英文歌曲：简单生活 Shawn Colvin - Sunny Came Home

Sunny came home to her favorite room

Sunny sat down in the kitchen

She opened a book and a box of tools

Sunny came home with a mission¹

She says days go by I'm hypnotized

I'm walking on a wire

I close my eyes and fly out of my mind

Into the fire

Sunny came home with a list of names

She didn't believe in transcendence
It's time for a few small repairs she said
Sunny came home with a vengeance²

She says days go by I don't know why
I'm walking on a wire
I close my eyes and fly out of my mind
Into the fire

Get the kids and bring a sweater
Dry is good and wind is better
Count the years, you always knew it
Strike a match, go on and do it

Days go by I'm hypnotized
I'm walking on a wire
I close my eyes and fly out of my mind
Into the fire
Light the sky and hold on tight³
The world is burning down
She's out there on her own and she's alright
Sunny came home
Sunny came home...
