Written by：Joni Mitchell

When I met you on a midaway at a fair last year
去年在集市的中途相遇
And you stood out like a ruby
你如红宝石般耀眼
In a black man's ear
在黑人耳中闪烁
You were playing on the horses
你在马匹上演奏
You were playing on the guitar strings
你在吉他弦上弹奏
You were playing like the devil wearing wings
你如魔鬼般演奏，带着翅膀
Wearing wings
带着翅膀
You looked so grand wearing wings
你如此宏伟，带着翅膀
Do you tie them to your shoulders just to sing
你是否将它们绑在肩上只为歌唱
Can you fly I hear you can
你能飞翔吗 我听说你可以
Can you fly
你能飞翔吗
Just like an eagle doin' his hunting from the sky
就像鹰在天空中狩猎
I followed through a sideshow to another town
我跟随马戏团到了另一个城镇
And I found you in a trailer
在一个拖车里找到了你
On the camping grounds
在露营地上
You were betting on some lover
你正在与恋人赌博
Shootin' out the dice
掷出骰子
And I thought I saw you cheating once or twice
我似乎看到你作弊了一两次
Once or twice I heard ya did
我听说你做过一两次
Once or twice
一两次
Were you wondering was the gamble
你是否在疑惑这场赌博
Worth the price
是否值得
Now you've packed it in
如今你已收手
I heard you did packed it in
我听说你确实收手了
Was it hard to fold a hand
是否难以放弃一手好牌
You knew you could win
明知自己可以赢
Lately you've been hiding
最近你已隐退
It was somewhere in the news
新闻中曾提及你的踪迹
And I'm still at these races
而我仍在赛马场
With my ticket stubs and my blues
手握票根，心怀忧郁
The man calls out the numbers
那人报出号码
He sometimes mentions mine
偶尔也会提到我的名字
But I feel like I've been working overtime
但我觉得自己一直在加班加点
Overtime I've lost my fire overtime
加班加点 我已失去了激情
Always playing one more hand for one more dime
总是为了一分钱再多玩一把
Well I'm slowin' down
我正逐渐放慢脚步
I'm getting tired slowin' down
我感到疲惫 逐渐放慢
And I envy you the valley that you've found
我羡慕你找到的那片宁静山谷
'Cause I'm midway down the midway
因为我正处在集市的中途
Slowin' down down
逐渐放慢 放慢
