mind
欢迎大家来到我的思维殿堂
Tethered to another and you’re worried all the time
总是被其他事物束缚，令你焦虑不安
You always knew the melody but you never heard it rhyme
你向来只知道歌曲的旋律却听不出这美妙的节奏
She’s fair and she is quiet, Lord, she doesn’t look like me
主啊，她是如此纯洁美丽，温婉安静，她和我截然不同
She made me love the morning, she’s a holiday at sea
因为她，我爱上了早晨，她就像那海边的假日之旅
The New York streets are as busy as they always used to be
纽约的街道繁忙之景象如同以往
But I am the mother of Evangeline
但我是伊万杰琳的母亲
她从我身上学会的第一件事是嗜睡与任性
The first things that she took from me were selfishness and sleep
她打碎了一件昂贵的传家之宝，没关系，我也从未想将之保留
She broke a thousand heirlooms I was never meant to keep
她让我的生活丰富多彩，也破坏了我的计划，毁了我的车
She filled my life with color, cancelled plans and trashed my car
然而，这些身外之物并不能代表我们自身
But none of that is ever who we are
窗外是连绵的山脉和皑皑白雪
Outside of my windows are the mountains and the snow
我哄着你入眠，带你睡着，我便能安然离开
I hold you while you’re sleeping and I wish that I could go
我身边那些吵吵闹闹的朋友都实现了自己的梦想
All my rowdy friends around accomplishing their dreams
但我是伊万杰琳的母亲
But I am the mother of Evangeline
清晨，他们仍然读着报纸，喝着咖啡，享受时光
夜晚，他们依旧侃侃而谈，品味美酒
They’ve still got their morning paper and their coffee and their time
然而，我看见的所有美好
They still enjoy their evenings with the skeptics and their wine
都可以透过你的眼睛，你的年龄，再次看到
Oh but all the wonders I have seen I will see a second time
你之降世并不是一场意外
From inside of the ages through your eyes
世界与我们为敌，而我们为你拼劲全力
You were not an accident where no one thought it through
在你选好名字的时候，我们就明白你也要与之抗衡
The world has stood against us, made us mean to fight for you
对我而言，你是如此梦幻而美丽
And when we chose your name we knew that you’d fight the power, too
倘若没有你，我便不会获得成功
因此，人们才能够将财富保留，继续循规蹈矩的生活
You’re nothing short of magical and beautiful to me
因为，我是伊万杰琳的母亲
I would never hit the big time without you
人们才能够将财富保留，继续循规蹈矩的生活
So they can keep their treasure and their ties to the machine
因为，我是伊万杰琳的母亲
Cause I am the mother of Evangeline
噢噢噢
They can keep their treasure and their ties to the machine
Cause I am the mother of Evangeline
Ooooh....
