Bright lights and promises
霓虹闪烁 承诺满天
A pocket full of dreams
口袋里装满梦想
That's what they pay me to be
这就是他们付钱要看到的模样
Gold lame' and diamonds
金色亮片 钻石闪耀
I'm a hometown queen
我是小镇走出的女王
Honey would you sing it just for me
亲爱的 能否为我唱首歌
When I was good then I was bad
从纯真到堕落
I never thought I'd end up this way
从未想过会沦落至此
With no dreams to hide me
无处躲藏 梦想已逝
Bright lights to guide me
唯有霓虹 指引方向
How long does it take to make the grade
要多久才能 达到期望
Everywhere I hear a ringing in my ears
耳边回荡 喧嚣声响
Drummer let the music play
鼓手啊 让音乐继续流淌
Give me small town blues
给我小镇的忧郁乐章
Make it loud make it do
尽情宣泄 尽情释放
Listen to the music sway
聆听这旋律 轻轻摇晃
Bar rails and cocktails have you got a light
酒吧栏杆与鸡尾酒 可否借个火
In that what it pays to keep in sight
这是维持生计必须紧盯的风景
Overused and much abused promises of delight
被过度消费的 虚假欢愉承诺
Honey would you care to spend the night
亲爱的 可愿共度今宵
Take a little time some memories and wine
用些许时光 佐着回忆与红酒
Loosen up the sucker by the bar
让吧台那个冤大头放松警惕
And if he wants to hold you
若他想拥你入怀
If he wants to know you
若他想了解你
Honey that's what you're here for
亲爱的 这正是你存在的意义
Until all I see
直到我眼中所见
Is them reaching out for me
只剩他们向我伸出的双手
Drummer play that old time melody
鼓手 奏响那怀旧的旋律
Bright lights and promises that's all it's for
霓虹与空头承诺 不过如此
Leave and enter by the service door
从员工通道进出已成常态
Now I'm gold lame' and diamonds
如今我身披金箔与钻石
Even if my gold is worn
纵使我的金饰已黯淡无光
Honey can you show me more
亲爱的 能否带我领略更多风光
