Written by:Jackson Browne
I'm going to rent myself a house
我要租下一间小屋
In the shade of the freeway
在高速公路的阴影下
I'm going to pack my lunch in the morning
清晨我会打包好午餐
And go to work each day
日复一日去工作
And when the evening rolls around
当暮色渐渐降临
I'll go on home and lay my body down
我便回家躺下歇息
And when the morning light comes streaming in
当晨光再次流泻而入
I'll get up and do it again
我又将起身重复这一切
Amen
阿门
Say it again
再说一次
Amen
阿门
I want to know what became of the changes
我想知道那些期许的下落
We waited for love to bring
我们等待爱带来的改变
Were they only the fitful dreams
是否只是断续的幻梦
Of some greater awakening
来自某个更深的觉醒
I've been aware of the time going by
我始终听见时光流逝的声音
They say in the end it's the wink of an eye
人们说最终不过弹指一瞬
And when the morning light comes streaming in
当晨光再次流泻而入
You'll get up and do it again
你又会起身重复这一切
Amen
阿门
Caught between the longing for love
在渴望爱与
And the struggle for the legal tender
追逐铜臭的撕扯间
Where the sirens sing and the church bells ring
警笛与教堂钟声交织之处
And the junk man pounds his fender
废铁匠正敲打着他的挡板
Where the veterans dream of the fight
老兵们在梦中重温战场硝烟
Fast asleep at the traffic light
车流红灯下昏沉睡去
And the children solemnly wait
孩子们虔诚等待
For the ice cream vendor
冰淇淋车叮咚而来
Out into the cool of the evening
暮色微凉中漫步
Strolls the pretender
那个戴着面具的追梦人
He knows that all his hopes and dreams
他明白所有希冀与幻梦
Begin and end there
都在此处轮回
Ah the laughter of the lovers
恋人们的欢笑声
As they run through the night
在夜色中奔跑穿行
Leaving nothing for the others
未给他人留下分毫
But to choose off and fight
唯有选择与抗争
And tear at the world with all their might
倾尽全力撕裂这世界
While the ships bearing their dreams
承载梦想的船只
Sail out of sight
渐行渐远消失天际
I'm going to find myself a girl
我要去寻找属于我的女孩
Who can show me what laughter means
谁能为我诠释欢笑的真谛
And we'll fill in the missing colors
我们将为彼此填补缺失的色彩
In each other's paint by number dreams
在按数字填色的梦境里相融
And then we'll put out dark glasses on
然后戴上深色滤镜
And we'll make love until our strength is gone
缠绵至耗尽最后一丝气力
When morning light comes streaming in
当晨光倾泻而入
We'll get up and do it again
我们会起身重演这场幻梦
Get it up again
再度沉溺其中
I'm going to be a happy idiot
我甘愿做个快乐的傻瓜
And struggle for the legal tender
为那铜臭苦苦挣扎
Where the ads take aim and lay their claim
广告瞄准猎物 肆意掠夺
To the heart and the soul of the spender
掏空消费者灵魂与心脏
And believe in whatever may lie
盲目相信金钱万能
In those things that money can buy
以为物质能买来天堂
Thought true love could have been a contender
曾以为真爱能与之抗衡
Are you there
你还在吗
Say a prayer for the pretender
为那伪装者祈祷吧
Who started out so young and strong
他曾经年少气盛
Only to surrender
最终却选择屈服
Say a prayer for the pretender
为那伪装者祈祷吧
Are you there for the pretender
你可愿守护那伪装者
Say a prayer for the pretender
为那伪装者祈祷吧
Are you there for the pretender
你可愿守护那伪装者
Are you prepare for the pretender
你可准备好接纳那伪装者
