Salty And sweet

Salty and Sweet—John Smith
I'm a fishing girl, just a lonely girl
我只是個孤獨的漁家女
The Town in which I live is breaking water
我發現最近小鎮有洪水的跡象
I told my Mother, my violent brother
我跑去告訴我母親，甚至我粗暴的兄長
All they give to me is reason to leave
他們只是叫我離開（偏不）

想想我的驚訝吧，眼眸彷彿一瞬失色
Imagine my surprise, a pair of ancient eyes
面龐如陸地飽經滄桑
Set into a face as old as land
他從海水中起身，就站在我身前

他說：“不行呢，粗糙的沙礫會劃傷我。”
He stands in front of, he came out of the sea
他徐徐走回，這時的空氣鹹澀又甜膩
He says it hurts his skin to touch the sand
他回眸一瞥，像是，邀請？

我任由雙腿帶著，走向了他，這時的空氣鹹澀又甜膩
He crawls back into the sea, the air is salty and sweet
我會留下我的裙子，作為對家人的一個解釋
A backward glance by way of invitation
我的他一向對衣物不以為意，反正他又不穿

他從不因這些瑣屑之事而困擾
I'm in now up to my knees, the air is salty and sweet
因為他本身就像絲緞一樣柔軟，像初乳一樣純淨
I'll leave my dress by way of explanation
更比他所不屑的陸地要堅硬

My man don't care for clothes, the things he does not own
They never trouble him, never give him grief
'Cause he's as soft as silk, as pure as baby milk
And harder than earth that he scorns
