The children sit upon the stairs 孩子们坐在楼梯

High above a valley of tears 高高在上的眼泪山谷

Don't let them see you crying that way oh no 不要让他们看到你哭的方式哦，不

Oh no Joe Porterhouse 哦，不，乔等腰

Is not gone forever 是不是一去不复返

He'll be back another day 他会回来的一天

[Chorus:] [合唱： ]

Please don't wake him let him sleep 请不要叫醒他，让他睡

It's a moment she can keep 这一刻，她能保持

Like an old bus ticket or a photograph 像一个旧公交车票或照片

Resting on the mantlepiece 搁在壁炉架

While for the wicked there is no peace 而对于恶人就没有和平

She says it's not his time to go 她说，这不是他的时间去

Why we were nearly lovers years ago 为什么我们几乎恋人年前

Now what is left for me 现在还剩下什么给我

Among the broken branches of the family tree 其中折枝家族树

   

Heart like an anchor 心脏就像一个锚

Arms like cable 如电缆武器

He stood all alone on an iron turntable 他站在独自一人在铁转盘

Don't let them see you crying that way oh no 不要让他们看到你哭的方式哦，不

It's cracking the flags 它的开裂标志
