Song for Owen

Schmitwaldenlinderman

Do you remember

你可还记得

Not so long ago

就在不久之前

When I could just pick you up

我还能将你轻轻抱起

And warm your soul

温暖你的心灵

We'd sit and talk about the difference between

我们促膝长谈

The world of bad and good

这世间的善恶之分

And I was doing the best

我已竭尽所能

I could bedtime stories

我曾为你讲述睡前故事

Read you off to sleep

轻诵伴你入眠

Wishing you all my love

将全部爱意倾注于你

And sweet

愿你拥有

Sweet dreams

甜美梦境

I'd wait until you were closing your eyes

我会守候直到你阖上双眼

Just because

不为别的

I thought

只因

I should and

我本该

I'd wonder while

我常会思索

I watched you breathe

凝视你安睡的模样

What this crazy world had up its sleeve

这疯狂世界藏着怎样的未知

I was doing the best

我已竭尽全力

I could time flies

时光飞逝如梭

So the saying goes

常言如此

But I don't know if it's true

但我难辨真假

Because every dayd is so full of life

因为每一天都充满生机

And so much of it is you

而其中大部分都是你

Now you stand so tall

如今你已亭亭玉立

And look straight in my eyes

直视着我的眼睛

Longing with all your might

用尽全力渴望

To be strong and wise

变得坚强而睿智

So on summer nights when you're driving away

当你在夏夜驾车远去

I hope you understand

愿你能够明白

That this new found freedom you have earned

你新获得的这份自由

Worries me till you return

让我担忧直到你归来

And I'm doing the best

而我正尽我所能

I can and my love for you will never end

我对你的爱永无止境
