If You Were a Sailboat

如果你是一个牛仔，我会追随你的踪迹
If you were a cowboy I would trail you,
如果你是一块木头
If you were a piece of wood
我会将你钉在地板上
I’d nail you to the floor.
如果你是一艘帆船
If you were a sailboat
我会将你驶向岸边
I would sail you to the shore.

If you were a house
我会永远居住其中
I would live in you all my days.
如果你是一位传教士
If you were a preacher
我将会追随你的信仰
I’d begin to change my ways.
有时我相信命运
Sometimes I believe in fate,
但是我们制造出的机会
But the chances we create,
似乎总是更加重要
Always seem to ring more true.
你抓住了爱我的机会
You took a chance on loving me,
我也把握了爱你的机会
I took a chance on loving you.
如果我进了监狱
If I was in jail
我知道你会救我出来
I know you’d spring me,
如果我是一部电话
If I was a telephone
你会整天打电话给我
you’d ring me all day long.
如果我身处痛苦
If I was in pain
我知道你会给我唱安慰的歌
I know you’d sing me soothing songs.
有时我相信命运
Sometimes I believe in fate,

You took a chance on loving me,

I took a chance on loving you.
如果我饿了

你会给我食物
If I was hungry
如果我身处黑暗
you would feed me,
你会带我走向光明
If I was in darkness
如果我是一本书
you would lead me to the light.
我知道你会每晚阅读
If I was a book
如果你是一个牛仔
I know you’d read me every night.
