Now, pretty baby, I'm runnin' back home to you
亲爱的宝贝 我正飞奔回你身旁
Fresh out the slammer, I know who my first call will be to
刚出牢笼 第一个想拨通你的号码
Fresh out the slammer, oh
刚出牢笼 重获自由
Another summer, takin' cover
又一个夏天 躲进阴凉
Rollin' thunder, he don't understand me
雷声滚滚 他不懂我的心
Splintered back in winter, silent dinners, bitter
寒冬里心碎成霜 相对无言 晚餐冰凉
He was with her in dreams
梦里他仍与她相偎
Gray and blue and fights and tunnels
灰蓝交织 争吵如隧道般漫长
Handcuffed to the spell I was under
被你的魔咒禁锢 我无法挣脱
For just one hour of sunshine
只为那一缕阳光的温暖
Years of labor, locks and ceilings
年复一年 困在牢笼里
In the shade of how he was feelin'
在他心事的阴影里徘徊
But it's gonna be alright, I did my time
但一切终会变好，我已熬过煎熬
Now, pretty baby, I'm runnin' back home to you
亲爱的宝贝，我正飞奔回你身旁
Fresh out the slammer, I know who my first call will be to
刚出牢笼 第一个想拨通你的号码
Fresh out the slammer, oh
刚出牢笼 重获自由
Camera flashes, welcome bashes
闪光灯闪烁 派对正火热
Get the matches, toss the ashes off the ledge
擦亮火柴 让灰烬随风飘散
As I said in my letters, now that I know better
就像信里写的那样 如今我已成长
I will never lose my baby again
我绝不会再让你离开我身旁
My friends tried but I wouldn't hear it
朋友们劝我 我却充耳不闻
Watched me daily disappearing
看着我在你眼前 一天天走远
For just one glimpse of his smile
只为能再看他一眼笑颜
All those nights you kept me going
那些夜晚有你相伴我才撑得下去
Swirled you into all of my poems
将你写进诗行里盘旋
Now we're at the starting line, I did my time
此刻站在起点线 我已等待多年
Now, pretty baby, I'm runnin'
亲爱的宝贝 我正奔向远方
To the house where you still wait up and that porch light gleams
回到那盏门廊灯依然为你点亮的家
To the one who says I'm the girl of his American Dreams
对那个说我是他美国梦的女孩的人
And no matter what I've done, it wouldn't matter anyway
无论我如何挣扎 结局都不会改变
Ain't no way I'm gonna screw up, now that I know what's at stake
既然知道代价沉重 我绝不会再失手
At the park where we used to sit on children's swings
在旧日秋千轻荡的公园里
Wearing imaginary rings
指尖缠绕着虚幻的承诺
But it's gonna be alright, I did my time
但一切终会好起来，我已熬过阴霾
