《The Living Years》歌词:
[00:00.000] 作曲 : Mike Rutherford/B.A. Robertson
[00:29.93]Every generation
[00:34.68]Blames the one before
[00:39.53]And all of their frustrations
[00:44.35]Come beating on your door
[00:49.42]I know that i'm a prisoner
[00:51.23]To all my father held so dear
[00:54.26]I know that i'm a hostage
[00:56.00]To all his hopes and fears
[00:58.68]I just wish i could have told him in the living years
[01:09.01]Crumpled bits of paper
[01:13.76]Filled with imperfect thought
[01:18.52]Stilted conversations
[01:23.15]I'm afraid that's all we've got
[01:28.52]You say you just don't see it
[01:30.94]He says it's perfect sense
[01:33.43]You just can't get agreement
[01:35.89]In this present tense
[01:38.09]We all talk a different language
[01:41.01]Talking in defence
[01:46.92]Say it loud, say it clear
[01:56.78]You can listen as well as you hear
[02:06.64]It's too late when we die
[02:16.36]To admit we don't see eye to eye
[02:26.73]So we open up a quarrel
[02:31.58]Between the present and the past
[02:36.41]We only sacrifice the future
[02:41.32]It's the bitterness that lasts
[02:46.94]So don't yield to the fortunes
[02:49.37]You sometimes see as fate
[02:51.83]It may have a new perspective
[02:54.37]On a different day
[02:56.30]And if you don't give up, and don't give in
[02:59.50]You may just be o.k.
[03:05.49]Say it loud, say it clear
[03:15.19]You can listen as well as you hear
[03:25.07]It's too late when we die
[03:34.82]To admit we don't see eye to eye
[03:45.81]I wasn't there that morning
[03:50.37]When my father passed away
[03:55.35]I didn't get to tell him
[04:00.05]All the things i had to say
[04:05.62]I think i caught his spirit
[04:07.91]Later that same year
[04:10.15]I'm sure i heard his echo
[04:12.42]In my baby's new born tears
[04:14.94]I just wish i could have told him in the living years
[04:23.21]Say it loud, say it clear
[04:33.81]You can listen as well as you hear
[04:43.39]It's too late when we die
[04:53.24]To admit we don't see eye to eye

[00:29.93]每一代人
[00:34.68]都将过错归咎于上一代
[00:39.53]而他们的那些懊恼
[00:44.35]轻叩着你的门
[00:49.42]我知道我是个囚徒
[00:51.23]被我父亲所珍视之物囚禁
[00:54.26]我知道我是个人质
[00:56.00]被我父亲的希望和恐惧劫持
[00:58.68]我只希望我本能在他的风烛残年告诉他
[01:09.01]那些褶皱的纸张
[01:13.76]写满了不完美的想法
[01:18.52]不自然的交谈
[01:23.15]恐怕是我们的仅存
[01:28.52]你说道 你就是无法看透
[01:30.94]他说那是一种完美的感觉
[01:33.43]你不能苟同
[01:35.89]毕竟已然如今
[01:38.09]我们用不同的语言交流
[01:41.01]卸不去防备之心
[01:46.92]大声地说出来 清楚地说出来
[01:56.78]你可以用心体会那些话语
[02:06.64]待我们死去 那便为时已晚
[02:16.36]去承认我们从未四目相对
[02:26.73]于是我们开始争吵
[02:31.58]争吵着曾经 争吵着现在
[02:36.41]我们将未来牺牲
[02:41.32]最终只剩苦涩蔓延
[02:46.94]勿因财富而让步
[02:49.37]有时命运亦是如此
[02:51.83]它会带来一个全新的角度
[02:54.37]在某一天
[02:56.30]只要你不放弃 你不屈服
[02:59.50]一切都将安然无恙
[03:05.49]大声地说出来 清楚地说出来
[03:15.19]你可以用心体会那些话语
[03:25.07]待我们死去 那便为时已晚
[03:34.82]去承认我们从未四目相对
[03:45.81]那天早上我并不在
[03:50.37]我父亲离开的那个早上
[03:55.35]我没能和他道出
[04:00.05]我不得不说出口的话
[04:05.62]我想我捕捉到了他的灵魂
[04:07.91]就在晚些那年
[04:10.15]我确信我听到了他的回声
[04:12.42]回响在我新生儿的眼泪中
[04:14.94]我只希望我本能在他的风烛残年告诉他
[04:23.21]大声地说出来 清楚地说出来
[04:33.81]你可以用心体会那些话语
[04:43.39]待我们死去 那便为时已晚
[04:53.24]去承认我们从未四目相对
