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