If I wanted to know who you were hanging with
如果我想知道你和谁在一起
While I was gone I would have asked you
不在你身边时我大可问你
It’s the kind of cold, fogs up windshield glass
起了雾的挡风玻璃 阵阵寒意
But I felt it when I passed you
就如冷若冰霜的你
There’s an ache in you put there by the ache in me
我的痛苦形成了你的痛楚
But if it’s all the same to you
但若一切对你而言毫无差别
It’s the same to me
对我而言也没分别

So we could call it even
那我们就算扯平了
You could call me babe for the weekend
这周末你可称我为宝贝
‘Tis the damn season, write this down
我们得把这该死的季节写下来
I’m stayin’ at my parents’ house
住在父母家的我
And the road not taken looks real good now
发现了那条从未行过的路，
如今看起来真诱人
And it always leads to you in my hometown
而它总把我带往你与家乡

I parkеd my car right between the Methodist
And thе school that used to be ours
我把车子停在教堂与我们的母校间
The holidays linger like bad perfume
假日如过期的香水在空气中弥漫
You can run, but only so far
可逃，却也逃不远
I escaped it too, remember how you watched me leave
当时我也潜逃了，记得你目送我离去
But if it’s okay with you, it’s okay with me
若你觉得一切没怎样，
我也觉得无所谓

We could call it even
那我们就算扯平了
You could call me babe for the weekend
这周末你可称我为宝贝
‘Tis the damn season, write this down
我们得把这该死的季节写下
I’m stayin’ at my parents’ house
住在父母家的我
And the road not taken looks real good now
发现了那条从未行过的路，
如今看起来真诱人
Time flies, messy as the mud on your truck tires
时光飞逝，
纠结的感情如你轮胎上的泥
Now I’m missing your smile, hear me out
现在的我却想念起了你的笑容，听我说
We could just ride around
我们可游游车河
And the road not taken looks real good now
那条从未行过的路，
如今看起来真诱人
And it always leads to you in my hometown
而它总把我带往你与家乡

Sleep in half the day just for old times’ sake
睡去了大半天只因怀念起旧时的时光
I won’t ask you to wait if you don’t ask me to stay
若你没开口要我留下，我也绝不会开口要你等待
So I’ll go back to L.A. and the so-called friends
我会回到洛杉矶，回到所谓的朋友身边
Who’ll write books about me, if I ever make it
有些会把我写进书里，若我成名的话
And wonder about the only soul who can tell which smiles I’m fakin’
不时会想起，那个懂得分辨我真假笑容的人
And the heart I know I’m breakin’ is my own
而我知道亲手粉碎的心，属于我自己
To leave the warmest bed I’ve ever known
当我选择了离开最温暖的堡垒时

We could call it even
我们就算是扯平了吧
Even though I’m leavin’
就算我要离开了
And I’ll be yours for the weekend
这周末我还是会属于你
‘Tis the damn season
这该死的季节

We could call it even
我们就算是扯平了吧
You could call me babe for the weekend
这周末你可称我为宝贝
‘Tis the damn season, write this down
我们得把这该死的季节写下
I’m stayin’ at my parents’ house
住在父母家的我
And the road not taken looks real good now
发现了那条从未行过的路，
如今看起来真诱人
Time flies, messy as the mud on your truck tires
时光飞逝，
纠结的感情如你轮胎上的泥
Now I’m missing your smile, hear me out
现在的我却想念起了你的笑容，听我说
We could just ride around
我们可游游车河
And the road not taken looks real good now
那条从未行过的路，
如今看起来真诱人
And it always leads to you in my hometown
而它总把我带往你与家乡
It always leads to you in my hometown
它的终点永远是你与家乡
