Old Pen

I met an old man
我遇見了一位老者
I said tell me your story
我問他過去的故事
He took out an old pen
他拿出一支舊鋼筆
And wrote somethin' for me
然後為我寫了些字
Then he kept walking on down the road
而後他繼續向前走
And I watched him disappear like smoke
我目睹他似迷霧散盡般消失於人海
And I thought I'd just seen a ghost
我覺得方才似乎看見的是一副軀殼
Then I looked down at what he'd wrote
所以我低頭看看他寫了什麼
It said son when you grow up you'll be fine
上面寫著孩子當你長大後一切都會好的
I know you've got questions on your mind
我知道你腦海中仍有謎團無法解開
Life is gonna happen one way or the other
該發生的總會來臨
Whether you like it or not
無論你翹首以盼還是避而不見
Stop looking for the answers and you'll find what you've got
或許不急於求成才會發現擁有如此之多
I met a young man
我碰見一個年輕人
Searchin' for glory
一生只為追求光耀
I took out an old pen
我拿出一支舊鋼筆
And wrote him my story
緩緩寫下我的故事
Then I kept walking on down the road
之後我繼續沿路而行
When your time is up, it's time to go
時間已到就不宜停駐
I pray he reads what's on the note
我祈禱他的未來會如便條上的一樣
And takes to heart what I wrote
並且牢牢記住這些字
It said son when you grow up you'll be fine
我寫了年輕人當你成熟後一切會好的
I know you've got questions on your mind
我清楚你的腦海裡仍有亂麻尚未理清
Life is gonna happen one way or the other
該發生的總會降臨
Whether you like it or not
無論你翹首以盼還是避而不見
Stop looking for the answers and you'll find what you've got
或許不急於求成才會發現擁有如此之多
When you grow up you'll be fine
當你長大後這會好起來的
I know you've got questions on your mind
我知道你的腦海仍亂如麻
Life is gonna happen one way or the other
該發生的事情它不會缺席
Whether you like it or not
無論你是期盼亦或是厭惡
Stop looking for the answers and you'll find what you've got
或許不急於功利 才會發現美好近在身邊
