Little Houses

Little Houses -Doug Stone
小房子-Doug Stone
A little white house
有座小白房
In the heart of town
就在小鎮的中央
On a little sad street
那條陰鬱的街道旁
Just a little run down
只是帶點簡陋的模樣
Became a home
它成了他們的家
For Bill and Sue
比爾和和甦的家
Two newlyweds
這對新婚夫婦
Who did the best that they could do
都在為這個家竭盡所能
And when they brush each other
每當他們擠著對方
Passin ＇in the hall
通過走廊的時候
Sue would smile and say:
蘇就會一邊笑著一邊說道：

“但你知道的，愛情在小房子中成長得最好了！
But you know love grows best in little houses
那種沒有多少牆壁隔開的小房子
With fewer walls to separate
吃飯和睡覺的地方那麼近
Where you eat and sleep so close together
禁不住總是會有千言萬語
You can ＇t help but communicate
假如我們之間有更多的房間
Oh and if we had more room between us
想像一下我們對彼此會多麼想念
Think of all we ＇d miss
就像這樣，愛情在小房子中成長得最好了！“
Love grows best in houses just like this
不久之後蘇和比爾
Before too long Sue and Bill
開始著手更多的事情
Were makin ＇plans
是為了傑克和吉爾的事情
For Jack and Jill
哦，那天真是幸福的一天
Oh happy day
當消息傳來的時候
When the news came in
但是該做些什麼呢？
But what to do
當他們知道蘇懷的是雙胞胎時
When they found out Sue was having twins
當他們不能在走廊裡從彼此旁邊擠過去時
When they could not pass each other in the hall
蘇還是會一邊笑著一邊說道
Well Sue would smile and say:
“這個地方確實很小很小
＂This place is really really small
但你知道的，愛情在小房子中成長得最好了！
But you know love grows best in little houses
那種沒有多少牆壁隔開的小房子
With fewer walls to separate
吃飯和睡覺的地方那麼近
Where you eat and sleep so close together
禁不住總是會有千言萬語
You can ＇t help but communicate
假如我們之間有更多的房間
Oh and if we had more room between us
想像一下我們對彼此會多麼想念
Think of all we ＇d miss
就像這樣，愛情在小房子中成長得最好了！ “
Love grows best in houses just like this
那間白色的小房子還在為他們擋住寒冷
That little white frame house still keeps them warm
儘管已經三十二年過去了
Though it ＇s been thirty-two years
自從孩子們出生已經三十二年了
Since the kids were born
當他們回望過去的時候
And when they look back now
他們緊緊地抱在一起
They hold each other tight
對彼此輕聲耳語
And whisper in each other ＇s ears:
“你知道的，你是對的
＂You know you were right
因為愛情在小房子中成長得最好了！
Because love grows best in little houses
那種沒有多少牆壁隔開的小房子
With fewer walls to separate
吃飯和睡覺的地方那麼近
Where you eat and sleep so close together
禁不住總是會有千言萬語
You can ＇t help but communicate
假如我們之間有更多的房間
Oh and if we had more room between us
想像一下我們對彼此會多麼想念
Think of all we ＇d miss
就像這樣，愛情在小房子中成長得最好了！
Love grows best in houses just like this
是的，就像這樣，愛情在小房子中成長得最好了！“
Yeah love grows best in houses just like this
