Famous Blue Raincoat

It's four in the morning the end of December

I'm writing you now just to see if you're better

New York is cold but I like where I'm living

There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening
因为我住的克林顿街，彻夜都响着音乐
I hear that you're building

your little house deep in the desert

You're living for nothing now
你现在真的一无所求了吗
I hope you're keeping some kind of record

Yes and Jane came by with a lock of your hair
简来过，带着你的一缕发结
She said that you gave it to her

That night that you planned to go clear

Did you ever go clear

Ah the last time we saw you

you looked so much older

Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder

You'd been to the station to meet every train
以前，你常去车站，等遍每一趟火车
And you came home without Lili Marlene

And you treated my woman
你还把我的女人
to a flake of your life
当作你生命中的一段插曲
And when she came back she was nobody's wife

Well I see you there with the rose in your teeth
我想像着你嘴里衔着玫瑰专门窃取爱情
One more thin gypsy thief

Well I see Jane's awake --
噢，简现在还醒着
She sends her regards
她让我代她向你问好
And what can I tell you my brother my killer
可我还能说些什么呢，我的兄弟，我的情敌
What can I possibly say

I guess I forgive you

I'm glad you stood in my way
告诉你我很高兴你曾走进我生命
If you ever come by here for Jane or for me
如果你以后来作客，看看简，或是我
Your enemy is sleeping and his woman is free
我要让你知道，我对你的敌意已然沉睡已对那个放不下的女人释然
Yes and thanks for the trouble you took from her eyes
其实，我要感谢你，是你拂去了她眼中的烦恼
I thought it was there for good so I never tried
而我，以为那天生如此，而并没有走入她内心深处
And Jane came by with a lock of your hair
简来过，带着你的一缕发结
She said that you gave it to her
她说那是你送的
That night that you planned to go clear
在你决定把一切事情理清的那天晚上
Sincerely,
你的挚友
