I think about that day，
我想起那天
I left him at a Greyhound station，
我把他忘在圣菲的
West of Sante Fe，
灰狗巴士车站
We were seventeen, but he was sweet and it was true，
我们十七岁 但他的确非常惹人爱
Still I did what I had to do，
我做着我一如既往做的事
Cuz’ I just knew
我就知道这些
Summer Sunday nights，
夏日 星期天的晚上
We'd sink into our seats，
我们开着车
Right as they dimmed out all the lights，
街上灯光暗淡
The Technicolor world made out of music and machine，
机械与音乐交织成的世界
It called me to be on that screen，
我处于这样的情境里
And live inside each scene，
每一幕都有我的身影
Without a nickel to my name，
我身无分文
Hopped a bus, here I came，
跳上巴士 我要到来
Could be brave or just insane，
是勇敢无畏还是十分愚蠢
We'll have to see
就等着瞧吧
Cuz' maybe in that sleepy town，
也许在沉睡中的小镇里
He'll sit one day, the lights are down，
他开着车走在灯光暗淡的街上
He'll see my face and think of how he used to know me，
看到我 想起曾经与我相识过
Climb the hills I'm reaching for the heights，
翻越峻岭 跨越艰险
And chasing all the lights that shine，
追寻光芒 明亮闪耀
And when they let you down，
如果他们令你失望
You'll get up off the ground，
从哪摔倒从哪站起
As morning rolls around，
就像早晨周而复始
And it's another day of sun，
那又是阳光明媚的一天
I hear them everyday，
每一天我都听到峡谷里传来的旋律
The rhythms in the canyons that will never fade away，
空谷传响 难以绝迹
The ballads In the barrooms left by those who came before，
酒吧里的舞曲留着他人的旋律
They say "you gotta want it more"，
好像是说 你要追求更远大的理想 做最好的你自己
So I bang on every door，
我敲响每一扇房门
And even when the answer's no，
即使他们拒绝我
Or when my money's running low，
或是钱要花光 我都不在意
The dusty mic and neon glow are all I need，
我需要的只是布满灰尘的麦克风和霓虹灯
And some day as I sing the song，
我相信有一天 当我唱起自己的歌
A small-town kid will come along，
整个镇上的孩子都会被这旋律吸引
That'll be the thing to push him on and he'll go，
这就是激励我的动力 我随着内心的旋律勇往直前
Climb the hills I'm reaching for the heights，
翻越峻岭 跨越艰险
And chasing all the lights that shine，
追寻光芒 明亮闪耀
And when they let you down，
如果他们令你失望
You'll get up off the ground，
就从哪摔倒从哪站起
As morning rolls around，
就像早晨周而复始
And it's another day of sun，
那又是阳光明媚的一天
When they let you down，
当你感到失望或沮丧
The morning rolls around，
就想想太阳每天还会升起
It's another day of sun，
那会是阳光灿烂 充满活力的一天
