I remember when you were only 17 我还记得当你只有17

You were the finest girl that my eyes had ever seen 你是我的眼睛所见过的最好的女孩

I guess you found it hard to simply just ignore 我猜你发现很难简单地忽略

This scruffy beat up working class teenage troubadour 这破旧的一掌工人阶级十几岁的行吟诗人

   

So we fell in love and I tuned your heart 因此，我们爱上我调整你的心脏

With my out of tune guitar 与我格格不入吉他

You were wonderful, you were mystical 你的精彩，你是神秘的

And the envy of all of my friends 和我所有的朋友都羡慕

Seems like only yesterday 好像昨天才

Oh what a time it was 哦，那是什么时候

What a time to be alive 什么时候自己还活着

Remember Janice and Jimmy 记得Janice和吉米

Kennedy and King 肯尼迪和国王

How they cried 他们怎么哭了

   

I sang to you the songs of Lamb and Jack 我唱你羔羊和杰克的歌曲

You were Greta Garbo and I was Cadillac 你是葛丽泰·嘉宝，我是凯迪拉克

And we played so hard and we loved so hard 而我们打得这么辛苦，我们喜欢这么难

Seemed we never ever slept 好像我们从来没有睡过

There were crazy days, there were wonderful days 有疯狂的日子，有美好的时光，

And I loved you with all of my heart 我爱你用我所有的心脏

Seems like only yesterday 好像昨天才

Your daddy had plans that did not include me 你爸爸有计划，不包括我

And he won't stay away from your door 他会不会从你的门远离

And I dreamed how I dreamed I could steal you away 我梦见我怎么梦见我能偷你走

To some far distant shore 一些遥远的岸边

   

Then early one morning 然后一天清早

I awoke to find you gone 我醒来发现你不见了

You wrote 'I love you baby 你写的“我爱你，宝贝

But it's time for me to move on' 但它的时候让我继续前进“

And so my teenage heart laid scattered on the floor 所以，我十几岁的心脏奠定散落在地板上

I swear to God I could not have loved you anymore 我向上帝发誓，我不可能再爱你

   

And as I sit here the night, playing with my kids 当我坐在这里的夜晚，打我的孩子

Wondering where you are in this world 想知道你在这个世界上

Did you find your man, are you happy now? 你有没有发现你的男人，你高兴了吧？

Do you ever stop and think about me 你有没有停下来想想我

   

How I long for yesterday 我多么渴望昨日
