Hot Air Balloon

We wrote a prelude to our own fairy tale

我們為我們自己的童話故事寫了序幕

and bought a parachute at a church rummage sale

買了降落傘，在教堂的義賣會上

and with a mean sewing machine and miles of thread

還買了一台縫紉機，和一英里長的線

we sewed the day above L.A. in navy and red

我們在降落傘上繡出洛杉磯的天空，用海軍藍和紅色

we roamed a racetrack through your mom's kitchen chairs

我們蜿蜒出一條賽車道

and fought the shadows back down your dark basement stairs

還擊退了陰影，在你的黑暗的地下室的樓梯上

I lit a match then let it catch to light up the room

我擦燃了一根火柴，然後讓它點亮整個房間

and then you yelled as we beheld an old maroon hot air balloon

然後你尖叫着當我們都注視着，這個老舊的栗色熱氣球

I'll be out of my mind

我會失去理智

and you'll be out of ideas pretty soon

很快的，你也會靈感枯竭

so let's spend the afternoon in a cold hot air balloon

所以讓我們把下午時光，都花在這個冰冷的熱氣球上面吧

leave your jacket behind

別管你的夾克衫

lean out and touch the tree tops over town

探出身子去觸碰城鎮上空的樹梢吧

I can't wait to kiss the ground wherever we touch back down

我等不及要親吻地面，無論我們何時降落回到陸地上

We drank the great lakes like cold lemonade

我們喝着五大湖的湖水，就好像在喝冰鎮檸檬水

and both got stomach aches, sprawled out in the shade

然後我們的胃都開始疼起來，伸開四肢躺在樹蔭下

swore to death, you held your breath

事情無聊的要命，你開始屏住呼吸

and I tried not to yawn

而我努力試着不打哈欠

you made my frown turn upside down and now my worries are gone

你讓我皺起的眉頭反了個方向，現在我一點都不擔心了

I'll be out of my mind

我會失去理智

and you'll be out of ideas pretty soon

很快的，你也會靈感枯竭

so let's spend the afternoon in a cold hot air balloon

所以讓我們把下午時光，都花在這個冰冷的熱氣球上面吧

leave your jacket behind

別管你的夾克衫

lean out and touch the tree tops over town

探出身子去觸碰城鎮上空的樹梢吧

I can't wait to kiss the ground wherever we touch back down

我等不及要親吻地面，無論我們何時降落回到陸地上

I'll be out of my mind

我會失去理智

and you'll be out of ideas pretty soon

很快的，你也會靈感枯竭

so let's spend the afternoon in a cold hot air balloon

所以讓我們把下午時光，都花在這個冰冷的熱氣球上面吧

leave your jacket behind

I can't wait to kiss the ground wherever we touch back down

我等不及要親吻地面，無論我們何時降落回到陸地上
