From Silver Lake

Did you see our brother
你看到我們的兄弟了嗎
He was here the other day
前幾天他還在這兒
But he only came to say that he was leaving
但他只是來說他要走了
Did you see his lady
你看到他的女人了嗎
She was looking where he'd gone
她在找他去哪兒了
But she wasn't letting on that she was grieving
但是她沒有表現出她很悲傷

She's bound to go
她一定會走的
Perhaps she'll find him waiting for his boat in some city far away
也許她會發現他在某個遙遠的城市等著他的船
She's bound to go
她一定會走的

Lately I remember afternoons of smoke and wine
最近我想起了菸酒瀰漫的下午
There was nothing we could find but peace and pleasure
除了和平與快樂，什麼也沒有
And with a smile he told me
他微笑著告訴我
That he wanted just to be on his way across the sea no man can measure
他只想踏上遠渡重洋的旅程

He won't be back
他不會回來了
And the sun may find him sleeping in the dust of some ruin far away
太陽也會發現他睡在遠處廢墟的塵土裡
He won't be back
他不會回來了

Early today as I watched while the skyline was shaking
今天一大早，我看著天際線在晃動
I heard a rumbling
我聽到隆隆的聲音
Early today the mechanical city was waking
今天一大早，這座機械城市正在甦醒
And I ran out stumbling mumbling
我跌跌撞撞地跑出去，喃喃自語
Out through the laughter of children and dogs
孩子和狗一同發出笑聲

Did you see our brother
你看見我們的兄弟了嗎
He was here the other day
前幾天他還在這裡
But he only came to say that he can't breathe here
但他只是來說他在這裡不能呼吸
Did you see his lady
你看到他的女人了嗎
She was reaching for his hand
她伸手去抓他的手
Just as if to tell her man that she can 't either
就好像告訴她的男人，她也不能呼吸了

They're bound to go
他們一定會走的
And the sun may find me running after them
太陽會發現我在追趕他們
Seeing something far away
看到遠處的東西
We won't be back
我們不會再回來了
