Take me back where the creek bends slow
Past the red barn and the fields we know
Where your front porch waits at the end of the lane
And a cup on the table keeps my place the same
The schoolhouse clock has lost a hand
But the bell still carries across the land
You'd wait from the kitchen flower on your sleeve
And tell me there's time if I'd only believe
Take me back where the creek bends slow
Past the red barn and the fields we know
Where your front porch waits at the end of the lane
And a cup on the table keeps my place the same
Years put miles in a traveler's shoes
Still I hear your laugh in the old lane's news
No matter how far these roads may run
That little town is where my heart comes from
Take me back where the creek bends slow
Past the red barn and the fields we know
Where your front porch waits at the end of the lane
And a cup on the table keeps my place the same
Your screen door still leans toward the yard
That same loose hinge sings
When the wind comes hard
Your screen door still leans toward the yard
That same loose hinge sings when the wind comes hard
At Miller's store they know your name
And save the paper by the window pane
译文
带我回到溪水缓缓转弯之处
经过那座红谷仓与熟悉的田野
小路尽头，门廊静静等候
桌上留着杯子，为我保留位置如初
校舍时钟，指针已缺其一
钟声却依旧，飘荡在大地
你在厨房等候，袖间别着小花
对我说只管相信，时光尚有余暇
带我回到溪水缓缓转弯之处
经过那座红谷仓与熟悉的田野
小路尽头，门廊静静等候
桌上留着杯子，为我保留位置如初
岁月漫漫，游子行过千里长路
旧路上的故事里，仍听见你的笑语
任凭前路漫漫，去往天涯各处
这座小镇，才是我心的归处
带我回到溪水缓缓转弯之处
经过那座红谷仓与熟悉的田野
小路尽头，门廊静静等候
桌上留着杯子，为我保留位置如初
纱门依旧斜斜向着庭院
那松动的合页，兀自低吟
当大风呼啸而至
纱门依旧斜斜向着庭院
那松动的合页，大风起时便轻唱
米勒小店，人人记得你的名字
窗边，还为你留着那份报纸
