Scenes From An Italian Restaurant
来自意大利餐厅的风景
一瓶白葡萄酒，一瓶红葡萄酒
A bottle of white, a bottle of red
如果想要，或许还有瓶粉色葡萄酒
Perhaps a bottle of rose instead
我们订了靠近街边的座位
We'll get a table near the street
在这个我们熟悉的老地方
In our old familiar place
我和你，面对面坐着
You and I, face to face oooh
一瓶红葡萄酒，一瓶白葡萄酒
想喝什么全听你的
A bottle of red, a bottle of white
想见我什么时候都可以
It all depends upon your appetite
在这间意大利餐厅
I'll meet you any time you want
我最近过的还可以
In our Italian Restaurant.
有份不错的工作，一个不错的办公室
有了新的妻子，开始了新的生活
Things are okay with me these days
家庭也不错
Got a good job, got a good office
噢，我们真的太久没联系了
Got a new wife, got a new life
你瘦了
And the family is fine
我没想到岁月竟让你变得更加动人了
Oh, we lost touch long ago
你还记得匆匆那年我们在郊外约会的那些日子吗？
You lost weight, I did not know
工装靴，皮夹克，还有蓝色紧身牛仔裤
You could ever look so nice after so much time!
哦，你把一角硬币投进点唱机播放一首歌
关于新奥尔良
Do you remember those days hanging out at the village green?
冰冷的啤酒，温暖的灯光
Engineer boots, leather jackets,and tight blue jeans
那些甜蜜又浪漫的少年时光
Oh, you'd drop a dime in the box play a song
布伦达和埃迪当时很受欢迎
About New Orleans
他们是当时的舞会王后和国王
Cold beer, hot lights
快乐地车顶都要掀翻
My sweet romantic teenage nights
在收音机的音乐中，肆意开着车横冲直撞
在百汇餐厅没有人见过比这更美好更多的感动
Brenda and Eddie were the popular steadies
我们对生活心满意足，并没想要别的什么
And the king and the queen at the prom
当然，布伦达和埃迪总是知道如何继续
Riding around with the car top down
75年的夏天布伦达和埃迪在感情仍然稳定
And the radio on
这年的七月末他们决定结婚
Nobody looked any finer or was more of a hit at the ParkwayDiner
所有人都说他们太疯狂了
We never knew we could want more than that out of life
布伦达你知道你实在太懒
Surely Brenda and Eddie would always know how to survive
还有，埃迪怕也无法负担得起像样的生活
但是他们还是挥挥手送他俩远行
Brenda and Eddie were still going steady in the summer of '75
他们搬去一套公寓，还买了长绒地毯
When they decided the marriage would be at the end of July
从西尔斯买来两幅高级油画
Everyone said they were crazy
把买面包的钱拿去买了张大大的水床
Brenda you know you're much too lazy
这还是他们存了好几年的钱
And Eddie could never afford to live that kind of life
生活变得拮据，他们开始频繁吵架
But there we were waving Brenda and Eddie goodbye.
当然他们并没有指望着泪水过生活
他们还是很幸福地过了一段美妙的时光
They got an apartment with deep pile carpet
但是所有故事的结局都是一样的
And a couple of paintings from Sears
势所必然，他们离婚了
A big waterbed that they bought with the bread
他们变成了最熟悉的陌生人
They had saved for a couple of years
昔日的舞会王后和国王可以再回到那片葱绿
But they started to fight when the money got tight
也寻不回曾经
And they just didn't count on the tears
曾经属于布伦达和埃迪两个人的
那个75年的夏天
Well they lived for a while in a very nice style
无论从近到远抑或故事的终结
But it's always the same in the end
哪怕用尽他们的余生
They got a divorce as a matter of course
都难寻曾经的美好
And they parted the closest of friends
他们最多能捡拾那些美好的碎片
Then the king and the queen went back to the green
但是我们也知道他们总能走出来
But you can never go back there again.
噢这就是我所知道的布伦达和埃迪的故事
也无法告诉你再多，我已经完全讲完了
Brenda and Eddie had had it already
现在我们也要和他俩挥手再见了
By the summer of '75
一瓶红葡萄酒，一瓶白葡萄酒
From the high to the low to the end of the show
今晚你的心情如何
For the rest of their lives
想见我什么时候都可以
They couldn't go back to the greasers
在这家意大利餐厅
The best they could do was pick up the pieces
But we always knew they would both find a way to get by
Oh, that's all I heard about Brenda and Eddie
Can't tell you more cause I told you already
And here we are waving Brenda and Eddie goodbye.
A bottle of red, and bottle of white
Whatever kind of mood you're in tonight
I'll meet you anytime you want
In our Italian Restaurant
