In spite of the name, Independence, Kansas
Meskipun namanya, Independence, Kansas
Didn't grow many wild roses
Tidak banyak menumbuhkan mawar liar
But she was young and restless
Tapi dia masih muda dan gelisah
And I loved her though holding her down was hopeless
Dan aku mencintainya meski mencoba menahannya sia-sia
I wanted her to say she couldn't live without
Aku ingin dia bilang dia tak bisa hidup tanpaku
The life I had to offer but all she could talk about
Kehidupan yang bisa kutawarkan, tapi semua yang bisa dia bicarakan
Was faraway dreams, cities she'd never seen
Adalah mimpi jauh, kota-kota yang belum pernah dia lihat
How do I find that girl when she could be
Bagaimana aku menemukan gadis itu saat dia bisa jadi

Out there anywhere she just up and left
Di luar sana, entah di mana, dia tiba-tiba pergi
She didn't leave a forwarding address
Dia tidak meninggalkan alamat baru
Or a trail for my lonely heart to follow
Atau jejak untuk hatiku yang sepi mengikuti
Which one of those four winds should I go chasing
Angin mana dari empat arah yang harus kutuju
She could be in a million places I guess
Dia bisa berada di jutaan tempat, kurasa
Up north, down south, back east, out west
Ke utara, ke selatan, ke timur, ke barat

She could be up in the Windy City
Dia mungkin ada di Windy City
Where the world spins a little bit faster
Di mana dunia berputar sedikit lebih cepat
Or gettin' a tan down in Miami that might be where I'd catch her
Atau berjemur di Miami, mungkin di situlah aku bisa menemukannya
Maybe back in Virginia, her cousin lives there
Mungkin kembali ke Virginia, sepupunya tinggal di sana
Out in Arizona, she'd fit in anywhere
Di Arizona, dia akan cocok di mana saja
It's anyone's guess where she came to rest
Siapa pun bisa menebak di mana dia beristirahat
My one chance for happiness is
Kesempatan satu-satunya untuk kebahagiaanku adalah

Out there anywhere she just up and left
Di luar sana, entah di mana, dia tiba-tiba pergi
She didn't leave a forwarding address
Dia tidak meninggalkan alamat baru
Or a trail for my lonely heart to follow
Atau jejak untuk hatiku yang sepi mengikuti
Which one of those four winds should I go chasing
Angin mana dari empat arah yang harus kutuju
She could be in a million places I guess
Dia bisa berada di jutaan tempat, kurasa
Up north, down south, back east, out west
Ke utara, ke selatan, ke timur, ke barat

I'm sitting here at a four-way intersection
Aku duduk di sini di persimpangan empat jalan
Praying Lord won't you point me in the right direction
Berdoa, Tuhan, tunjukkan aku arah yang benar
She could be
Dia bisa jadi

Out there anywhere she just up and left
Di luar sana, entah di mana, dia tiba-tiba pergi
She didn't leave a forwarding address
Dia tidak meninggalkan alamat baru
Or a trail for my lonely heart to follow
Atau jejak untuk hatiku yang sepi mengikuti
Which one of those four winds should I go chasing
Angin mana dari empat arah yang harus kutuju
She could be in a million places I guess
Dia bisa berada di jutaan tempat, kurasa
Up north, down south, back east, out west
Ke utara, ke selatan, ke timur, ke barat
Up north, down south, back east, out west
Ke utara, ke selatan, ke timur, ke barat
