The house got quiet after you went

你走后房子变得安静

Your boots still dusted by the door

你的靴子仍沾着灰尘放在门边

I don't ask heaven where you are

我不问上天你在哪里

I just sweep the floor

我只是继续打扫地板

Your room stayed the way you left it

你的房间保持着你离开时的样子

I never moved a thing

我从未移动任何东西

Even time learned to walk soft

连时间都学会了轻轻行走

When it hurt to breathe

当呼吸都变得疼痛时

I kept the light on through the night

我彻夜未熄那盏灯

Not because I knew you'd come

并非我笃定你将归家

But fathers don't turn lovers

但父亲不会变成情人

Just because the road gets long

只因为路途变得漫长

If you ever lose your way

倘若你迷途不知所往

Or forget where you belong

抑或忘却了归家的路

You'll see it burning from a distance

那光芒会在远方为你闪耀

I kept the light on

我始终亮着那盏灯

Your mother prayed harder than me

你的母亲比我祈祷得更为虔诚

She said "God counts every tear"

她说“神明会数算每一滴泪”

Now a chair stays empty

如今，空椅徒留

But a faith and still right here

但一种信仰，仍在此处坚守

Some nights my hands shake holding scripture

有时夜深，我手执经卷，心绪难平

Some nights I just sit still

有时夜深，我只是静默无言

Waiting ain't weakness son

等待并非懦弱，孩子

It's an act of will

它是一种意志的坚守

I kept the light on through the dark

黑暗中我始终亮着灯

When hope felt almost gone

当希望几乎消散

I learned silence has a language

我领悟到，寂静自有深意

That only love speaks on

唯有爱方能解读

If the world breaks your heart

若这世界让你心碎

Like it broke mine once

如同它曾击碎我的心

You'll know this house remembers you

你当知晓，这屋子仍念着你

I kept the light on

我始终亮着那盏灯

I don't need apologies

我无需你的歉意

I don't need reasons why

我无需追问缘由

The door don't ask questions

门扉静默无言

It just opens wide

它始终敞开着

I kept the light on every year

每年我都为你留一盏灯

Through the winters and the falls

穿越寒冬与金秋

If you come back a different man

若你以陌生模样归来

I still know who you are

我依然认得你本来的模样

And if God calls me home before

若上帝在我听闻你呼唤我名之前

I hear you say my name

便将我召回天家 我仍听见你唤我姓名

Tell him I waited faithful

请告诉祂 我始终虔诚守候

And I kept the light on

并一直亮着那盏灯

The night don't scare me anymore

黑夜已不再令我畏惧

I've done my part

我已尽我所能

There's a lamp in the window

窗边依然亮着一盏灯

And peace in my heart

我的心中亦充满了宁静
