歌词
Tour was up, middle of June
那会是六月中旬，他就要回来了
She was planning a welcome home barbeque
她正想着弄一次烧烤大餐，庆祝一下
Green bean casserole, Grandma's recipe
拿着祖母的食谱，她准备做道青豆沙锅
There was a knock on the door 'round two o'clock
凌晨两点，传来一阵敲门声
Two uniforms and her heart stopped
迎来的却是两个手捧星条旗的士兵，然后她的心就碎了一地
Yellow ribbon 'round an oak tree
橡树上的黄丝带
Blowin' in the breeze
随着微风依然在缓缓地飘着
Here's to the ones that didn't make it back home
这首歌献给那些没能回家的人
The ones we ain't seen in so long
那些我们很久没见到的人
The hold up a beer ones, the wish they were here ones
那些曾一起喝酒的，现在被怀念的人
The not forgotten but gone
还有那些已经走了却依然在我们心中的人
They're in a better place up there
他们在天上应该活得很幸福
But they sure left a hole down here
但他们在这人世间却留下了一片空白
We just go on livin' and go on missin' the ones
我们也只能继续活着继续怀念着
The ones that didn't make it back home
他们那些没能回家的人
The whole town shut down, the whole town showed up
整个小镇都关门了，都一起在教堂里祈祷着
Sang Amazing Grace, watched a slideshow of
一起唱着奇异恩典，一起回顾着
His 22 years
他的二十二年
There was laughs and there was tears
有人欢笑也有人哭泣
And that preacher talked about sacrifice
然后那牧师诉说着牺牲
And traffic stopped for them Cadillac lights
而车流都为那凯迪拉克靠边停了下来
Johnny sold beer half price that night Johnny
那儿的啤酒今晚全部半价
And everybody raised 'em high, singin'
然后所有人都干杯欢呼着
Here's to the ones that didn't make it back home
这首歌献给那些没能回家的人
The ones we ain't seen in so long
那些我们很久没见到的人
The hold up a beer ones, the wish they were here ones
那些曾一起喝酒的，现在被怀念的人
The not forgotten but gone
还有那些已经走了却依然在我们心中的人
They're in a better place up there
他们在天上应该活得很幸福
But they sure left a hole down here
但他们在这人世间却留下了一片空白
We just go on livin' and go on missin' the ones
我们也只能继续活着继续怀念着
The ones that didn't make it back home
他们那些没能回家的人
Back to that front porch
回到那个门廊
Back through that front door
回到那扇门前的她
To the life they were fightin' for
再到像她一样他们为之所牺牲的那些人
Here's to the ones that didn't make it back home
这首歌献给那些没能回家的人
The ones we ain't seen in so long
那些我们很久没见到的人
The hold up a beer ones, the wish they were here ones
那些曾一起喝酒的，现在被怀念的人
The not forgotten but gone
还有那些已经走了却依然在我们心中的人
They're in a better place up there
他们在天上应该活得很幸福
But they sure left a hole down here

We just go on livin' and go on missin' the ones
我们也只能继续活着继续怀念着
The ones that didn't make it back home
他们那些没能回家的人
The ones that didn't make it back home
他们那些没能回家的人
