I have a mandolin 我有一个曼陀林

I play it all night long 整夜我玩它

It makes me want to kill myself 这让我想自杀

I also have a dobro 我也有一个多布罗

Made in some mountain range 取得了一些山脉

Sounds like a mountain range in love 听起来像一个山脉爱情

But when I turn up the tone 但是，当我打开了口气

On my electric guitar 我的电吉他

I'm afraid of the dark without you close to me 我怕黑，没有你靠近我

I went out to the forest and caught 我出去到森林，抓住

A hundred thousand fireflies 成百成千的萤火虫

As they ricochet round the room 当他们弹轮房

They remind me of your starry eyes 他们提醒你的星空我的眼睛

Someone else's might not have made me so sad 别人的可能不会让我如此难过

But this is the worst night I ever had 但是，这是最糟糕的晚上，我曾经有过

'cause I'm afraid of the dark without you close to me “因为我怕黑，没有你靠近我

You won't be happy with me, 你会不会让我欢喜着，

But give me one more chance 但请给我多一次机会

You won't be happy anyway 你会不会幸福呢

Why do we still live here 为什么我们还住在这里

In this repulsive town? 在这种令人厌恶的小镇？

All our friends are in New York 我们所有的朋友都在纽约

Why do we keep shrieking, 为什么我们不断尖叫，

when we mean soft things? 当我们的意思是软的东西？

We should be whispering all the time... 我们应该窃窃私语所有的时间...
