It's been three months since the last one, and both that one and the first one people managed to guess correctly right away without me needing to reveal the meanings of any words. Perhaps this will be the third time that happens, but if it isn't, then I should restate that the rule is that I can reveal the meanings of one word at a time, unless revealing a word would give away the meaning of the whole line.

At the bottom of this post you will find some other hints.

Please spoiler your answers so that others can make their own guesses.

Now, without further ado...

The genre and era information led me to think it might be this song, and then I compared the chorus (which I know by heart thanks to many spirited karaoke sessions) to the structure of your translation and it seemed to fit perfectly. I also double checked by looking at words I would then expect to be similar since they are similar in the original and it all seemed to line up.
