歌词
Used to play make-believe
曾在三一河岸边，
On the banks of Trinity
玩着假想游戏，
Jump from stone to stone, just my pops and me
我和爸爸从一块石头跳到另一块，
Never knew what I had found
那时我未曾意识到，
In that girl from Corpus Town
在那个来自科珀斯克里斯蒂的女孩身上，
She was my first love, wonder how she doin' now
我找到了初恋，不知她现在过得怎样，
What if I had loved her? What if I had stayed?
如果我当时爱上了她呢？如果我留了下来呢？
What if I'd never put my money on a chase?
如果我从不把钱花在追逐上呢？
I wish that I could go back sometimes
有时我真希望能回到过去，
Simplify this life, ooh
让生活变得简单，哦，
Simplify this life
让生活变得简单，
We were children on the loose
我们曾是自由自在的孩子，
Collecting scars and the bruises
收集着伤疤和淤青，
Crossing railroad tracks just to get to school
为了上学穿越铁路轨道，
Played all day into the night
从白天一直玩到黑夜，
Had to be back by dinnertime
晚饭前必须回家，
When Mama's voice rang out, we knew it was time
当妈妈的声音响起，我们知道是时候了，
I can smell the gumbo every Saturday
每个周六我都能闻到秋葵汤的香味，
Makes me wanna come home when I'm far away
让我远在他乡时也渴望回家，
I wish that I could go back sometimes
有时我真希望能回到过去，
Simplify this life, ooh
让生活变得简单，哦，
Simplify this life
让生活变得简单，
Heaven's not hard to reach
天堂并不遥远，
Baby, all we need is to simplify
宝贝，我们所需要的只是让生活变得简单，
Don't know what tomorrow's gon' bring
不知道明天会带来什么，
Baby, all we need is to simplify
宝贝，我们所需要的只是让生活变得简单，
Travel both the land and sea
无论陆地还是海洋，
I see all I need is to simplify
我发现我所需要的只是让生活变得简单，
Fall in love when everything leaves
当一切都离去时陷入爱河，
Baby, all I need is to simplify
宝贝，我所需要的只是让生活变得简单，
Maybe all I need is to—
也许我所需要的只是——
This life, this life
让生活变得简单，让生活变得简单，
In this life
在这一生中，
Simplify this life
让生活变得简单，
Simplify this life
让生活变得简单。
