Lyrics by:Joan Baez
Composed by:Joan Baez
Well I'll be d**ned
真见鬼,竟然是这样
Here comes your ghost again
你的幽灵又再度现身
But that's not unusual
但这并不稀奇
It's just that the moon is full
只是恰逢月圆之夜
And you happened to call
而你刚好打来电话
And here I sit
我就坐在这里
Hand on the telephone
手紧握着话筒
Hearing a voice I'd known
听着那个熟悉的声音
A couple of light years ago
仿佛来自几个光年之前
Heading straight for a fall
正奔向注定的沉沦
As I remember your eyes
我仍记得你的双眼
Were bluer than robin's eggs
比知更鸟蛋还要湛蓝
My poetry was lousy you said
你说我的诗写得烂透了
Where are you calling from
你是在哪儿给我打的电话?
A booth in the midwest
中西部的某个电话亭
Ten years ago
十年前
I bought you some cufflinks
我曾送你几对袖扣
You brought me something
你也曾带给我一些东西
We both know what memories can bring
我们都清楚记忆会带来什么
They bring diamonds and rust
带来钻石与铁锈
Well you burst on the scene
当年你横空出世
Already a legend
早已是一个传奇
The unwashed phenomenon
那个不修边幅的奇才
The original vagabond
最初的流浪者
You strayed into my arms
你误打误撞闯入我怀中
And there you stayed
在那里停留了片刻
Temporarily lost at sea
暂时迷失在深海
The Madonna was yours for free
圣母为你无私守候
Yes the girl on the half-shell
是的,那个贝壳上的女孩
Would keep you unharmed
曾护你周全
Now I see you standing
此刻我看见你伫立
With brown leaves falling around
身旁枯叶纷纷飘落
And snow in your hair
发间点缀着雪花
Now you're smiling out the window
此刻你正望向窗外微笑
Of that crummy hotel
在那间寒碜的旅馆里
Over Washington Square
就在华盛顿广场之上
Our breath comes out white clouds
我们的呼吸化作团团白雾
Mingles and hangs in the air
在空中交融,久久不散
Speaking strictly for me
对我而言
We both could have died then and there
我们本可以在那时那地一同死去
Now you're telling me
现在你告诉我
You're not nostalgic
你并不怀旧
Then give me another word for it
那就换个词来形容它吧
You who are so good with words
你这个最擅长摆弄文字的人
And at keeping things vague
也最擅长含糊其辞
Because I need some of that vagueness now
因为此刻我也需要这种模糊
It's all come back too clearly
一切都浮现得太清晰
Yes I loved you dearly
是的,我曾深爱过你
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
如果你要给我钻石与铁锈
I've already paid
代价我早已付清
