I boarded the plane, thought I'd said all my goodbyes 我登上了飞机，以为我会说，我所有的告别

Been no regrets, only sorry how time flies 一直没有后悔，只有遗憾怎么时间过得真快

A man next to me, says the city is so shallow 我旁边的一个人说，这个城市是如此的浅薄

Me I'm looking down, I see a city full of souls 我，我往下看，我看到一个充满灵魂的城市

   

And I can hardly wait 我都等不及了

To see those lights again 再见到那些灯光

A part of me remains 我的一部分仍

I'm forever changed 我永远地改变

You're always almost there 你总是几乎没有

It's a love and hate affair 这是一个爱与恨的事

I believe them when they say 我相信他们时，他们说，

You never leave LA 你永远不会离开洛杉矶

   

I retraced the steps, of all the stars on the boulevard í追溯的林荫大道上的步骤，所有的星星，

No one thinks about, what it took to get that far 没有人想着，有什么事情来走到这一步

Others who have tried, they were only left there hanging 其他人谁也试过了，他们只是离开了那里挂

And all those broken dreams, could have filled up Laurel Canyon 而所有这些破碎的梦想，可以填补纸醉金迷

   

These California skies 这些加州的天空

Put fire in my eyes 要把火在我的眼前

And I could drive for miles 我可以开车哩

With the ocean by my side 随着海洋在我身边

You're always almost there 你总是几乎没有

It's a love and hate affair 这是一个爱与恨的事

I believe them when they say 我相信他们时，他们说，

You never leave LA 你永远不会离开洛杉矶

   

39000 feet, high above the ground 39000英尺，高空

If I were in the driving seat 如果我在驾驶座位

I could have turned this plane around 我可以转头这架飞机

   

And I can't hardly wait 我不能迫不及待

To see those lights again 再见到那些灯光

A part of me remains 我的一部分仍

I'm forever changed 我永远地改变

You're always almost there 你总是几乎没有

It's a love and hate affair 这是一个爱与恨的事

I believe them when they say 我相信他们时，他们说，

You never leave LA 你永远不会离开洛杉矶
