歌词
It's four in the morning the end of december
凌晨四点，12月底了
I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
现在我正给你写信，只是想知道你是不是过得好些了
New york is cold but I like where I'm living
纽约很冷，但我喜欢我住的地方
There's music on clinton street all through the evening
这里会有人播放音乐，在整个克林顿街彻夜唱响
I hear that you're building your house deep in the desert
我听说你在沙漠里筑你的小屋
Are you living for nothing now I hope you're keeping some kind of record
你现在一无所求，我希望你还留着某些记录
Yes and jane came by with a lock of your hair
是的，简来过了，带着一束你的头发
She said that you gave it to her
她说是你送她
That night when you planned to go clear
在那个夜晚，你打算离开她
Did you ever go clear
你们真的理清了吗
Ah the last time we saw you you looked so much older
我们最后一次见到你时你已早生华发
Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
你那件著名的蓝雨衣，已经残破在肩
You'd been to the station to meet every train
你去火车站等过了每一趟火车
But she never turned up I mean lili marlene
却没有带回你爱的莉莉玛莲
So you treated some woman to a flake of your life
你对我的女人简，只是生活的一个碎片
And when she got home she was nobody's wife
她回来时，仍是单飞燕
Well I see you there with the rose in your teeth
哦，我依稀看见，玫瑰在你的唇边
One more thin gypsy thief
又一个不高明的吉普赛偷心贼
Well I see jane's awake --
哦，我发现简现在很清醒
She sends her regards
让我带她的问候给你
And what can I tell you oh what can I tell you
我可以告诉你什么呢，我的弟兄我的情敌
What can I possibly say
我可能说什么呢
I guess that I miss you I guess I forgive you
也许是我想念你，也许是我原谅你
I'm glad that you stood in my way
很高兴你我曾经相遇
And if you ever come by here be it for jane or for me
如果你来，为了简，或者为了我
I want you to know your enemy is sleeping I want you to know your woman is free
你情敌的敌意在沉睡，他的女人已经解脱
Yes and thanks for the trouble you took from her eyes
是的，感谢你擦去了她眼中的烦恼落寞
I thought it was there for good so I never really tried
我以为那些烦恼落寞与生俱来，擦去它们，我从未想过
And jane came by with a lock of your hair
简回来了，带着一束你的头发
She said that you gave it to her
她说是你送她
That night when you planned to go clear
那个晚上，你准备好离开她
Sincerely, a friend
