He is a million miles from a million dollars, but you can never spend his wealth.
God helps those who help themselves. 天助自助者，自助者天助。
One Republic - Preacher (牧师)
When I was a kid
I used to buy and sell gravity
I knew how to fly
And I could teach you for a fee
记得在天真的童年里，
地心引力曾唯我所控。
知道自由翱翔的秘诀，
给点好处我便会教你。
Broke every window in my hotel heart
I was only 5 years old but 12 years scarred
心灵像一间旅馆，飞翔时撞破了每一扇窗。
虽才年仅五岁，却已像少年般满身是伤。
But I'd hear the same voice
Echo in my mind
Said son you got an angel
To chase the devil at night
总是听到同样的声音，
在我的脑中不断回响。
他说孩子你心中的天使，
会在黑夜中为你消灾避祸。
When I was a kid
My grandfather was a preacher
He'd talk about God
Yeah he was something like a teacher
在我还年幼时，
祖父是名牧师。
常谈神的奥义，
如同一位良师。
He said God only helps those
Who learn to help themselves
He was a million miles from a million dollars
But you could never spend his wealth
他总是教我，
天助自助者。
虽然他身无分文，
却留给了我无尽的精神财富。
I took a little faith
And put it in a parking lot
I drove to a strange town
Full of have and have nots
我原本心存一丝信念，
并把它放在了停车场。
驶进那光怪陆离的城市，
人人都为了物质而挣扎。
And as I walked through that storybook life
I was looking for an angel to chase the devil at the light
Oh! oh! oh!
一路走来，事过境迁，所见之景，不断变换。
我却始终在寻找着，黑夜中的守护天使。
When I was a kid
My grandfather was a preacher
He'd talk about love
Yeah he was something like a teacher
在我还年幼时，
祖父是名牧师。
常谈爱的奥义，
如同一位良师。
He said God only helps those
Who learn to help themselves
He was a million miles from a million dollars
But you could never spend his wealth
他总是教我，
天助自助者。
虽然他身无分文，
却留给了我无尽的精神财富。
Wave
Put your hands up and hands down
挥舞你的双手，高举后再放下。
Wave
Put your hands up and hands down
挥舞你的双手，高举后再放下。
Wave
Put your hands up and hands down
挥舞你的双手，高举后再放下。
