Brown Study

I was half awake
我半梦半醒着
Flying down the interstate
车儿在州际公路上飞驰
Mesmerized by power lines and blighted dour estates
看那高耸的电线杆和破败的房屋 多么迷人
And all the things I just felt
我感到种种情感充斥着内心
Somewhere in the rust belt
在这铁锈地带（美国北部衰败的工业区）
Wondering how many times can a heart melt
我心想 一颗心究竟能融化多少次呀
Still hoping your season will start well
如论如何 还是希望你一切安好
Pardon my semantics
原谅我笨拙的言语吧
It's somewhat pedantic
总是这样文绉绉的
But your outline against the Atlantic
但你背对着大西洋的轮廓
Well it's idyllic and highly romantic
是那么诗情画意 浪漫至极
In a dream
在梦里
Oh I took several transfers to the G Line
我换乘了好几次地铁 坐在G号线上
Now Bushwick Inlet's just to our right
Bushwick Inlet公园就在我们的右边
I'd never seen Manhattan at night
我从未见过曼哈顿的夜色
I said it's lovely, you said that's right
我说它应该很美吧 你说是的
Sidewalks, brownstones, and street posts
人行道 褐色砂石建筑 还有街边的灯柱
They line my dreams in complete rows
它们在我的梦里成行地排列着
On cold days she wears a pea coat
天冷时她常穿一件双排扣大衣
While staring out from the east coast
从东海岸向远方眺望
A furtive glance as the fields roll
偷偷瞥一眼那翻滚的田野
A stray outsider that she knows
荒芜而清冷 唯有一流浪汉
Could I be someone you need most
我会是你最需要的那个人吗
When I'm so far from the east coast
但此时你我相隔却如此遥远
