Daddy always said he'd come back when the first snow came 爸爸总是说他会回来的，当第一场雪来了

Bringing treats like Santa Claus on Christmas day 把像圣诞老人对待在圣诞节当天

Still I waited by the window at Christmas time 不过我等了靠窗的圣诞节

And I sat on the front steps as Easter rolled by 我坐在由冷轧前的步骤，复活节

Then we moved to Arizona 'round the 4th of July 然后我们搬到亚利桑那州的“圆7月4日

But Daddy never came, I waited just the same. 但爸爸没有来，我等一样的。

And they say it never snows in Arizona 他们说，它从来没有下雪在亚利桑那州

But I never stopped believing that it would 但我从来没有停止过相信它会

And before I'd go to sleep at night 之前我会去睡觉，晚上

I'd look up at the desert sky 我仰望天空的沙漠

Close my eyes the same ole prayer again 再次闭上了眼睛一样OLE祈祷

I'd wake up and see the snowfall on the sand. 我醒来时，看到在沙滩上的降雪。

   

Part of growing up for me was learning way too soon 长大了我的一部分太快了学习的方法

The difference between fantasy and cold hard truth 幻想和冷酷的事实之间的区别

Momma liked to say accept those things you cannot change 妈妈喜欢说接受这些东西你无法改变

She was scared I 'd be like Dad and dream my life away. 她很害怕我会像爸爸的梦想我的生命。

But in a corner of my mind I kept a place for him 但在我心中某个角落我一直在他的位置

'Cause a promise lasts forever when you're just a kid 事业的承诺是永恒的，当你只是个孩子

Yea, he told me in a season he'd be back again 是的，他告诉我在一个赛季中他会再回来

But Daddy never came, I waited just the same. 但爸爸没有来，我等一样的。
