Memorial Day(LP版) - Carly Simon

Memorial Day - Carly Simon
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
It should have been so soft this morning as we left
今晨本该如此温柔 当我们启程时
But the valley was infected
但山谷已被浸染
By a different kind of beauty
被另一种致命的美
And the indians they knew it was a devil's sanctuary
印第安人知晓 这是恶魔的圣所
Out of this unholy dawn a car
自这亵渎的黎明中 一辆车
Came stirring up the sand
卷起漫天沙尘
And a woman from a passion play
载着来自激情剧场的女子
Held up the limousine that brought me all this way today
那辆载我远道而来的豪华轿车停驻眼前
And I didn't need to turn around
我甚至无需回首张望
So strong was the message
因那讯息如此强烈震撼
And the man who planned her life
那个主宰她命运的男人
Commanded all that followed
操控着后续所有发展
Well they bellowed and they hollered
他们嘶吼着 咆哮着
And they threw each other down down in this valley
在这山谷里互相推搡缠斗
This cruel and lovely valley
这残酷而美丽的山谷
Oh it should have been an alley
这本该是条幽暗小巷
In some low down part of town
在城镇最阴暗的角落
As lights came up there's no sun
当灯光亮起 不见天日
And brandy splattered all over the ground
白兰地洒落遍地
As this woman with her head held high
这女子昂首挺胸
Yelled love and why
呐喊着爱与质问
Oh why you're killing me oh follow me
为何你要置我于死地 随我来吧
As I watched safe and clean
而我安然无恙地旁观
From the frosted windows of limousine
透过豪华轿车的冰霜车窗
Well they bellowed and they hollered
他们嘶吼着 咆哮着
And they threw each other down
互相推搡扭打
Down in this valley this cruel and lovely valley
在这残酷又美丽的山谷中
Oh it sould have been an alley
这本该是阴暗小巷里
In some low down part of town
在城镇最阴暗的角落
Before he'd been so funny imagining the best
他曾天真幻想能全身而退
That he'd escaper recrimination
逃离这场谴责
For abandoning the nest
他抛下了温暖的巢穴
He'd been joking and stoned
他曾嬉笑怒骂 醉生梦死
While he was entertaining me
当他取悦我的时候
But then turned and was stunned
却突然转身 惊愕不已
By her panic and her misery
因她的恐慌与痛苦而震惊
I was in the get away car
我坐在逃亡的车里
Giving him a chance to get away
给他一个逃离的机会
Get away get away get away get away get away
逃离 逃离 逃离 逃离 逃离
And how the valley smoked
山谷中烟雾弥漫
As he crossed route twenty five
当他穿过二十五号公路
With his cymbals and his shattered
带着破碎的铙钹与王冠
Crown leaving all alone
独自离去
His eyes fixed on the ground
目光始终低垂
And he didn't even turn around
甚至不曾回头
So strong was the message
因那讯息如此强烈震撼
And he fell into the shallow sky
他坠入浅淡的天际
And was swallowed
被黑暗吞噬
Well they bellowed and they hollered
他们嘶吼着 咆哮着
And they threw each other down
互相推搡扭打
Down in this valley this cruel and lovely valley
在这残酷又美丽的山谷中
Well it should have been an alley
这本该是条阴暗小巷
In some low down part of town
在城镇最阴暗的角落
