Could I act like you, and put a smile on my face Not even for a second, would I lie to myself Too many things are missing, and there’s a tear in my eye It’s not a question or an answer, but it will change your mind
We’ll be the same tomorrow ‘Cause we’ve all been painted by numbers We dance and eyes will follow You said it was love I said I’d like you to be mine
na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
I couldn’t act like you, but I can love like you do Between us there is something, I can’t explain it to you
We’ll be the same tomorrow ‘Cause we all been painted by numbers We dance and eyes will follow You said it was love I got what I need to get by
We’ll be the same tomorrow ‘Cause we all been painted by numbers We dance and eyes will follow You said it was love I said I’d like you to be mine
na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
We’ll be the same tomorrow ‘Cause we all been painted by numbers We dance and eyes will follow
I sing a song for sorrow (I sing a song for sorrow) ‘Cause we all been painted by numbers We dance and eyes will follow You said it was love I got what I need to get by

This morning I got up after 8:00
I dressed myself and washed my face
I didn’t have anything for breakfast
My papa mama urged me to shut the door
I saw a taxi running to me
but I rushed to the bus stop
the number’s wrong
That is all,my dear teacher
And I apologize again for being late
This morning I got up after 8:00
I dressed myself and washed my face
I didn’t have my love soda cracker
My book was left on my confused desk
I saw some trees’ buding one night
when sun’s rising from the east sky
Good day,my dear teacher
And beg your mercy for a happy day
This morning my alarm clock waked me up
I searched my kitchen for all the cups
I was so busy that I didn’t realize
that sadness,happiness are everywhere
I saw some trees’ buding one night
as the boy who’s day by day growing high
That is me,a general boy
I’m gonna be a man just after tonight
Gonna be a man just after tonight
From today on I can’t deny the duty of mine
From today on I have to make my hairstyle shine
From today on I’ll try to get a lisence to drive
for a teenager rushed to be an adult tonight
here’s a nail in the door 门上有个钉子
and there’s glass on the lawn 草坪上有块玻璃
tacks on the floor 地板上有条裂缝
and the tv is on 电视也在播放
and i always sleep with my guns 我睡觉以枪为伴
when you’re gone 在你离开以后
there’s a blade by the bed 床上有一把刀
and a phone in my hand 手里握着电话
a dog on the floor 狗趴在地板上
and some cash on the nightstand 床头有些零钱
when i’m all alone the dreaming stops 当我孤独，梦也停止
and i just can’t stand 我无法抵抗
what should i do i’m just a little baby 我仅仅是个孩子能够作什么
what if the lights go out and maybe 当灯光熄灭
and then the wind just starts to moan 风声呻吟
outside the door he followed me home 门外，他随我回家
well goodnight moon 晚安，月亮
i want the sun 我渴望太阳
if it’s not here soon 如果不能马上看到太阳
i might be done 我会倒下
no it won’t be too soon ’til i say 但是我不会马上看到太阳
goodnight moon 直到我说，晚安，月亮
there’s a shark in the pool 骗局隐藏在池塘里
and a witch in the tree 美丽女人隐藏在树上
a crazy old neighbour and he’s been watching me 一个疯狂的老邻居曾经注视着我
and there’s footsteps loud and strong coming down the hall 大厅传来响亮的脚步声
something’s under the bed 某些东西藏在床下
now it’s out in the hedge 现在已经明朗
there’s a big black crow sitting on my window ledge我的窗台上停着一只乌鸦
and i hear something scratching through the wall 大厅传来聒噪的声音
oh what should i do i’m just a little baby 我仅仅是个孩子能够做什么
what if the lights go out and maybe 当灯光熄灭
i just hate to be all alone 我憎恨孤独
outside the door he followed me home 门外，他跟随我回家
now goodnight moon 晚安，月亮
i want the sun 我渴望太阳
if it’s not here soon 如果太阳不能马上出现
i might be done 我或许会倒下
no it won’t be too soon ’til i say 但是太阳不能马上出现直到我说
goodnight moon 晚安，月亮
well you’re up so high 你离我太远
how can you save me 如何能够拯救我
when the dark comes here 当黑暗来临
tonight to take me up 带我离开
the mouth from woke 醒来之后的嘴唇
and into bed where it kisses my face 亲吻我的脸
and eats my hand 舔着我的手
oh what should i do i’m just a little baby 我仅仅是个孩子能够作甚么
what if the lights go out and maybe
and then the wind just starts to moan
outside the door he followed me home
now goodnight moon
i want the sun
if it’s not here soon
i might be done
no it won’t be too soon ’til i say
goodnight moon
