[04:56.01]	they're basketing in love's mighty presents
[05:01.84]	John and Josie don't have time
[05:08.48]	they're basket in love's mighty presents

歌词翻译

[00:00.00]	大卫·罗斯 - 约翰与乔茜
[00:23.50]	（强尼是）约翰与乔茜的独子
[00:28.73]	年轻英俊，（却也）放纵不羁
[00:34.08]	（像许多普通孩子那样，）18岁那年去部队参军（接受磨练），
[00:39.24]	18岁那年从部队退伍，
[00:44.96]	参加工作后，不断受挫跳槽，
[00:50.31]	经历过飘泊（他乡的无助），爱情（的失意），
[00:55.67]	（漫长的）7年（过）后，年轻的强尼回到家乡，（回到父母身旁）。
[01:06.35]	但是，（此时）强尼的身体并不是很好，
[01:11.13]	很快，（他便）被送往医院接受治疗，
[01:16.91]	（刚开始，夫妻二人以为）几天（就能出院），（没想到）几周（后病情急转直下）。
[01:22.23]	眼看强尼一天天消瘦下去，
[01:27.60]	乔茜只能（强忍悲伤）劝慰约翰要冷静，
[01:33.14]	（无奈的）约翰哭求上帝，希望能把孩子留在他们身边。
[01:38.27]	（但事与愿违，）强尼在25岁那年，（流星划过夜空般）离开人世。
[01:42.89]	（夫妻二人）承受着（突如其来的）失子之痛，情感的空洞（顿时）无法愈合，
[01:50.60]	爱的力量无与伦比，
[01:55.71]	约翰和乔茜脑海中全是强尼，
[02:01.10]	（二人眼前仿佛还是）去年生日宴会上，强尼灿烂微笑（的场景），
[02:06.60]	但这一切只是幻觉，强尼（现在猝然）离开了他们，
[02:11.77]	永远不会再回来，永远不会了。
[02:16.92]	痛失我爱，希望不再，
[02:22.08]	（夫妻二人）被巨痛、愧疚，甚至是愤怒深深包裹着，
[02:27.55]	生活也因此黯然，了无意义。
[02:54.00]	强尼已经走了两年，（生活如流水一般，在平淡与安静中继续着）
[02:55.88]	（直到有一天，一个陌生的）电话在黑暗的角落响起，
[03:04.57]	（天地之大，世间万物来来去去，皆有定数，）
[03:09.43]	约翰很清楚电话那头不再是已经离世的强尼，
[03:14.99]	但他还是接起了电话，
[03:20.56]	（只听到，电话那头）一个遥远的声音，对约翰说，
[03:25.24]	有一个孩子，强尼的孩子，
[03:30.61]	（可怜的他只有）两个月大，双眼无神，
[03:36.44]	无人认领，
[03:40.99]	也没有父母疼爱，（所以，找到电话，是否可以）留给约翰与乔茜（抚养）。
[03:47.15]	乔茜一把将电话从约翰手里夺过来，
[03:52.29]	夫妻二人（激动地）说：可以，可以，可以。
[03:58.01]	所以，年过60的约翰和乔茜，
[04:03.02]	又重新开始抚养照顾起一个婴儿来，
[04:08.28]	还为他起名叫保罗·安东尼奥，
[04:13.79]	（要是强尼还在世的话，）也一定会非常爱这个孩子。
[04:19.49]	爱的力量无与伦比，
[04:24.40]	约翰和乔茜又想起了他们的强尼，
[04:29.82]	同样的爱，让他们天人分离，
[04:35.09]	又是同样的爱，重新将他们汇聚（天之大，岁月轮回，夫妻二人，把对强尼的爱，重新倾注到了怀里的他）。
[04:40.21]	当然，他们偶尔也担心，不幸会再次降临，
[04:45.77]	担心在保罗长大前再一次失去他。
[04:51.03]	看起来，悲剧不会再次上演，
[04:56.01]	约翰和乔茜在孩子的成长中老去，
[05:01.84]	（尽管）二人离生命的尽头越来越近，
[05:08.48]	他们现在的生活（却）温馨而满足，爱意浓浓，（夫妻二人在大爱无痕中老去......）
