[Refrain]
Oh Lord, won't you leave me
主呀，请你能让我就这样
Leave me on my knees?
让我就这样跪在地上？
Cause I belong to the ground now
因为我现在是属於地上的了
And it belongs to thee
而它则是属於你的
And oh Lord, won't you leave me
主呀，你不能让我就这样
Leave me just like this?
让我就这样呆著吗？
Cause I belong to the ground now
因为我属於大地了
I want no more than this
我不求别的
[Verse 1]
How I long for the autumn
我是多渴望秋天的来临呀
The sun keeps burning deep
太阳一直照
Every stone in this city keeps reminding me
城市里的每块石都让我想起
Can you protect me from what I want?
你能保护我，让我不受我渴望的所伤吗？
The love I let in, it left me so lost
我让我的爱进入我，他却使我迷失
[Chorus 1]
Mother, make me
大地之母，将我转生
Make me a big tall tree
转生作一棵高大树
So I can shed my leaves and let it blow through me
使我能看著落叶，看它们离开我
Mother, make me
大地之母，让我变成
Make me a big grey cloud
变成一团大黑云
So I can rain on you
我便能下雨到你身上
things I can't say out loud
掩盖我不能大声说的事
[Verse 2]
All these couples are kissing
情侣都在亲吻
And I can't stand the heat
我受不了这股热
I lost my shoes and left the party
我丢了我的鞋然后离开派对
I wander in the street
我在街上彷徨
[Verse 3]
I put my feet into the fountain
我把双脚浸在喷泉水里
The statues' all asleep
雕像全部都在睡觉
No use wishing on the water
想求水庇佑也没用了
It grants you no relief
它帮不了你了
[Chorus 2]
Mother, make me
大地之母，让我化身
Make me a bird of prey
化身成一只猎食之鸟
So I can rise above this, let it fall away
让我能飞翔天际，使烦恼消失
Mother, make me
大地之母，将我变作
Make me a song so sweet
将我变作一首极甜美之歌
Heaven trembles, fallen at our feet
使天堂都震惊，掉落到我们脚旁
[Refrain] (x2)
