歌词
When you're my age
当你到我这个年纪时
I hope the world is kinder than it seems to be right now
我希望整个世界会比现在更加美好
And I hope the front page isn't just a reminder
我也希望头条新闻
Of how we keep letting each other down
不会再让大家郁郁寡欢
When I was your age, things didn't seem to be this hard
当我像你这么小时 一切都没有现在这么严峻
Riding bikes out on the street, playing tag in the backyard
孩子们会在街上骑单车 在后院玩老鹰捉小鸡
You'll outgrow your shoes
你长大了的话 以前的鞋子也穿不了了
You'll outgrow your bed
床也睡不下了
You'll outgrow this house
这个家也不再适合你了
Just don't forget when you're all grown up
你们长大成人后
That you won't feel that way
就要担负起成年人的责任
You're still gonna be my baby
但你们还是我的孩子
Even when you're my age
即使到了我这个年纪
When you're my age
当你到我这个年纪时
You'll still be full of questions
你肯定还是满怀疑惑
That I wish I had the answers to right now
我多希望我现在就有解惑之道
And those dark times might make you second guess it
困境时期你可能还会怨天尤人
But I bet love will still be making the world go round
可我相信爱总会让这个世界运转下去
When I was your age
当我像你这么小时
I didn't worry like you think you do
我不会像你一样忧心忡忡
Back then, innocence was something you could hold on to
那时候的孩子 童真依旧
You'll outgrow your shoes
你长大了的话 以前的鞋子也穿不了了
You'll outgrow your bed
床也睡不下了
You'll outgrow this house
这个家也不再适合你了
Just don't forget when you're all grown up
你们长大成人后
That you won't feel that way
就要担负起成年人的责任
You're still gonna be my baby
但你们还是我的孩子
Even when you're my age
即使到了我这个年纪
When you have kids someday
某一天当你们也有了孩子
I hope you teach them some Lord's prayer
我希望你们能教给他们主的祷辞
Before they go to bed at night
然后哄他们入睡
Like my daddy did for me and his mother did for him
一如我父亲对我那样 又如他的母亲对他那样
Well something about it just keeps you right
那其中有些哲理会让你受益匪浅
And I hope you don't work too much overtime
我也希望你不要加班
So you can be right there beside them
那样你就有时间陪着孩子们
When they close their little eyes
看着他们酣然入梦
'Cause they'll outgrow their shoes
因为他们也会长大 他们的鞋子也会穿不了
They'll outgrow their beds
他们的床也会睡不下
They'll outgrow that house
他们也会离开你的家 各自安家
And you can't stop it
而你阻止不了
Life will line your face
生活会在你的脸上刻下岁月的痕迹
Time will turn the page
时间书写完属于你的岁月又将翻篇
But they're still gonna be your babies
可他们还是你的孩子
Just like you're still gonna be my baby
正如你永远都是我的孩子
Even when you're my age
即使你到了我这个年纪
Even when you're my age
即使你到了我这个年纪
