《父子迷情》插曲

Father:
It's not time to make a change,
现在还不是改变的时候，
Just relax, take it easy.
放松下来，别太认真
You’re still young, that's your fault,
你还年轻，那是你的错，
There’s so much you have to know.
有太多的事你必须去了解，
Find a girl, settle down,
找个女孩，安顿下来，
If you want you can marry.
如果你愿意，还可以结婚。
Look at me,
I am old, but I'm happy.
看看我，我虽老了，可我很幸福。
I was once like you are now,
and I know that it’s not easy,
我曾像你现在这样，
To be calm when you’ve found something going on
我知道当你发现一些事情发生时，
是难以保持冷静的，
But take your time, think a lot,
不过，花些时间好好想想为什么，
Why, think of everything you’ve got.
想想你已得到的，
For you will still be here tomorrow,
but your dreams may not.
到明天你还会在这里，
但你的梦却不会，


Son:
How can I try to explain,
when I do he turns away again.
我该如何解释，每当我尝试
他总是背过脸去，
It’s always been the same, same old story.
每次总是这样，一直如此。
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen
从我能说话的那刻起我就被要求听从。
Now there’s a way and I know that I have to go away
如今路在眼前，我知道我必须离去。
I know I have to go.
我知道我必须离去。
It’s not time to make a change,
现在仍不是改变的时候，
Just sit down, take it slowly.
先坐下，一步步来。
You’re still young, thats your fault,
你还年轻，那是你的错，
There’s so much you have to go through.
仍有太多的事情你要去经历。
Find a girl, settle down,
找个女孩，安顿下来，
If you want you can marry.
如果你愿意，还可以结婚。
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.
看看我，我虽老了，可我很幸福。
(son-- away away away, I know I have to
Make this decision alone - no
All the times that I cried,
keeping all the things I knew inside,
每一次的哭泣，我都把所有的心事藏在心底
Its hard, but it’s harder to ignore it.
这很艰难，但漠视自己的想法更加难。
If they were right, I’d agree,
but it’s them you know not me.
如果他们认为漠视是对的，我不反对，
但那是他们，你知道那不是我。
Now there’s a way and I know that I have to go away.
如今路在眼前，我知道我必须离去。
I know I have to go.
我知道我必须离去。

高一课本听力练习里就有这首歌……不过现在问了好多同学都没有印象，估计当时很多英语老师直接给跳过了……

父与子……这种感觉只可意会，不可言传

后来发现，新西兰电信有个Keep in touch 的广告选用了这首歌父亲演唱的部分
