Somebody wishing on a shooting star

有人对着流星许愿

Shooting star streaming 'cross the sky

流星坠落划过天际

You know it's just a meteorite

你说那只是颗陨石

People throwing pennies on a wishing well

人们朝许愿池抛出硬币

Wishing well's gonna run dry

然而许愿池就快要干涸

But I am gonna leave you tonight

就像我今晚就要离开你

Everybody talking about changing the world

每个人都在说改变世界

World ain't never gonna change

世界却从不会为谁改变

But you could always change it for me

但你可以随时为我改变

I'll shuck all the oysters and you keep the pearl

我会剥去所有的牡蛎，让你留下珍珠

I do my shucking and my jiving for free

我剥着牡蛎，尽情摇摆

Free like walking down the beach at night

就像行走在夜晚的沙滩

Throw a bunch of lines out to the way you want

珍珠在空中划出一道道美丽的弧线

Till you get it right

直到你接住它们

Sometimes you don't get it right

时而你没有接住

Sometimes you won't get it right

时而你不想接住

But when you do it's outta sight

当你再想去接时，它又消失不见

Sometimes you do get it right

有时你又正好接住它们，刚刚好
