Time
Tom Waits
Time 歌詞
Well the smart money's on Harlow and the moon is in the street
投資精英們會聚於哈洛區,月色如水傾瀉街頭
And the shadow boys are breaking all the laws
邪惡的男孩們正肆意妄為
And you're east of East Saint Louis and the wind is making speeches
你在東聖路易斯之東,聽咆哮的狂風
And the rain sounds like a round of applause
伴著猶若掌聲雷動的暴雨
And Napoleon is weeping in a carnival saloon
狂歡的酒吧,拿破崙無聲哭泣著
His invisible fiancee's in the mirror
他那隱約不現的愛人如鏡花水月
And the band is going home, it's raining hammers, it's raining nails
樂隊迎著如刀似箭的大雨踏上歸途
And it's true there's nothing left for him down here
是的,沒有任何東西為他停留
And it's time time time, and it's time time time
這是時光,時光,時光
And it's time time time that you love
這是時光,你所珍愛的時光
And it's time time time
這就是時光,時光,時光
And they all pretend they're orphans and their memory's like a train
他們都扮作孤兒,假裝記憶猶如火車
You can see it getting smaller as it pulls away
一列正在駛離,慢慢消逝不見的火車
And the things you can't remember tell the things you can't forget
褪色發黃的記憶裡暗含著你難以忘懷的事
That history puts a saint in every dream
那些過往在每個夢裡留下一位天使
Well she said she'd stick around until the bandages came off
她說她會一直陪伴直至傷口癒合
But these mama's boys just don't know when to quit
但這些乖孩子卻不知何時放手
And Mathilda asks the sailors 'Are those dreams or are those prayers?'
瑪蒂爾達問水手們:那是夢境還是期盼?
So close your eyes, son, and this won't hurt a bit
閉上你的眼睛吧,孩子,沒人傷害你
Oh it's time time time, and it's time time time
啊,這是時光,時光,時光。這是時光,時光,時光
And it's time time time that you love
這是時光,你所珍愛的時光
And it's time time time
這就是時光,時光,時光
Well things are pretty lousy for a calendar girl
漂亮女孩總是招惹無端紛擾
The boys just dive right off the cars and splash into the street
男孩們跳下車子,衝入街頭
And when they 're on a roll she pulls a razor from her boot
當他們正要得逞時,她從靴子裡拔出剃刀
And a thousand pigeons fall around her feet
成群的鴿子飛落在她的腳邊
So put a candle in the window and a kiss upon his lips
請點一支蠟燭置於窗前,輕吻他的唇吧
As the dish outside the window fills with rain
窗外的碗碟盛滿雨水
Just like a stranger with the weeds in your heart
就像一個在你心裡流浪的陌生人
And pay the fiddler off 'til I come back again
打發走那個小提琴手吧,直到我再次歸來
Oh it's time time time, and it's time time time
啊,這是時光,時光,時光。這是時光,時光,時光
And it's time time time that you love
這是時光,你所珍愛的時光
And it's time time time
這就是時光,時光,時光
And it's time time time, and it's time time time
這是時光,時光,時光
And it's time time time that you love
這是時光,你所珍愛的時光
And it's time time time
這就是時光,時光,時光
