For a Dancer (2014 Remaster)
Jackson Browne
For a Dancer (2014 Remaster) 歌詞
你的眼中總有著星星火光
Keep a fire burning in your eye
用它注視著那觸不可及的天空
Pay attention to the open sky
即使你永遠無法想像將會發生什麼
You never know what will be coming down
我忘記了我是如何失去了你
I dont remember losing track of you
你那舞動的身姿離我卻是越來越遠
You were always dancing in and out of view
我幻想著你依舊在我身邊
I must have thought youd always be around
總是扮著小丑讓這件事保持真實感
Always keeping things real by playing the clown
但現在,你終於徹底的消失不見了
Now youre nowhere to be found
我無法理解那寥無人煙的世界
嘗試去捕捉那些飄渺不定的事物總是使人犯難
I dont know what happens when people die
這就像一首縈繞在我耳邊
Cant seem to grasp it as hard as I try
我卻不能吟唱的樂曲
Its like a song I can hear playing right in my ear
但我卻不由自主的去嘗試
That I cant sing
我忍不住覺得這樣做很傻
I cant help listening
你總是會讓痛苦煙消雲散
And I cant help feeling stupid standing round
因為我知道你總是會用我們曾經一起跳過的舞
Crying as they ease you down
來釋放這種悲傷(舞動著)
Cause I know that youd rather we were dancing
不管命運如何選擇(雖說你無法做出什麼來改變)
Dancing our sorrow away (right on dancing)
但你只需要去展示你那華麗的舞步
No matter what fate chooses to play (theres nothing you can do about it anyway)
給你認識的所有人
Just do the steps that youve been shown
到最後這支舞將會成為你的一部分
By everyone youve ever known
不管(別人)如何去模仿你
Until the dance becomes your very own
都無法與你媲美
No matter how close to yours
到最後我只能看見你那曼妙的身姿
Anothers steps have grown
微火在人們的臉旁跳動
In the end there is one dance youll do alone
就讓你的禱告響徹天空吧
你不用去了解未來將會是什麼樣子的
Keep a fire for the human race
或許更好的明天將會到來
Let your prayers go drifting into space
或許依舊是如此的虛無縹緲
You never know what will be coming down
可能你已經發現這根本就是毫無意義的
Perhaps a better world is drawing near
但請千萬不要讓這種不確定性來改變你(世界總是不停不停的轉動著)
And just as easily it could all disappear
請繼續去創造著歡聲笑語吧
Along with whatever meaning you might have found
用你的舞步
Dont let the uncertainty turn you around (the world keeps turning around and around)
去滋潤別人那小小的希望
Go on and make a joyful sound
繼而去散落那屬於你自己的希望之種吧
Into a dancer you have grown
在你路過和抵達的地方
From a seed somebody else has thrown
在你停留過的地方
Go on ahead and throw some seeds of your own
都有可能有著你存在的理由
And somewhere between the time you arrive
即使你從未察覺
And the time you go
May lie a reason you were alive
But youll never know
