歌词
Down the street, you can hear her scream, "You're a disgrace"
在街上你能听见她的咆哮，“你真让我感到羞耻！”
As she slams the door in his drunken face
接着她猛地关上了门 回绝了他的一副醉颜
And now he stands outside
现在的他呆站在门外
And all the neighbors start to gossip and drool
领教邻居们的闲言碎语
He cries, "Oh girl, you must be mad
他哭喊道，“亲爱的，一定有什么误会
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?"
我们之间这美丽的爱情到底是怎么了？”
Against the door he leans and starts a scene
倚靠在门上 他开始黯然神伤
And his tears fall and burn on the garden green
他的泪水不停滴落 灼伤苍翠的叶子
And so castles made of sand
于是沙做的城堡啊
Fall in the sea
沉入海里
Eventually
了无踪迹
A little Indian brave who before he was ten
一个小小的印第安勇士在他不到十岁的时候
Played war games in the woods with his Indian friends
跟他的伙伴在树林里面玩作战游戏
And he built a dream that when he grew up
当时的他就梦想着长大成人后
He would be a fierce warrior Indian chief
要成为一名骁勇的印第安战士将领
Many moons passed and more the dream grew strong
月升月落 他的梦想也日渐坚定稳固
Until tomorrow he would sing his first war song
明天他就要唱响他的第一曲战歌
And fight his first battle, but something went wrong
打响他漂亮的第一战 但是糟糕的事发生了
Surprise attack killed him in his sleep that night
不曾想 突袭就将他在睡梦里杀死
And so castles made of sand
于是沙做的城堡啊
Melts into the sea
融入海里
Eventually
瞬息湮灭
There was a young girl whose heart was a frown
那个女孩 她的心灵萎缩成一团
Because she was crippled for life, and she couldn't speak a sound
就因她终生残废 而且发不出一点声音
And she wished and prayed she could stop living
她祈求早日结束她这委屈的一生
So she decided to die
她决定去死
She drove her wheelchair to the edge of the shore
她摇着轮椅到了岸边
And to her legs she smiled, "You won't hurt me no more"
看着她的腿 她笑着，“你再也阻碍我不了 再也不。”
But then a sight she'd never seen made her jump and say
但令她震惊得几乎跃起的是眼前从未出现过的景象
"Look, a golden winged ship is passing my way"
“看 扑扇着金色翅膀的船正从那儿驶过”
And it really didn't ever stop
实际它根本不曾停下来
It just kept on going
而且只会驶向更远
And so castles made of sand
于是沙做的城堡啊
Slips into the sea
一旦滑入海里
Eventually
就被吞没不见
