Lyricist: Cat Stevens     Composer: Cat Stevens



It's not time to make a change
还未到需要做出任何改变的时刻
Just relax--take it easy
放轻松,无须看待这么重
You're still young--that's your fault
你尚且年轻还有好长的路,也正好是你的不足
There's so much you have to know
还有好多的事在前方等著你去发掘

Find a girl, settle down
找个女孩,并安定下来
If you want, you can marry
如果你愿意你也可以订下两人的永恒誓约
Look at me--I am old
看看我,我虽老
But I'm happy
但我很满足

I was once like you are now
我也曾有像你如今的风华岁月
And I know that it's not easy
我也知道那不是轻易的事
To become when you've found
当你在发现前方
Something going on
有事情等待著你

Take your time--think a lot
慢慢来,多想一下
Think of everthing you've got
想想自己拥有的全部
For you will still be here tomorrow
因为明日你依然将倚立在这里
But your dreams may not...
但你的梦想也许已随风而逝

How can I try to explain?
我该如何试著解释
When I do--it turns away again
每当我尝试时它一次又一次的转身离去
And it's always been the same
每一次的尝试都是一如往常
Same old story
重蹈覆辙
From the moment I could talk
从我可以开口的那一刻起
I was ordered to listen
我就已经被冠上聆听的命运
Now there's a way, and I know
现在我已寻至我的方向,我也知道
That I have to go away
就是我必须走了
I know, I have to go...
我知道我该起程了

I was once like you are now
我也曾有像你如今的风华岁月
And I know that it's not easy
我也知道那不是轻易的事
To become when you've found
当你在发现前方
Something going on
有事情等待著你

But take your time--think a lot
但慢慢来,多想一下
Think of everthing you've got
想想自己拥有的全部
For you will still be here tomorrow
因为明日你依然将倚立在这里
But your dreams may not...
但你的梦想也许已随风而逝

All the times, that I've cried
每当我哭泣
Keeping all the things I knew inside
我将所知之事深藏在心
And it's hard
虽然困难
But it's harder to ignore it
但更难的是忽视它
If they were right--I'd agree
如果他们是对的我将愿意承认
But it's them--they know
但他们知道那是他们的经历
Not me. Now there's a way, and I know
不是我。现在我已寻至我的方向,我也知道
That I have to go away
就是我必须走了
I know, I have to go.
我知道我该起程了
