歌词
I recall when I was small
我回想起当我小的时候，
How I spent my days alone
是如何一个人度过时日；
The busy world was not for me
这繁忙的世界不属于我，
So I went and found my own
因此我离开，去寻找自己的地方。
I would climb the garden wall
我会爬过园墙，
With a candle in my hand
手里拿着一支蜡烛，
I'd hide inside a hall of rock and sand
藏在岩石与沙子的堂宇里。
On the stone an ancient hand
石头上，古代的痕迹
In a faded yellow-green
在淡去的黄绿色中呈现，
Made alive a worldly wonder
一个活生生的寰球奇观，
Often told but never seen
常常听说，但从未见过。
Now and ever bound to labor
时刻、永远，注定在阵痛中运转，
On the sea and in the sky
在海上；在空中；
Every man and beast appeared
每个人和每头野兽都展露了身份：
A friend as real as I
一个友人。正像我自己一样真。
Before the fall when they wrote it on the wall
塌方以前的时候，他们把那些话写在了墙上，
When there wasn't even any Hollywood
那时“好莱坞”甚至还不存在，
They heard the call
有人听见了“召唤”，
And they wrote it on the wall
并且把它写在墙上，
For you and me we understood
为了使今天的我们明白。
Can it be this sad design
是不是本就出于如此悲哀的构想？
Could be the very same
是不是，这二者其实完全一样？
A wooly man without a face
一个无脸的、多毛的愚人，
And a beast without a name
与一头无名的野兽。
Nothin' here but history
此处只有历史，别无它物，
Can you see what has been done?
你看到那些已铸成的事实了吗？
Memory rush over me
回忆冲过了我，
Now I step into the sun
现在，我走入了白日之中。
