I was an August baby 我是月宝宝

Conceived by the Christmas lights 由圣诞灯饰设想

I came into the world by the setting sun 我来到这个世界的夕阳

On a humid summer night 在潮湿的夏夜

When my grandmother held me for the very first time 当我的奶奶抱着我的第一次

She thanked God I looked like my daddy 她感谢上帝，我长得很像我的爸爸

And I never quite knew just what she meant 我从不知道正是她的意思

But I knew she was a little too happy 但我知道她是一个有点太开心

And now I see 现在我明白了

You can't change a stubborn mind 你不能改变一个固执的头脑

You can't see the world if your eyes are blind 你看不到的世界，如果你的眼睛是瞎

What does it matter anyway 这有什么关系呢

In our darkest hour we're all just shades of grey 在我们最黑暗的时刻我们都只是灰色阴影
