When I was young and stupid my love
Left to be a rock and roll star
He told me please don't worry
Wise little smile that spoke so safely
He booked a one-way ticket
Out west that's where they make it
Six kids stuck in a bedsit
To sunswept poolside riches
He met a girl who wore Versace
Pink feather coats and jumbo jewellery
Gonna be a hoop phenomenon
He's gonna be Hakeem Olajuwan
He's got a gold Camaro
He said over the payphone
I try to keep my cool but
My life turns in slow motion
Bye bye baby blue
I wish you could see the wicked truth
Caught up in a rush it's killing you
Screaming at the sun you blow into
Curled up in a grip when we were us
Fingers in a fist like you might run
I settle for a ghost I never knew
Super paradise I held on to
But I settle for a ghost
When I was from in n.o.l.a no one
Left to be a rock and roll star
He'd stay and treat his lady
Give everything to his new baby
I miss him don't you blame me
That boy went stone cold crazy
Caught up in camera lust he's
Chasing that pappy pipe dreams
I know you don't but I
I know you don't but I still try
My thunder shook him down
My thunder came and shook him down
That girl is gone but I
That girl is gone but I still try
I think it's over now
The bullet hit but maybe not
I feel so ******* numb
It hits my head and I feel numb
My body's looking wrong
My body's looking wrong
My body's looking wrong
Bye bye baby blue
I wish you could see the wicked truth
Caught up in a rush it's killing you
Screaming at the sun you blow into
Curled up in a grip when we were us
Fingers in a fist like you might run
I settle for a ghost I never knew
Super paradise I held on to
But I settle for a ghost
译文
在我年轻又愚蠢的时候
我的爱人离开我去当摇滚巨星
他告诉我 不必担心
他脸上明智的微笑让我安心
他买了张单程的车票
西边（好莱坞）是他旅程的终点
一间卧室的六个孩子挤在那个地方
有机会成为泳池边晒着日光浴的富翁
他遇到了一个女孩
穿戴着范思哲的粉羽外套与大颗珠宝
他要成为篮球巨星了
他将成为奥拉朱旺
黄金科迈罗已是他的囊中之物
他在公共电话里对我说道
我努力保持冷静但是
我的生活仿佛转为慢镜
再见了我那有着婴儿般蓝色眼睛的爱人
希望你能看清这邪恶的真相
将你卷入的涌动激情会取走你的性命
朝着你突然闯入的烈日尖声喊叫吧
当我们仍未分开时我们蜷缩紧紧相拥
你的拳头如同你准备逃跑般紧绷
我爱上了一个我从未了解的幽灵
曾紧握着心中最美好的天堂
但我却爱上了一个幽灵
当我还住在路易斯安那州的新奥尔良时
没人会离开 去当一名摇滚巨星
他会留下来用心对待他的恋人
他会将他的一切都献给他新的孩子
别责备我 但我开始思念他了
那个男孩已变得冷血疯狂
沉浸在身处光彩四溢的镜头下的渴望里
他追逐着模糊的白日美梦
我知道你已不会再回头但我
我知道你已不会再回头但我仍不死心
我的怒火惊雷将他击倒
我的怒火惊雷终于到来将他击倒
那个女孩已经离去了但我
那个女孩已经离去了但我仍想挣扎
我想如今一切都结束了
子弹击中了 或者可能并没击中
我感觉真麻木啊
子弹击中了我的大脑 我只觉得麻木
我的身体变得不太对劲了
我的身体变得不太对劲了
我的身体变得不太对劲了
再见了我那婴儿蓝眼眸的爱人
希望你能看清这邪恶的真相
将你卷入的涌动激情会取走你的性命
朝着你突然闯入的烈日尖声喊叫吧
当我们仍未分开时我们蜷缩紧紧相拥
你的拳头如同你准备逃跑般紧绷
我爱上了一个我从未了解的幽灵
曾紧握着心中最美好的天堂
但我却爱上了一个幽灵
