Turning Home (Album Version)
Usually take one last pass through town
每當我離開這座小鎮
Stop the car and touch the ground
我都會將車在最後緩緩停下
回頭看看那些在微風中搖曳的路燈
Watch those streetlights swayin' in the breeze
裝飾華麗的店面前
那生鏽的舊燃氣泵
Decorated store fronts
試圖在我離開之前
充實我的內心
Rusty old gas pumps
滿載回憶的明信片
要知道它們一直陪伴著我
Try to fill my mind up
我不知道有沒有哪個小鎮
像家鄉那樣
With somethin' before I go
即使遠隔千里
卻彷彿自己一直身在其中
Picture postcard memories
在我內心深處
如同橡樹年輪般深刻
know You they always make for good company
離開家的那個星期天仍記憶猶新
促使我想回家了
I don't know no town
隻身站在廣告燈牌下
不禁想起那些秋夜
Like the old town
我們到達機場時
家鄉的看台上擠滿了人群
Even when the miles are many
我踏出飛機艙門
很晚才從機場走出來
I feel like I'm still around
儘管不能一帆風順
最終我們都能順利到家
Deep inside me
現在輝煌的日子
也不如往日
Like rings through an oak tree
我不知道有哪個朋友
像老朋友那樣
Yeah, there something 'bout a Sunday when I'm gone
似乎我現在
沒有像以前那樣笑過了
That keeps me turning home
但在我內心深處
一塊記憶的碎片
standin' I'm here beneath these billboard lights
即使他們都走了但我還能聽見他們的聲音
促使我想回家了
Takes me back to those autumn nights
不會再有第二次相同的開始
果然她已經偷走了我的心
Hometown bleachers packed real tight
在舊體育館內，我徘徊了一晚上
即使我們都很努力地等待
we As marched down the field
我們一起醞釀了這甜美的愛情
祈禱著這一切屬於我
My feet would a swing from dropped tailgate
隨著畢業到來
我們一起的時間隨著消散
Out on Airport Road real late
我不知道有哪段戀情
像初戀那樣
No one could walk a line too straight
當我回憶最美的時光
usually We made it home alright
第一個想到的就是她
在我內心深處
And glory days I cant re-live
儘管這一切帶著苦澀
我還能依稀看見她的笑容即使她離開了
Stories I'll never forget
我想回家了
啊，我想回家了
And I know don't no friends
Like the old friends
I never to seem laugh now
Like I did with them
But deep inside me
A piece of history
Yeah, I hear their voices even though they're gone
And it keeps me turning home
Never twice the same way does it start
And sure enough she stole my heart
On the old gym floor, spinnin' round and round one night
And though we tried both hard to wait
We sure did love the taste
Of the sweet being love made and prayin' got I it right
Graduation came and went
Along with all the time we spent
And I don't know no love
Like the first love
When I think about the best times
She's the one I think of
Deep inside me
All though the taste is bittersweet
I see her smilin' even though she's gone
And it keeps me turning home, yeah
And it keeps me turning home
