Young girl, so pretty.
Young boy now a hero in his face.
They’re looking out at the big wide world.
This was their time, this was their place.
He said: One day, I will make you mine.
We’ll be together till the end of time.
BrightonBeach in 1959.
Young woman, [flausing] her hair.
Young man, blazing new guitar.
So cosmics, this is the 60s.
Everything is falled out way too far.
Revolution is in the air.
Where everyone is stoned they don’t care.
Cuz’s New York in 1969.
Everybody changes, as time goes by.
But we can make it, if we try.
Another city bright lights.
A wind in streak your hair and the eyes.
Another face you wanna get to know.
Everybody says it’s the way to go.
Maybe you came on just a little too strong.
Maybe you played too hard or went wrong.
Well it was, London town in 1979.
Change partners, change of scene.
Kids get stuck, somewhere in between.
No problem we can work it out.
The things get borken and people shout.
She feels guilty thinking she should’ve stayed.
He gets scared because the bills ain’t paid.
It was somewhere in suburbia in 1989.
Everybody changes, as time goes by.
But we can make it, if we try.
Take it easy, take it slow.
There’s not much more you need to know.
Looking back at the times you had.
Hang on to the good, forget the bad.
Take one last look down memory lane.
It’s good to be starting all over again.

中文简介
漂亮的年轻女孩
英伟的年轻男孩
他们看着这个大世界
这是他们的时光,他们的地方
他说:总有一天,你是我的
我们会在一起,直到时间尽头
头戴鲜花的年轻女人
拨动着新吉他的年轻男人
如此平和安谧,此时是60年代。
一切变得出乎意料
革命气息在空气中流转
人们变得麻木,也似乎并不在乎
因这是在1969的纽约。
流光飞逝,物是人非
但我们能做得到,只要肯去试。
另一个大城市,阳光灿烂
风吹过你的头发和双眼
一张你想了解的脸庞
人们说就是这样的
也许你只要多努力一点就会实现
也许再用心一些,就不会错
但已如此
这是1979的伦敦城。
换了伴侣,换了环境
孩子夹在你们之间
有什么问题是我们能够解决的
人们开始咆哮事情变得越来越糟
她很愧疚自己当初没有留下
沉重的账单让他害怕
这是在1989的郊区某地
流光飞逝,物是人非
但我们能做得到,只要肯去试。
放轻松,慢慢来
你也不需明白太多
回忆曾拥有的旧时光
紧握着美好的,忘记那些痛苦
最后看一眼那条回忆的小路
一切重头再来也许会很好
这是1999的布莱顿海滩。
