The Pretender - Jackson Browne (杰克逊·布朗)
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
I'm going to rent myself a house
我要租下一间小屋
In the shade of the freeway
在高速公路的阴影里
I'm going to pack my lunch in the morning
清晨我会打包好午餐
And go to work each day
日复一日去工作
And when the evening rolls around
当暮色降临
I'll go on home and lay my body down
我便回家躺下休息
And when the morning light comes streaming in
当晨光再次流泻而入
I'll get up and do it again
我又将起身重复这一切
Amen
阿门
Say it again
再说一次
Amen
阿门
I want to know what became of the changes
我想知道那些期待的转变最终如何
We waited for love to bring
我们等待爱带来的改变
Were they only the fitful dreams
难道它们只是断断续续的梦
Of some greater awakening
某种更深觉醒的征兆
I've been aware of the time going by
我始终察觉时光在流逝
They say in the end it's the wink of an eye
人们说最终不过眨眼一瞬
And when the morning light comes streaming in
当晨光再次流泻而入
You'll get up and do it again
你又会起身重复这一切
Amen
阿门
Caught between the longing for love
在渴望爱与
And the struggle for the legal tender
为生计挣扎间徘徊
Where the sirens sing and the church bells ring
海妖歌声与教堂钟鸣交织之处
And the junk man pounds his fender
废品匠敲打着他的挡板
Where the veterans dream of the fight
老兵们梦中仍回战场
Fast asleep at the traffic light
却在红灯下酣然入眠
And the children solemnly wait
孩子们安静地等待着
For the ice cream vendor
冰淇淋小贩的到来
Out into the cool of the evening
漫步走进清凉的夜色
Strolls the Pretender
那个追梦人独自徘徊
He knows that all his hopes and dreams
他明白所有希望与梦想
Begin and end there
都从这里开始又终结
Ah the laughter of the lovers
恋人们的欢笑声回荡
As they run through the night
他们彻夜奔跑徜徉
Leaving nothing for the others
未给旁人留下念想
But to choose off and fight
唯有抉择与对抗
And tear at the world with all their might
倾尽全力撕裂这尘网
While the ships bearing their dreams
载满梦的船只却已
Sail out of sight
渐行渐远消失于迷惘
I'm going to find myself a girl
我要寻得心之所向
Who can show me what laughter means
谁能告诉我欢笑的意义
And we'll fill in the missing colors
我们将为彼此填补缺失的色彩
In each other's paint by number dreams
在编号填色的梦境里相互依偎
And then we'll put out dark glasses on
然后戴上墨镜
And we'll make love until our strength is gone
缠绵至精疲力竭
And when the morning light comes streaming in
当晨光再次流泻而入
We'll get up and do it again
我们将起身重来
Get it up again
再次振作
I'm going to be a happy idiot
我甘愿做个快乐的傻子
And struggle for the legal tender
为那铜臭奔波劳碌
Where the ads take aim and lay their claim
广告如箭 瞄准人心
To the heart and the soul of the spender
侵蚀着消费者的魂灵
And believe in whatever may lie
仍相信金钱堆砌的幻影
In those things that money can buy
能买来虚妄的光明
Thought true love could have been a contender
曾以为真爱能赢得这场战役
Are you there
你还在吗
Say a prayer for the Pretender
为伪装者祈祷吧
Who started out so young and strong
他曾年少气盛 意气风发
Only to surrender
最终却选择屈服
