Heaven sent the promised land
天赐乐土
Looks allright from where I stand
从我这里看起来很美好
Cause I'm the man on the outside looking in
只因我是乐土之外的人
Waiting on the first step
在第一级台阶上等待
Show me where the key is kept
请告诉我开门的钥匙藏在哪里
Point me down the right line because it's time
指引我一条正确的道路,是时候了
To let me in from the cold
让我进来吧,摆脱寒冷
Turn my lead into gold
把金钱变成我的方向
Cause there's chill wind blowing in my soul
因为刺骨的冷风正侵蚀着我的灵魂
And I think I'm growing old
而我想我会因此变老
Flash the readies wotsuh the deal
亮出手中钞票,值多少钱
Got to make to the next meal
可以为下一顿饭买单吧
Try to keep up with the turning of the wheel
拼命地追赶生活车轮的转动
Mile after mile
你追了一里又一里
Stone after stone
一程又一程
Turn to speak but you're alone
想说上几句话,却孑然一身
Million miles from home you're on your own
离家几万里,你只有孤身一人
So let me in from the cold
让我进来吧,摆脱寒冷
Turn my lead into gold
把金钱变成我的方向
Cause there's chill wind blowing in my soul

With her by my side
她在我身旁
And if she prefers we will never stir again
如果她愿意,我们可以永远不要醒来
Someone sent the promised land

And I grabbed it with both hands

Now I'm the man on the inside looking out

Hear me shout come on in
听我喊:“请进!”
What's the news and where you been

Cause there's no wind left in my soul

And I've grown old
我这才叫作真正的老了
