Getting Old
When we were younger time was under careful lock and key
我們年輕時時光都被鑰匙和鎖安全保管
Now its open, tipped and pourin out all over me
現在它們被如數放出劈頭蓋臉朝我傾瀉而來
Oh! what a shame, that our days, you explained
「哦,我們的日子是些多大的遺憾啊!」你這樣說
I thought you had meant they were long
我曾以為你是指它們太長
Not till the night when I turned 25
直到25歲生日的前夜
I saw that I had it all wrong
我才發現之前自己全理解錯了
我開始厭倦任憑時間流逝
I was gettin tired of lettin all my hours pass
希望在不久之後的某天或某處一切都能永存
Hopin someday soon or somewhere everything would last
哦多遺憾啊當我看著你充滿生機的年輕身形
Oh! what a shame, when I look at your frame
我知道終有一天它會化為塵土
I know someday it will be dust
這念頭還有點兒遙遠
Not that the thought is that close
但我猜它正徐行靠近
cause its not but , I guess its just creepin up
其實也沒那麼糟啦我們擁有全部的時間
所有本可能發生的事情都已成謎
Oh and its not that bad, its all this time weve had
永遠不會被我們知曉
Things that could be, became mystery
我們還沒走出很遠已度過的歲月也沒有很長
well never know instead
而且我們空空的茶杯正逐漸被裝滿
Oh were not too far gone, it hasnt been that long
所以我們永遠沒必要害怕變老
Oh and our empty tea cup, is getting filled up
哦哦哦
So well never have to dread getting old
不過也沒那麼糟啦我們擁有全部的時間
所有本可能發生的事情都已成謎
Oh oh ohhs
再沒有機會被我們知曉
我們還沒走出很遠已度過的歲月也沒有很長
Oh but its not that bad, its all this time weve had
而且我們的茶杯正逐漸被裝滿
The things that could be, became mystery
所以我們永遠沒必要害怕
well never know instead
害怕變老害怕掉光牙齒花白頭髮變成一群老胳膊老腿兒的老頭兒老太太
Oh were not too far gone, it hasnt been that long
Oh and our tea cup, is getting filled up
So well never have to dread
Getting old, getting old, getting old, getting old
