以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供

My father always promised us

父亲总向我们许诺

That we would live in France

我们会生活在法国

We'd go boating on the Seine

在塞纳河上泛舟

And I would learn to dance

而我将学会跳舞

We lived in Ohio then

那时我们住在俄亥俄

He worked in the mines

他在矿场工作

On his dreams like boats

他的梦想如船

We knew we would sail in time

我们知道终将启航

All my sisters soon were gone

姐妹们相继远行

To Denver and Cheyenne

去往丹佛和夏延

Marrying their grownup dreams

追寻她们的成人梦

The lilacs and the man

紫丁香与良人相伴

I stayed behind the youngest still

我仍是最小的那个

Only danced alone

独自起舞徘徊

The colors of my father's dreams were faded

父亲梦想的色彩已褪去

Faded without a sound

无声无息地消散

And I live in Paris now

如今我栖身巴黎

My children dance and dream

孩子们起舞追梦

Hearing the ways of a miner's life

听我讲述矿工往事

In words they've never seen

那些他们未曾见过的岁月

I sail my memories of home

我放逐思乡的回忆

Like boats across the Seine

如塞纳河上漂泊的船

And watch the Paris sun

凝望巴黎的落日

As it sets in my father's eyes again

余晖中又见父亲沧桑的双眼

My father always promised us

父亲总向我们许诺

That we would live in France

我们会生活在法国

We'd go boating on the Seine

在塞纳河上泛舟

And I would learn to dance

而我将学会跳舞

I sail my memories of home

我放逐思乡的回忆

Like boats across the Seine

如塞纳河上漂泊的船

And watch the Paris sun

凝望巴黎的落日

As it sets in my father's eyes again

余晖中又见父亲沧桑的双眼
