I come from a long line of pain 我从痛苦中长线

My family suffered greatly for my gain 我的家庭蒙受苦难我的收获

And I think a lot about 我想了很多关于

How my daddy died 怎么我的爸爸死了

So I would not live without 所以，我生活中不可缺少

   

And his heart lives in my song 而他的心脏住在我的歌

Where the melody comes 凡旋律来

And just as quickly the melody is gone 并同样迅速地旋律走了

I'm back alone, far from home 我回来了独自一人，远离家乡

   

Now my mamma's on her own 现在，我的妈妈是她自己

I try to call her and see her when I'm home 我试着打电话给她，看她的时候我回家

And after all that she's been through 毕竟，她一直通过

All the doctors say: "There ain't nothing we can do" 所有的医生说： “没有，我们也没有办法”

   

And her heart lives in my song 她的心脏住在我的歌

Where the melody comes 凡旋律来

And just as quickly the melody is gone 并同样迅速地旋律走了

I'm back alone, far from home 我回来了独自一人，远离家乡

   

There's a bird outside my window 有窗外的小鸟

Takes the song where he goes 注意到这首歌他去哪里

And he leaves it there 他离开它有

Like a dead man's rocking chair 就像一个死人的摇椅

   

And tonight I'm feeling lost and 今晚我感觉失落和

Headin' down the highway out to Boston 航向在高速公路上出了波士顿

I get the sense I might lose it 我得到的感觉我可能会失去它

I thank God tonight for the light I got in music 我感谢上帝，今天晚上我的音乐得到了光

   

'Cause my heart lives in this song 因为我的心脏住在这首歌曲

Where the melody comes 凡旋律来

And just as quickly, the melody is gone 并同样迅速地，旋律走了

I'm back alone, far from home 我回来了独自一人，远离家乡
