Praying For Time - George Michael
These are the days of the open hand
游手好闲的日子没有止尽
They will not be the last
他们将不会是最后一个
Look around now
环顾四周
These are the days of the beggars and the choosers
尽是些候选者与选举人
This is the year of the hungry man
这是饥渴的一年
Whose place is in the past
一方面
Hand in hand with ignorance
充斥着活在过去的人们愚昧无知地携手
And legitimate excuses
所谓合法的借口
The rich declare themselves poor
富人哭穷
And most of us are not sure
我们大多数人都不清楚
If we have too much
自己拥有的是否太多
But we'll take our chances
但我们愿意冒险
'Cause God's stopped keeping score
因为上帝停止得分
I guess somewhere along the way
我想在路上的某个地方
He must have let us all out to play
他必须让我们出去玩
Turned his back and all God's children
转过身去，所有上帝的孩子
Crept out the back door
悄悄地从后门
And it's hard to love there's so much to hate
爱太难，恨太多
Hanging on to hope
不停地期望
When there is no hope to speak of
当再无希望可言时
And the wounded skies above say
受伤的心空说
it's much too much too late
已经太迟了
Well maybe we should all be praying for time
或许我们都应该向时光祈祷
These are the days of the empty hand
这些无为的日子
Oh you hold on to what you can
你坚持着可能
And charity is a coat you wear twice a year
所谓的慈善就像你一年穿两次的大衣
This is the year of the guilty man
这一年人们充满内疚
Your television takes a stand
连媒体广播都表明立场
And you find that what was over there is over here
然后你发现到处都一样
So you scream from behind your door
所以你被压抑地朝窗外大喊
Say what's mine is mine and not yours
大声地说着我的还是我的，不是你的
I may have too much but I'll take my chances
我或许也拥有太多可我愿意冒险
'Cause God's stopped keeping score
因为上帝停止得分
And you cling to the things they sold you
与你坚持的东西，他们出卖了你
Did you cover your eyes when they told you
你闭上你的眼睛时，他们告诉你
That he can't come back
他不会回来了
'Cause he has no children to come back for
因为他没有孩子回来
It's hard to love there's so much to hate
爱太难，恨太多
Hanging on to hope when there is no hope to speak of
当已无希望可言的时候还不住地期望
And the wounded skies above say it's much too late
受过创伤的心空会说 已经太晚了
So maybe we should all be praying for time
或许我们都应该祈祷更多的时光
