We made a pact 我们做了一个协议

Lying there on our backs 在我们的背上躺在那里

Swearing to every star 说脏话，以每颗星星

That the sky did hold 这天没抱

   

Promising our love was true 看好我们的爱情是真实的

Promising to see it through 有希望通过看它

Then we headed due Southwest 然后我们前往西南到期

Across the Muscle Shoals 整个肌肉浅滩

   

We slid down a riverbank 我们滑下河岸

In the pouring rain giving thanks 在倾盆大雨感恩

For the strength just to carry on 对于强度只是进行

Through the fog and the cold 透雾和冷

   

There at the water's edge 在有水的边缘

She tugged my arm 她拉着我的胳膊

And I nodded my head 而我点点头

Just one more step 只需一个步骤

And that river took a hold 而这条河了一抱

   

When my love crosses over 当我的爱跨越

I'm coming over too 我来的太

To cross that mighty river that's before us 跨越了强大的河流，是摆在我们面前

To the new western world 到新的西方世界

Mountains high and plain unfurled 山高，普通白布

Desert stretching out 沙漠伸出

To touch the Californias 触摸加州的

   

We said we'd never look back 我们说，我们从来没有回头

We never have and that's a fact 我们从来没有，这是一个事实，

That Mississippi washed us clean 密西西比州洗干净我们

Down to the bone 到骨头

   

The journey's been long my friend 旅程一直漫长我的朋友

Hell, you never know what state you're in 该死的，你永远不知道你在什么状态

Yeah, but the unknown 是的，但未知

It's always the unknown 它总是对未知

   

When my love crosses over 当我的爱跨越

I'm coming over too 我来的太

To cross that mighty river that's before us 跨越了强大的河流，是摆在我们面前

To the new western world 到新的西方世界

Mountains high and plain unfurled 山高，普通白布

Desert stretching out 沙漠伸出

To touch the Californias 触摸加州的

   

I lost track of you a while 我失去了你跟踪了一段时间

But you were waiting for me with a smile 但你对我微笑等待

Made me feel like a little child 让我感觉像一个小孩子

With a brand new view 有了一个全新的看法

   

Let's do it all over babe 让我们重来一次宝贝

It'd just be another trip we made 它会只是我们做了另一个旅程

When my love crosses over 当我的爱跨越

I'm coming too 我来也
