Not A Drop Of Rain - Shawn Colvin

Not A Drop Of Rain - Shawn Colvin (肖恩·卡文)
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
The streets are almost empty
街道几乎空无一人
The shops are all closed down
店铺全都关门歇业
There's not a soul left in the bar
酒吧里连个倾诉的对象都没有
To tell my troubles to
无人听我诉说烦忧
Think I'll walk down to the river
我想我会漫步到河边
That had just south of town
就在城南不远处
I hate like hell when there ain't nothin' left to do
最恨这无事可做的空虚时光
But stand beneath the river bridge and listen for the train
站在河桥下 聆听火车轰鸣
It's been a long hot summer not a drop of rain
漫长炎夏 滴水未降
I broke down in December headed for the coast
十二月崩溃时 我奔向海岸
I thought the wind and water would elevate my mind
原以为海风浪涛能涤荡心灵
I surfaced in the springtime feelin' like a ghost
春日苏醒时 却恍若游魂
Missin' more than ever the things I left behind
比任何时候都怀念 那些遗落过往
Now I'm standin' on this riverbank and still cannot explain
此刻独立河岸 仍难解其中缘由
It's been a long hot summer not a drop of rain
漫长炎夏 滴水未降
My bag is full of letters unopened and unread
行囊里塞满未拆的信笺 字字未读
I'm sure they'd tell the story of worry and of form
想必字里行间 尽是忧虑与拘束
My heart is beating heavy with all we left unsaid
心脏沉沉跳动 为所有未言之语
I swear to you I never meant you any harm
我发誓从未想过 将你伤得分毫
But sacrifice and compromise could never stand the strain
但牺牲与妥协 终究难抵岁月侵蚀
It's been a long hot summer not a drop of rain
漫长炎夏 滴水未降
Tonight I'll close my eyes again try to see your face
今夜我又阖眼 试图勾勒你容颜
And listen for your voice to tell me it's all right to sleep
静候你嗓音轻诉 道一句安眠无妨
Convince myself I'll wake up in another time and place
说服自己会在另一个时空醒来
Knowin' all the while that it's a promise I can't keep
明知这承诺终将落空
A string of broken promises another link of chain
破碎的誓言如锁链缠绕
It's been a long hot summer not a drop of rain
漫长炎夏 滴水未降
The children on the playground the lovers in the shade
游乐场的孩童 树荫下的恋人
Remind me of a life and time
让我想起那段
That feels more like a dream
恍如梦境的生活
When the sound of love and laughter
当爱与欢笑的声响
Was the music that we played
那是我们曾奏响的乐章
As we lay beside the waters of a never-ending stream
当我们依偎在永不干涸的溪畔
Now the stream has gone to hiding
如今溪流已悄然隐去
The dream lives on in vain
徒留梦境空自流转
It's been a long hot summer not a drop of rain
漫长炎夏 滴水未降
The clouds are building slowly on the skyline to the east
东方天际云层渐聚
The wind and dust are dancing like the devil 'cross the lake
风沙共舞如魔掠过湖面
I could try to find a bottle or try to find a priest
我或可寻酒消愁 或觅神父倾诉
Salvation won't be traveling either road I take
无论选择哪条路 救赎都不会降临
So I turn my collar to the wind that echoes this refrain
我竖起衣领迎着风 任它重复这哀伤的旋律
It's been a long hot summer not a drop of rain
漫长炎夏 滴水未降
