Pretty Boy
M2M

I lie awake at night    晚上我躺在床上没有一点睡意
See things in black and white   世界对我来说只有黑与白
I've only got you inside my mind  你的形象无时无刻不在我脑中闪动
You know you have made me blind   我的眼里只有你

I lie awake and pray    我清醒地躺在床上祈祷
that you will look my way   祈祷你会看见我
I have all this longing 1 in my heart  我的心中充满渴望
I knew it right from the start   一开始我就知道

Oh my pretty pretty boy I love you  我的漂亮男孩，我爱你
Like I never ever loved no one before you 在你之前我从未这样爱过一个人
Pretty pretty boy of mine   我的漂亮男孩
Just tell me you love me too   告诉我你也爱我
Oh my pretty pretty boy I need you  我的漂亮男孩，我需要你
Oh my pretty pretty boy I do   我的漂亮男孩，是真的
Let me inside make me stay right beside you 让我走进你，留在你身旁

I used to write your name   我曾写下你的名字
And put it in a frame    并把它框起来
And sometime I think I hear you call   有时我觉得
Right from my bedroom wall  就在我房间里听到了你的呼唤

You stay a little while    你待了一会儿
And touch me with your smile    用你的微笑打动我的心
And what can I say to make you mine  我该说什么才能赢得你的心
To reach out for you in time  才能及时掳获你

Oh my pretty boy, say you love me too. 我的漂亮男孩，说你也爱我

Oh my pretty pretty boy I love you  我的漂亮男孩，我爱你
Like I never ever loved no one before you 在你之前我从未这样爱过一个人
Pretty pretty boy of mine   我的漂亮男孩
Just tell me you love me too   告诉我你也爱我
Oh my pretty pretty boy I need you  我的漂亮男孩我需要你
Oh my pretty pretty boy I do   我的漂亮男孩，是真的
Let me inside make me stay right beside you 让我走进你，留在你身旁（重复）“Pony”出自Kasey Chambers第三张专辑“Wayward angel”（《任性天使》）。在这张专辑里，一度走在乡村乐和摇滚乐交接点的kasey，音乐路逐渐拓宽并呈多元化趋势。专辑中，高音危危欲坠的“荆棘鸟”不见了，Kasey开始朝舒缓和流行化发展，而她对节奏、对鼓点的把握似乎也比以前沉稳许多。

“Pony”以一个小孩的视角，描绘了只有小女孩才会做的爱情梦：“拥有漂亮的‘小矮马’或可爱的‘小宝宝’、做自由自在的‘牛仔’或端庄贤惠的‘淑女’”——这都是女孩子托腮做白日梦时对未来的美好期盼，但无论做什么梦，都离不开最真、最痴、最纯、最可爱的梦——我那一天会不会成为你的新娘？

      Lyrics 2

When I grow up I want a pony
I'm gonna ride her from dust til dawn
I'm gonna brush her mane
 
Pony
 
And feed her sugar cane
And keep her in safe from the storm

If I had a pony
I wonder could I be your girl

When I grow up I want a baby
I'm gonna name it after Ralph Stanley
And I sure won't mind if it cries all night
Just as long as it looks like me

If I had a baby
I wonder could I be your girl

Yodelay he yodeloh oh
You rock my world
Yodelay he yodeloh
When I grow up I wanna be your girl

When I grow up I want a cowboy
With dust all over his jeans
With a horse named Jack
And a ten-gallon hat
He is nice but looks so mean

If you were a cowboy
I wonder could I be your girl

 
ten-gallon hat
 
Yodelay he yodeloh oh
You rock my world
Yodelay he yodeloh
When I grow up I wanna be your girl

When I grow up I'll be a lady
All my rings will be made of gold
I'll put flowers in my room
I'll wear perfume 3
I won't listen to rock n roll

If I was a lady
I wonder could I be your girl

Yodelay he yodeloh oh
You rock my world
Yodelay he yodeloh
When I grow up I wanna be your girl

When I grow up I want a pony
When I grow up I want a baby
When I grow up I want a cowboy
When I grow up I'll be a lady
