歌词
When I was a kid, I made a book
孩提时代，我做了本册子
Planning out how my future would look
写满了对于未来的展望
I drew in pictures of houses with views
我画出被花朵团簇的房子
Two swings in the backyard, one pink and one blue
后院里的两个秋千，一粉一蓝
现在时过境迁，我希望我能够见到
Now that I'm older I wish I could see
一个仍能将我包容的新世界
A world where that still made sense to me
只因若是我未来的孩子们仍会同我一样
他们会不眠不休
'Cause if my future kids end up like me
他们会憧憬起灿烂的未来
They won't get to sleep earlier than three
做着些白日梦想，幼稚可笑
They'll be thinking 'bout how they can be
叛逆的将我所曾珍视的一切品质抛弃
Better than they are, taking it too far
可我觉得或许我见不到这一天
Trying to change the things I love the most about them
为他们起名之时，我也一样懵懂无知
And I don't think I could ever stand to see that happen, no
然后孜孜不倦的将它们写满了每一页
只因我不知何时我会开始自厌
I was too young when I picked out their names
在心里将自己的一切看的一文不值
And wrote them at the top of every page
我希望他们永远无法看见
'Cause I don't know I would grow up to hate
未来的他们将走着与我相同的路
The way that I look in my size and my shape
只因若是我未来的孩子们仍会同我一样
他们会不眠不休
I wish I could make sure that they never see
他们会憧憬起灿烂的未来
Themselves in the same way that I see me
做着些白日梦想，幼稚可笑
叛逆的将我所曾珍视的一切品质抛弃
'Cause if my future kids end up like me
可我觉得或许我见不到这一天
They won't get to sleep earlier than three
我会将这本书秘密藏起
They'll be thinking 'bout how they can be
只因我还未准备好将它抛弃
Better than they are, taking it too far
只因若是我未来的孩子们仍会同我一样
Trying to change the things I love the most about them
他们会不眠不休
And I don't think I could ever stand to see that happen, no
他们会憧憬起灿烂的未来
做着些白日梦想，幼稚可笑
I'll keep the book in a safe place
叛逆的将我所曾珍视的一切品质抛弃
'Cause I'm not quite ready to throw it away
可我觉得或许我见不到这一天
'Cause if my future kids end up like me
They won't get to sleep earlier than three
They'll be thinking 'bout how they can be
Better than they are, taking it too far
Trying to change the things I love the most about them
And I don't think I could ever stand to see that happen, no
