Goodnight Tender - Amy Ray

Goodninght Tender – Amy Ray

Goodnight sweet Tender the veil is on the loom
晚安 我的小甜心 月亮就像笼罩在轻纱里
The coyotes are yippee yi yaying
狼群在远处长啸
They sing a lonesome tune
它们唱着一只孤单的歌曲
All of my life I’m a-rambling so you’re in my stead
我的一生都悠游自在 因为有你的陪伴
I like awake and wonder at every bedtime tale
我喜欢醒来的时候 听你给我讲个床边故事
So keep the coals a-glowing
让我沉浸在这温暖之中吧
And keep my true love dreaming
让我沉浸在这场爱情的美梦之中
Goodnight
晚安
I met a man wandering down in Harbortown

He begged from me a dollar

He drank the dollar down

He said I am a sailor swallowed by the war
他说过 我是个水手 会为国家而战
A soldier drenched and salty cast back to the shore
一个战士会在海上为国家英勇作战
And now I’m good for nothing except to drink and dream
但是现在我一事无成 每天都醉生梦死
Goodnight sweet Tender the veil is on the loom

I met a maiden widowed in a coalman’s town

She said once I had a true love then came the mountain down

They fed us for a while but took us before our time
