歌词
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
在昏黑的沙漠高速公路上,凉风吹过我的头发
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
温馨的香,在空气中袅袅上升
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
抬起头遥望远方,我看见一丝微弱闪烁的光
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
我的头变得沉重,我的视线也越发模糊
I had to stop for the night
我不得不停下来过夜
There she stood in the doorway;
她就站在门廊那里
I heard the mission bell
远处教堂的钟声在我耳边回响
And I was thinking to myself,
我在心里想着
'This could be Heaven or this could be Hell'
这里可能是天堂也可能是地狱
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
然后她点燃了一根蜡烛,给我引路
There were voices down the corridor,
沿着走廊深处传来阵阵言语声
I thought I heard them say...
我想我听见他们在说

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes bends
她的心为珠宝所扭曲,她拥有豪华的奔驰车
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
还带着许多漂亮迷人的小伙子,她称之为朋友
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
他们在庭院里翩翩起舞,夏日的香汗淋漓
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
有些舞唤起回忆,而有些舞是为了忘却
So I called up the Captain,

'Please bring me my wine'

He said,'We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine'
他说,自1969年以来我们这就再没烈酒了
And still those voices are calling from far away,

Wake you up in the middle of the night
在午夜把你惊醒

Mirrors on the ceiling,

The pink champagne on ice

And she said 'We are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
这时她说,我们都不过是这里的囚徒,甘心被自己所驱使
And in the master's chambers,
在主人的房间里
They gathered for the feast

The stab it with their steely knives,
他们彼此挥舞着钢刀
But they just can't kill the beast
