The only the thing I see ahead is 唯一我看到前方的东西

Just the heat a rising off the road 只是热量的上升小康的道路

The rainbows I've been chasing keep on fading before I find my pot of gold 彩虹我一直在追逐不断褪色之前，我发现我的第一桶金

But more and more I'm thinking, that the only treasures that I'll ever know 但越来越多的，我想，这是唯一的珍宝，我将永远不知道

Are long ago and far behind and wrapped up in my memories of home 是很久以前远远落后和包裹在我的记忆中的家

   

Home was a swimming hole and a fishing pole and the feel of a muddy row between my toes 家是可以游泳的池塘和一个钓竿，我的脚趾之间的泥泞行的感受

Home was a back porch swing where I would sit and mom would sing amazing grace 家是一个家的后院摆在那里我会坐下来，妈妈会唱奇异恩典

While she hung out the clothes, 虽然她挂出来的衣服，

Home was an easy chair with my daddy there and the smell of Sunday supper on the stove 家是一个简单的椅子，我爸爸也和周日的晚餐炉子上的气味

My footsteps carry me away but in my mind I'm always going home 我的脚步声把我带走，但在我心中，我总是要回家

   

Now the miles I put behind me ain't as hard as the miles that lay ahead 现在，我把我身后的里程是不是很难，因为摆在面前的里程

And its much too late to listen to the words of wisdom that my daddy said 而它的太迟听智慧的话，我的爸爸说

The straight and narrow path he showed me turned into a thousand winding roads, 他给我看了直而狭窄的道路变成了一千盘山公路，

My footsteps carry me away, but in my mind I'm always going home. 我的脚步声把我带走，但在我心中，我总是要回家。

Yeah, the straight and narrow path he showed me turned into a thousand winding roads, 是的，他给我看了直而狭窄的道路变成了一千盘山公路，

My footsteps carry me away, but in my mind I'm always going home. 我的脚步声把我带走，但在我心中，我总是要回家。
