英文歌詞


Preacher - OneRepublic
When I was a kid I used to buy and sell gravity
I knew how to fly and I would teach you for a fee
Broke every window in my hotel heart
But I was only 5 years old the 12 years scar
I did the same voice that throwing up mind
See son you got an angel to chase the devil out of mind
When I was a kid my grandfather was a preacher
The talked about god yeah he was something like a teacher
He said god only helps those
Who learn to help themselves
He was a million miles from a million battles
But you can never spend his wealth
I took a little faith and put it in a parking lot
I drove to a strange town full of have and have nones
And as I walked through that story book of life
I've been looking for an angel to chase the devil out of mind whoa
When I was a kid my grandfather was a preacher
The talked about god yeah he was something like a teacher
He said god only helps those
Who learn to help themselves
He was a million miles from a million battles
But you can never spend his wealth
Wave put your hands up and hands down
Wave put your hands up and hands down
Wave put your hands up and hands down【x3】
When I was a kid my grandfather was a preacher
The talked about life yeah he was something like a teacher
He said god only helps those
Who learn to help themselves
He was a million miles from a million battles
But you can never spend his wealth
He was a million miles from a million battles
But you can never spend his wealth

中文歌詞


記得在天真的童年裡,
地心引力曾唯我所控。
知道自由翱翔的秘訣,
給點好處我便會教你。
心靈像一間旅館,飛翔時撞破了每一扇窗。
雖才年僅五歲,卻已像少年般滿身是傷。
總是聽到同樣的聲音,
在我的腦中不斷迴響。
他說“孩子你心中的天使,
會在黑夜中為你消災避禍"。
在我還年幼時,
祖父是名牧師。
常談神的奧義,
如同一位良師。
他總是教我,
天助自助者。
雖然他離腰纏萬貫相去萬里,
卻留給了我無盡的精神財富。
我原本心存一絲信念,
並把它放在了停車場。
駛進那光怪陸離的城市,
人人都為了物質而掙扎。
揮舞你的雙手,高舉后再落下。【X3】
在我還年幼時,
祖父是名牧師。
常談人生奧義,
如同一位良師,
他總是教我,
天助自助者。
他離腰纏萬貫相去萬里,
卻給後人留下了無盡的精神財富。
