Father Mountain - Iron/Calexico/Wine
Lyrics by:Sam Beam
Composed by:Calexico
Well my father built a mansion on the mountain
我的父亲在山上建了一座宅院
I was chasing my Teresa around a tree
我在树边和我的Teresa追逐打闹
We were kicking precious stones
我们把宝石踢着玩
Sinking ships and swimming home
船沉了 只能游回家
Only crazy for the comfort of our clothes
只在乎身上的衣服舒不舒服
Well my father built a mansion on the mountain
我的父亲在山上建了一座宅院
My Teresa dragged her hand across my brow
我的Teresa用手抚摸着我的额头
She said"The weather's never fair
她说 天气一直不好
The wind can only blow your hair"
风会吹乱你的头发
And I believed her well enough or didn't care
我对她的话深信不疑 也可能根本没放在心上
Everyone knows and they don't know
每个人都似懂非懂
Chandelier light ain't love
吊灯的光芒并非爱情
It just watches the time go
它就这样看着时间溜走
Across the marble floor out the order mail door
走过大理石地板 走出家门
Even rain can hear it running off the road
就连雨水都能听到时间在地面流淌
Well my father built a mansion on the mountain
我的父亲在山上建了一座宅院
My Teresa threw me kisses through the core
我的Teresa从人群中送来飞吻
We read the writing on the wall
我们有种不好的预感
Braced each other for the fall
紧紧相拥 准备迎接挫折
There's only one way or the mountain after all
毕竟这座山上只有一条道路
Well my father built a mansion on the mountain
我的父亲在山上建了一座宅院
It was me and my Teresa against the world
我和我的Teresa对抗全世界
We took all the river had to give
我们跋山涉水 克服艰难险阻
Broke the bed and bought a grill
破釜沉舟 抛弃一切
But left the mountain mansion nothing to forget
离开了山上的宅院 没什么值得留恋
