给自己的信: Letter to Me



Letter to Me    by Brad Paisley
If I could write a letter to me
And send it back in time to myself at 17
First I'd prove it's me
By saying look under your bed
There's a Skoal can and a Playboy
No one else would know you hid
And then I'd say I know it's tough
When you break up after seven months
And yeah I know you really liked her
And it just don't seem fair
All I can say is pain like that is fast and it's rare
And oh you got so much going for you going right
But I know at 17
It’s hard to see past Friday night
She wasn't right for you
And still you feel like
There’s a knife sticking out of your back
And you're wondering if you'll survive
You'll make it through this and you'll see
You're still around to write this letter to me
At the stop sign at Tomlinson and Eighth
Always stop completely
Don’t just tap your breaks
And when you get a date with Bridgett
Make sure the tank is full
On second thought forget it
That one turns out kind of cool
Each and every time you have a fight
Just assume you're wrong and dad is right
And you really should thank Mrs. Brinkman
She spent so much extra time
It's like she sees the diamond underneath
And she's polishing you 'til you shine
And oh you got so much going for you going right
But I know at 17
It’s hard to see past Friday night
Tonight's the bonfire rally
But you're staying home instead
Because if you fail Algebra
Mom and dad will kill you dead
Trust me you'll squeak by and get a C
And you're still around to write this letter to me
You've got so much up ahead
You'll make new friends
You should see your kids and wife
And I'd end by saying have no fear
These are nowhere near the best years of your life
I guess I'll see you in the mirror
When you're a grown man
P.S. go hug Aunt Rita every chance you can
And oh you got so much going for you going right
But I know at 17
It’s hard to see past Friday night
I wish you'd study Spanish
I wish you'd take a typing class
I wish you wouldn't worry, let it be
I'd say have a little faith and you'll see
If I could write a letter to me
To me

如果我能够给自己写信
我会寄给十七岁时的自己
首先我会证明那是我
我会说看看你的床下
那里有一个啤酒罐和一本《花花公子》
没人知道你把它们藏在哪了
然后我要说那令你很难受
当你交往了七个月的女孩儿和你分手
是啊,我知道你好喜欢她
那似乎不很公平
但我只能说那是短暂的痛苦而且极少发生
你有着美好的未来
但我知道在十七岁
很少有谁去想周五以后的事儿
她不适合你
你却依然
心如刀绞
不知能否活下去
但最终你能熬过这一切并且看到
你仍然好好的并写这封信给我
在Tomlinson与第八街的交口处
看到停车信号时一定要将车停住
不要仅仅只是点一脚刹车
但你和Bridgett约会
要确信油箱是加满的
再仔细想想别太在意了
那女孩儿并不很酷
每一次的争执
就只当是你错了而爸爸是对的
你真要好好感谢Brinkman老师
她为你花费了那么多额外的时间
好像她看到了地下的钻石
她不停的打磨直到你闪闪发光
你有着美好的未来
但我知道十七岁时
很少有谁想周五晚上以后的事儿
今晚有个篝火晚会
但你会留在家里
因为一旦代数考不好
爸妈不会饶过你
相信我你会勉强得个C
但你仍然好好的写这封信给我
你前途似锦
你将结实许多新朋友
你该看看你的妻儿
最后我要说别担心
这远不是你生命中最好的时候
我想当你变成一个成熟男人的时候
我们会在镜中再相见
还有:别忘了一有机会就给Rita阿姨一个拥抱
你有着美好的未来
但我知道十七岁时
很少有谁去想周五晚上以后的事儿
希望你学习西班牙文
去参加一个打字培训班
希望你别太忧虑,万事顺其自然
自信点,你会明白的
如果我能写封信给自己
给我自己
