For a Dancer(Remastered) - Jackson Browne

Keep a fire burning in your eye
你的眼中始终充满热情
Pay attention to the open sky
注意开阔的天空
You never know what will be coming down
你永远不知道接下来会发生什么
I don't remember losing track of you
我不记得我失去了你的踪迹
You were always dancing in and out of view
你总是在我的视野里忽隐忽现
I must've thought you'd always be around
我肯定以为你会永远在我身边
Always keeping things real by playing the clown
总是扮演小丑保持真实
Now you're nowhere to be found
如今你无处可寻
I don't know what happens when people die
我不知道人死后会发生什么
Can't seem to grasp it as hard as I try
似乎无法像我这样用心去领悟
It's like a song I can hear playing right in my ear
就像耳边响起的一首歌
But I can't sing
但我不会唱歌
I can't help listening
我情不自禁地侧耳倾听
I can't help feeling stupid standing 'round
站在这里我情不自禁地感到愚蠢
Crying is they ease you down
哭泣是不是可以让你平静下来
'Cause I know that you'd rather we were dancing
因为我知道你更希望我们翩翩起舞
Dancing our sorrow away
跳舞赶走我们的悲伤
Right on Dancing
尽情舞蹈
No matter what fate chooses to play
不管命运如何选择
There's nothing you can do about it anyway
反正你也无能为力
Just do the steps that you've been shown
按我教你的步骤来吧
By everyone you've ever known
你认识的每一个人
Until the dance becomes your very own
直到这支舞属于你
No matter how close to yours
无论你多么渴望
Another's steps have grown
另一个人的脚步越来越远
In the end there is one dance you'll do alone
到最后你会独自起舞
Keep a fire for the human race
为人类保持热情
Let your prayers go drifting into space
让你的祈祷飘向远方
You never know what will be coming down
你永远不知道接下来会发生什么
Perhaps a better world is drawing near
也许更美好的世界即将来临
Just as easily it could all disappear
一切都可以轻易消失
Along with whatever meaning you might have found
不管你会发现什么意义
Don't let the uncertainty turn you around
不要让不确定的情绪左右你的决定
The world keeps turning around and around
这世界不停地转动
Go on and make a joyful sound
继续发出愉悦的声音
Into a dancer you have grown
你已经成长为一名舞者
From a seed somebody else has thrown
从别人撒下的一颗种子开始
Go on ahead and throw some seeds of your own
继续前进撒下你自己的种子
And somewhere between the time you arrive
在你到来之前的某个时刻
And the time you go
你离开的时候
May lie a reason you were alive
也许谎言是你活着的理由
That you'll never know
你永远不会知道
