Bobby Darwin's daughter looks up from the bible
Putri Bobby Darwin menatap dari Alkitab
She's been reading to the clock on her dirty wall of a double wide, its 3 am.
Dia sudah membaca di depan jam di dinding kotor rumahnya yang lebar, sudah jam 3 pagi.
Her husband’s on the town shooting pool or foolin’ round,
Suaminya sedang di luar bermain biliar atau bersenang-senang,
Or all of the above it doesn't matter anymore,
Atau semua itu, tidak ada yang penting lagi sekarang,
She can't get through to him,
Dia tidak bisa menjangkau suaminya,
Seems like only yesterday they were married in a chapel.
Seolah baru kemarin mereka menikah di sebuah kapel.
Candlelight the whole nine yards,
Dengan lilin romantis dan semua itu,
Honeymoon in Vegas, they settled down.
Bulan madu di Vegas, mereka pun menetap.
Now it's lonely nights and hungry kids,
Sekarang malam-malam sepi dan anak-anak kelaparan,
She just keeps on looking for the life that's not the life she's living now.
Dia terus mencari kehidupan yang bukan kehidupan yang dijalaninya sekarang.

Bobby Darwin's daughter used to ask her father
Putri Bobby Darwin biasa bertanya pada ayahnya
Where Santa Clause and babies and God came from,
Dari mana Santa Claus, bayi-bayi, dan Tuhan berasal,
And as she's gotten older all those easy
Dan seiring dia tumbuh dewasa, semua jawaban mudah itu
Answers are somewhere between here and kingdom come,
Entah di mana antara sini dan kerajaan surga,
And in her darkest hours Bobby Darwin's daughter wishes she could go back when,
Dan di saat-saat tergelapnya, Putri Bobby Darwin berharap bisa kembali ke masa itu,
She'd ask where God came from instead of wondering where he's been.
Dia akan bertanya dari mana Tuhan berasal, bukan bertanya ke mana Dia pergi.

Putri Bobby Darwin mengantar anak-anak pulang
In the pouring rain sudden skid and just like that
Di tengah hujan deras, tiba-tiba mobil tergelincir, dan seketika itu
She's clinging to her life,
Dia berpegang pada kehidupannya,
Her husband rushes in the tiny room
Suaminya berlari masuk ke ruangan kecil
And through his tears whispers I love you,
Dan melalui air matanya berbisik, "Aku mencintaimu,"
Baby please don't leave me now, you're my only life,
"Sayang, tolong jangan tinggalkan aku sekarang, kau satu-satunya hidupku,"
He bows his head and prays aloud this one thing I promise,
Dia menundukkan kepala dan berdoa keras, "Satu hal ini aku janjikan,"
If I could get just one more chance to be the man
Jika aku bisa mendapatkan satu kesempatan lagi untuk jadi pria
I should have been I'll be that man,
Yang seharusnya aku jadi, aku akan jadi pria itu,
She awakens to another world, stares into his grateful eyes of love,
Dia terbangun ke dunia yang lain, menatap mata penuh syukur dan cinta itu,
she smiles at him he takes her hand.
Dia tersenyum padanya, dia menggenggam tangannya.

Answers are somewhere between here and kingdom come,
Entah di mana antara sini dan kerajaan surga,
And in her darkest hours Bobby Darwin's daughter never saw till now that
Dan di saat-saat tergelapnya, Putri Bobby Darwin baru menyadari sekarang bahwa
She was wrong about where God came from and that he's been here all along.
Dia salah tentang dari mana Tuhan berasal dan bahwa Dia sudah ada di sini sepanjang waktu.
