歌词
I can still hear him playing “April in Paris”
我仍然可以听到他在“四月的巴黎”中的演奏
Dexter's blowing his horn
德克斯特正吹着他的小号
It's a used up tune for a faded moon
这是一首心碎欲绝、黯然的月光曲
And played for the memory of something that's gone
以及那些就要消逝的记忆
他仍怀抱梦想，在扮演一个情人
He plays like a lover who's holding a dream
其实，他知道梦想无法持续
When he knows that the dream won't last
他会让自己松弛下来，但他害怕就这么放手了
He's going down slow but he's scared to let go
内心深处，他知道梦想已经过去了
And deep down he knows the dreaming has passed
他今天还会遇见什么
One hit of cocaine, one hit of “horse(*horoin)”
这是个无法回首的失败者
he'll take what's on offer today
还曾遭遇了一场细雪如丝的袭击
It's a loser's refrain to come back again
他说：“给我红葡萄酒，给我啤酒”
And a thin line of snow(*cocaine) to blow you away
当他坐在蓝音符咖啡馆的时候
他在紫色的雾霭中结束了他的一天
He says “Buy me vin rouge, buy me a beer”
粉红色和蓝色的霓虹灯把黑夜变成了白天
as he sits in the Blue Note café
舞者已经离开了舞池
He's ending his days in a purple haze
夜出喝酒的人最终也都离去
As pink and blue neon drag night into day
夜出喝酒的人最终也都离去
不为了钱财，不为了名利
The dancers have left the floor
只是藉此抒发了内心所有的情怀
And the last of the late night drinkers are out of the door
当音乐响起时，你的灵魂便真的藉此升华
The old man's hung up his horn he's playing no more
当你听到那最后的召唤时，你该如何应对
人们说，我们从来的那条路又离去
It's not for the money, it's not for the fame
我们该如何表现，使自己成为男子汉
it's for something that sings through it all
除非我们能留下一丝美丽和优雅
When the music rings true your soul comes through
而美丽和优雅看似无足轻重，它只是人生规划的一部分
And that's what you do ‘til you hear the last call
舞者已经离开了舞池
夜出喝酒的人最终也都离去
They say we go out the way we came in
老男人却介意着他不再吹奏的小号
it's how we played it that marks the man
But if we can leave a trace of beauty and grace
Then it wasn't for nothing just part of the plan
The dancers have left the floor
And the last of the late night drinkers are out of the door
The old man's hung up his horn he's playing no more
