After some time

过了一段时间

I finally made up my mind

我终于下定了决心

She is the girl

她就是那个女孩

And I really want to make her mine

我真的想让她属于我

I'm searching everywhere

我到处寻找

To find her again

为了再次找到她

To tell her I love her

告诉她我爱她

And I'm sorry about the things I've done

为我所做的一切向她道歉

I find her standing in front of a church

我发现她站在教堂前

The only place in town where I didn't search

镇上我唯一没找过的地方

She looks so happy in her wedding dress

她穿着婚纱看起来如此幸福

But she's crying while she's saying this

但她说这些的时候却在哭泣

Boy I've missed your kisses all the time but this is

孩子，我一直都在想念你的吻，但是

25 minutes too late

晚了25分钟

Though you travelled so far boy I'm sorry your are

即使你跋涉千里，孩子，我很抱歉，你还是

25 minutes too late

晚了25分钟

Against the wind

顶着风

I'm going home again

我再次回到家

Wishing me back

希望我能回到

To the time when we were more than friends

我们超越朋友关系的那段时光

But still I see her in front of the church

但我仍然看到她站在教堂前

The only place in town where I didn't search

镇上我唯一没找过的地方

She looked so happy in her wedding dress

她穿着婚纱看起来如此幸福

But she's crying while she's saying this

Boy I've missed your kisses all the time but this is

Though you travelled so far boy I'm sorry your are

Out in the streets

在街上

Places where hungry hearts have nothing to eat

饥渴的心灵无处可依的地方

Inside my head

在我的脑海里

Still I can hear the words she said

我仍然能听到她说的话

Boy I've missed your kisses all the time but this is
