Somebody wishing on a shooting star,
人们向天边的流星许愿,
Shooting star is dreaming close the sky,
却不知道流星的愿望是更靠近天空,
I know is just a meteorite.
而我知道它其实不过一颗陨石,
People throwing pennies on a wishing well,
人们向许愿井里扔下硬币,
Wishing well is gonna run dry,
却没发现许愿井就快要干涸,
But I’m gonna leave you tonight.
而我会在今晚离开,
Everybody talking about changing the world,

World ain’t never gonna change,

But you could always change it for me!
但是如果愿意的话你可以改变我的世界(因为你就是我的整个世界啊),
I'll shuck all the oysters and you can keep the pearl,
我想让你远离这世间的一切烦扰,
I do my shucking and my jiving for free,
我会为你披荆斩棘,
Free... Like walking down the beach at night,
就像我独自一人走在沙滩的夜晚,
Throw a bunch of lines out to the way you want,我会让你做任何你想要做的事,
Till you get it right,
直到你找到你真正想要的,
Sometimes you don’t get it right!
有时候你迷失了自己,
Sometimes you won’t get it right!
有时候你想到要放弃,
But when you do, it's outta sight,
有时你觉得你已找到而其实它已溜走,
Sometimes you do, get it right,
有时你找到了。
