Written by：Janis Ian

I was never one for singing
我向来不善歌唱
What I really feel
倾诉真心所想
Except tonight I'm bringing
但今夜我将献上
Everything I know that's real
所有真实的渴望
Stars they come go
星辰起落无常
They come fast or slow
或疾或缓流淌
They go like the last light
如落日最后光芒
Of the sun all in a blaze
燃尽漫天辉煌
And all you see is glory
你所见的尽是辉煌
But it gets lonely there
但高处不胜寒
When there's no one here to share
无人与你分享荣光
We can shake it away
我们可以挥别寂寥
If you'll hear a story
若你愿倾听这段故事
People lust for fame
世人渴慕声名
Like athletes in a game
如赛场竞技的健儿
We break our collarbones
我们甘愿折断翅膀
And come up swinging
重整旗鼓再出发
Some of us are downed
有人黯然坠落
Some of us are crowned
有人加冕为王
Some are lost
有人迷失方向
Never found
永无归途
But most have seen it all
但多数人早已看透
They live their lives in
他们终其一生
Sad cafes and music halls
徘徊在忧伤咖啡馆与音乐厅
They always come up singing
他们总是高歌而来
Some make it when they're young
有人年少便功成名就
Before the world has done it's dirty job
在世俗尚未玷污纯真之前
And later on someone will say
而后终会有人冷言
You've had your day now you must make way
"风光已逝 该退场了"
But they'll never know the pain of living with a name you never owned
但无人知晓 背负虚名的煎熬
Or the many years forgetting what you know too well
经年累月 试图遗忘刻骨铭心的真相
That the ones who gave the crown have been let down
加冕之人 终成负累
You try to make amends without defending
你试图弥补 却不愿辩解
Perhaps pretending you never saw the eyes
或许假装从未看见那些目光
Of grown men of twenty five
二十五岁成年男子的注视
Who all followed as you walked and asked for autographs
他们追随你索要签名
Or kissed you on the cheek
或轻吻你的脸颊
And you never could believe they really loved you
你始终不敢相信他们的真心
Some make it when they're old
有人大器晚成
Perhaps they have a soul they're not afraid to bare
或许因他们敢于袒露灵魂
Or perhaps there's nothing there
或许那里本就空无一物
Stars they come and go they come fast they come slow
星辰来去匆匆 或急或缓
They go like the last light of the sun all in a blaze
如落日余晖般绚烂消逝
And all you see is glory
你所见的尽是辉煌
But those who've seen it all
但那些看尽繁华的人
Live all their lives in sad cafes and music halls
终生徘徊在忧伤咖啡馆与音乐厅
We always have a story
我们总有故事可讲
Some women have a body men will want to see
有些女子天生丽质 令人神往
So they put it on display
他们将才华尽数展现
And some people play a fine guitar
有人指尖跃动 吉他声婉转
I can listen to them play all day
我愿终日沉醉这旋律之间
Some ladies really move across a stage
有舞者翩跹掠过舞台光晕
And gee they sure can dance
身姿摇曳似水般轻盈
But I guess I could learn how if I gave it half a chance
若我愿尝试 或许也能习得半分灵韵
But I always feel so funny when my body tries to soar
可每当试图翱翔 总觉笨拙难言
And I seem to always worry about missing the next chord
我总在担心会错过下一个和弦
So I guess there isn't anything to put up on display
所以大概没什么值得展示的东西
Except the tunes and whatever else I say
除了这些旋律和我随口的话语
And anyway that isn't really what I meant to say
其实这些都不是我真正想表达的
I meant to tell a story and I live from day to day
我想讲述一个故事 而我过着朝不保夕的生活
Stars they come and go they come fast they come slow
星辰来去匆匆 或急或缓
They go like the last light of the sun all in a blaze
如落日余晖般绚烂消逝
And all you see is glory
你所见的尽是辉煌
But those who've seen it all
但那些看尽繁华的人
Live all their lives in sad cafes and music halls
终生徘徊在忧伤咖啡馆与音乐厅
We always have a story
我们总有故事可讲
So if you don't lose patience with my fumbling around
若你愿包容我笨拙的摸索
I'll come up singing for you even when I'm down
纵使跌落谷底 我也为你歌唱
