Street of London
David Roth
Street of London 歌詞
~guitar~
Have you seen the old man
你可曾見過那個老人
In the closed down market
在打烊的集市上
Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes
用他破舊的鞋子提著散落的報紙
In his eyes you see no pride
昔日的驕傲已經不再
Hands held loosely at his side
雙手散漫地低垂著
Yesterday's paper, telling yesterday's news
往事都已成雲煙
So how can you tell me you're lonely
你該如何表達你的孤獨呢
And say for you that the sun don't shine
比如說太陽都不再為你發光了
Let me take you by the hand
讓我牽起你的手
And lead you through the streets of London
帶你走過倫敦的街道
I'll show you something
讓你看看那兒發生的事情
To make you change your mind
它們會讓你回心轉意的
Have you seen the old girl
你可曾見過那個大齡女青年
Who walks the streets of London
獨自走在倫敦的街道上
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags
風塵僕僕衣服破舊
She's no time for talking
她對交談無暇顧及
She just keeps right on walking
她只自顧自地前行
Carrying her home in two carrier bags
手中提著兩個手提袋
So how can you tell me you're lonely
你該如何表達你的孤獨呢
And say for you that the sun don't shine
比如說太陽都不再為你發光了
Let me take you by the hand
讓我牽起你的手
And lead you through the streets of London
帶你走過倫敦的街道
I'll show you something
讓你看看那兒發生的事情
To make you change your mind
它們會讓你回心轉意的
So how can you tell me you're lonely
你該如何表達你的孤獨呢
And say for you that the sun don't shine
比如說太陽都不再為你發光了
Let me take you by the hand
讓我牽起你的手
And lead you through the streets of London
帶你走過倫敦的街道
I'll show you something
讓你看看那兒發生的事情
To make you change your mind
它們會讓你回心轉意的
In the old night cafe at a quarter past eleven
二十三點一刻的咖啡館
The same old man sitting there on his own
老人獨自坐在那兒
Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup
看著茶杯沿陷入沉思
Each tea lasts an hour, and he wanders home alone
一個小時後起身獨自回家
So how can you tell me you're lonely
你該如何表達你的孤獨呢
And say for you that the sun don't shine
比如說太陽都不再為你發光了
Let me take you by the hand
讓我牽起你的手
And lead you through the streets of London
帶你走過倫敦的街道
I'll show you something
讓你看看那兒發生的事情
To make you change your mind
它們會讓你回心轉意的
Have you seen the old man
你可曾見過那個老人
Outside the seaman's mission
(年輕時)揚帆遠航
Memory fading with the minor ribands that he wears
記憶如同他帶的絲帶一樣漸漸褪色
In our winter city the rain cries little pity
在這座城市中,冬天的小雨為了遺憾而哭泣
For one more forgotten hero
為了一個被遺忘的英雄
And a world which doesn't care
和這個袖手旁觀的世界
So how can you tell me you're lonely
你該如何表達你的孤獨呢
And say for you that the sun don't shine
比如說太陽都不再為你發光了
Let me take you by the hand
讓我牽起你的手
And lead you through the streets of London
帶你走過倫敦的街道
I'll show you something
讓你看看那兒發生的事情
To make you change your mind
它們會讓你回心轉意的
