歌词

Well, what do you know?

好吧你又知道些什么呢？

Suddenly you’re older now

转瞬间你已更加成熟

They call you a grown up, with the dog and the bills and the garden and the picturesque house

他们把你称为大人有着宠物狗大把钞票花园与豪宅

And the pear tree is budding up a third year

那棵梨树已是第三年开花

And if your mother were still here

倘若你的母亲还在世

the fallen blossoms on the lawn would all disappear

所有落花定会被她清理干净

And you’re in love, you pray to God it’s forever

你已陷入爱河向上帝祈祷永远不变

But you look around, and think why try altogether?

但你环顾四周思索着为何要尝试恒久不变

But he’s endless, and on my skin like sand on the shore

但他的踪影不会消失于我肌肤之上仿佛海岸上的细沙循环往复

And that’s enough for me right now anyway at 24

而现在这样对我来说便已足够在这二十四岁年华

You travel the world, swim under a waterfall

你环游世界在瀑布下畅游

You have everything you ever wanted

你已获得了你想要的一切

you wonder when your dad will call

你总是想何时会接到你父亲的来电

Then you’re in New York again

然后你又一次来到纽约

with your oldest friend

和你最熟悉的老友

and the basket of bread’s still warm

篮子里的面包仍有余温

And that’s enough for me right now anyway at 24

而现在这样对我来说便已足够在这二十四岁年华

Oh, I know more than I ever have

以为自己知道的比所拥有的更多

and yet I know nothing at all

但我还是这般一无所知

I’m a floating feather, I’m a constant cannonball

我像一枚飘忽不定的羽毛连续发射的加农炮

I’m somebody’s baby, and someone else’s midnight call

某人的挚爱某人在深夜致电的对象

I know more than I ever have

以为自己知道的比所拥有的更多

and yet nothing at all

但我还是这般一无所知

Well, what do you know?

好吧你又知道些什么呢？

Suddenly you’re 24

转瞬间你已步入二十四岁
