In the centre of the field 球场的中央
stands the favorite player 站着人们最喜欢的球员
The ball comes floating in 皮球飞了过来
They say a silent prayer for him 人们都默默地为他祈祷
Fifty yards away 五十码的的距离
a minute left to go 他扫了一眼手表
The reflex at his watch 时间剩下一分钟
Oh, oh-oh-ohh 噢，噢-噢-噢噢
He cuts into the right 他切向右路
Gets past a defender 过了一名防守
A blur of blue and white 蓝白色模糊了他的双眼
The moment has suspended in time 时间好像静止
One man left to beat 前面只剩下一个人
He can see the goalkeeper's eyes 他能看见守门员的眼睛
There's magic in his feet 他的脚上有魔力
Oh, oh-oh-ohh 噢，噢-噢-噢噢
And a single ray, of sunlight 一束阳光
Reaches down to touch, the golden boy 射下来照在这个金子般的男孩身上
Seems to light his way, towards the net 似乎要给他照亮通往球网的路
In his mind, he sees the headlines 他的脑海中出现了
In the morning newspaper. 明天报纸上的标题
This'll be a day, they won't forget 这将是一个人们永远都无法忘记的日子
Now he's on his own 现在他独自面对球门
Completely out of control of it all 完全无法控制
The shot comes flying in 球飞了出去
Headed for the corner of the goal 朝着球门的一角
Bounces off the post 从立柱上弹了出去
He watches as it falls, oh-ohh 他亲眼看着它落了下来 噢-噢噢
Everyone will say 每个人都会说
"He should have passed the ball" “他应该把球传出去”
Now the crowd has gone 此刻观众已经散去
The stadium is empty 球场空无一人
Several hundred times 他将无数次
He will watch the replay on TV 看着那一幕在电视上反复播放
Many years from now 多年以后
When his name's recalled 当人们提起他的名字
Everyone will say 每个人都会说
"He should have passed the ball" “他应该传出那个球”
He should have passed the ball
他应该传出那个球
