She left St.John's one day in May 她离开圣约翰5月的一天

Dressed in her Sunday best 穿着她最好的星期天

A kind man sat beside her 一种男人，坐在她旁边

While she cried her way out West 虽然她哭了她的出路西

   

She moved in with her cousin 她搬去和她的表妹

Found a job down in the mall 在商场里找到了一份工作下来

Her friends at home were jealous 她的朋友们在家里都嫉妒

Said they'd see her in the fall 说他们会看到她在秋天

   

[Chorus] [合唱]

You know that she wants to try, 你知道，她想尝试一下，

never lets you see her cry 从来不会让你看到她哭了

You know that she wants to try, 你知道，她想尝试一下，

she's got seagulls in her eyes 她有海鸥在她的眼睛

   

The people here seem really nice 这里的人们似乎真的很不错

But the winter's way too long 但是冬天的太长

New friends, they don't understand 新朋友，他们不明白

They just tell her to be strong 他们只是告诉她要坚强

   

She made some decent money 她做了一些体面的钱

But nothing comes for free 但是，天下没有免费的

The busy streets just can't compete 繁忙的街道上就不能抗衡

With the sky, the rocks and sea 随着天空，岩石和大海

Her parents came at Eastertime 她的父母来了在Eastertime

They wanted her to stay 他们希望她留下来

But she went and got a panel van 但她去了，得到了厢式货车

Moved home on her birthday 在她生日那天搬家

   

The girls in town all said 城里所有的女孩说：

She couldn't make it on her own 她不能在她自己的使

Now the sky's a little smaller 现在天有点小

And it doesn't seem like home 它似乎并不像回家

   

[Chorus] [合唱]
