Time

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day

滴答声中，单调的一天又过去了
Fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way
你在挥霍着时间
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
漫无目的地在你家乡闲逛
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
等待着有人或有事能给你指明方向
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
厌倦了躺在太阳底下,待在家里看雨
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
你还年轻，生命还很长,有的是时间来消磨今天
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
然后有一天你发现,十年已经过去
No one told you when to run  you missed the starting gun
没人告诉你什么时候应该起跑,你错失了发令枪
So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
然后你跑着要追赶太阳，但是它已落山
Racing around to come up behind you again
快速运转，又从你身后升起
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older
太阳还是平常那个太阳，但是你已经老去
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
气喘吁吁，一天天靠近死亡
Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time
一年年变短,似乎永远找不到时间
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
计划要么归零,要么变成那潦草的半页纸
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
在安静的绝望中等待是英国人的方式
The time is gone  the song is over
时间流逝,歌曲结束
Thought I'd something more to say
以为还有很多要说
Home  home again
家，再次回家
I like to be here when I can
我喜欢在这里如果我可以
When I come home cold and tired
当我寒冷又疲惫地回家
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire
挨着火炉温暖我的骨头真好
Far away across the field
穿过原野在遥远的地方
The tolling of the iron bell
传来阵阵钟声
Calls the faithful to their knees
呼唤着信徒们屈膝下跪
To hear the softly spoken magic spells
去倾听那温柔诉说的神奇咒语
