[00:00:37] The classroom rang with children's voices

[00:00:44] We learned about the world around us

[00:00:59] And the stones in the road

[00:01:02] Shone like diamonds in the dust

[00:01:10] To make our way back home

[00:01:14] When I was ten my father held me

[00:01:18] On his shoulders above the crowd

[00:01:21] 在人群之中 将我高高举在肩膀上

[00:01:21] To see a train draped in mourning

[00:01:26] 让我看一列满载哀悼的火车

[00:01:26] Pass slowly through our town

[00:01:29] His widow kneeled with all their children

[00:01:47] Flew out beneath our bicycle tires

[00:01:51] 在我们的自行车胎下飞走

[00:01:51] Worlds removed from all those fires

[00:01:54] 世界随着这些火焰移动

[00:01:54] As we raced each other home

[00:02:27] 我们也比赛着跑回了各自的家

[00:02:27] And now we drink our coffee on the run

[00:02:30] 现在我们匆忙喝着我们的咖啡

[00:02:30] We climb that ladder rung by rung

[00:02:34] We are the daughters and the sons

[00:02:47] By souls out on the street

[00:02:51] We give a dollar when we pass

[00:02:55] 在我们经过时会给他们一美元

[00:02:55] And hope our eyes don't meet

[00:03:02] We crave the corner suite
