For a Dancer (2014 Remaster)
Jackson Browne
For a Dancer (2014 Remaster) 歌词
你的眼中总有着星星火光
Keep a fire burning in your eye
用它注视着那触不可及的天空
Pay attention to the open sky
即使你永远无法想象将会发生什么
You never know what will be coming down
我忘记了我是如何失去了你
I don't remember losing track of you
你那舞动的身姿离我却是越来越远
You were always dancing in and out of view
我幻想着你依旧在我身边
I must have thought you'd always be around
总是扮着小丑让这件事保持真实感
Always keeping things real by playing the clown
但现在,你终于彻底的消失不见了
Now you're nowhere to be found
我无法理解那寥无人烟的世界
尝试去捕捉那些飘渺不定的事物总是使人犯难
I don't know what happens when people die
这就像一首萦绕在我耳边
Can't seem to grasp it as hard as I try
我却不能吟唱的乐曲
It's like a song I can hear playing right in my ear
但我却不由自主的去尝试
That I can't sing
我忍不住觉得这样做很傻
I can't help listening
你总是会让痛苦烟消云散
And I can't help feeling stupid standing round
因为我知道你总是会用我们曾经一起跳过的舞
Crying as they ease you down
来释放这种悲伤(舞动着)
Cause I know that you'd rather we were dancing
不管命运如何选择(虽说你无法做出什么来改变)
Dancing our sorrow away (right on dancing)
但你只需要去展示你那华丽的舞步
No matter what fate chooses to play (there's nothing you can do about it anyway)
给你认识的所有人
Just do the steps that you've been shown
到最后这支舞将会成为你的一部分
By everyone you've ever known
不管(别人)如何去模仿你
Until the dance becomes your very own
都无法与你媲美
No matter how close to yours
到最后我只能看见你那曼妙的身姿
Another's steps have grown
微火在人们的脸旁跳动
In the end there is one dance you'll do alone
就让你的祷告响彻天空吧
你不用去了解未来将会是什么样子的
Keep a fire for the human race
或许更好的明天将会到来
Let your prayers go drifting into space
或许依旧是如此的虚无缥缈
You never know what will be coming down
可能你已经发现这根本就是毫无意义的
Perhaps a better world is drawing near
但请千万不要让这种不确定性来改变你(世界总是不停不停的转动着)
And just as easily it could all disappear
请继续去创造着欢声笑语吧
Along with whatever meaning you might have found
用你的舞步
Don't let the uncertainty turn you around (the world keeps turning around and around)
去滋润别人那小小的希望
Go on and make a joyful sound
继而去散落那属于你自己的希望之种吧
Into a dancer you have grown
在你路过和抵达的地方
From a seed somebody else has thrown
在你停留过的地方
Go on ahead and throw some seeds of your own
都有可能有着你存在的理由
And somewhere between the time you arrive
即使你从未察觉
And the time you go
May lie a reason you were alive
But you'll never know
