歌词
(Songs of Love and Hate)
那是凌晨四点 正值十二月末
It's four in the morning, the end of December
我起来给你写信只关心你是否安好
I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
纽约很冷 但我喜欢我住的地方
New York is cold, but I like where I'm living
整夜都有音乐飘荡在克林顿街
There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening.
我听说你正在沙漠深处筑造你的小屋
I hear that you're building your little house deep in the desert
而今你一无所有地生活 我希望你能保留一些回忆
You're living for nothing now, I hope you're keeping some kind of record.
是的 简带回来你的一绺头发
她说是你送给她的
Yes, and Jane came by with a lock of your hair
那晚你打算了无牵挂地离去
She said that you gave it to her
你真的做到了吗
That night that you planned to go clear
啊 我们最后一次见你时你看上去苍老了许多
Did you ever go clear?
你那件著名的蓝雨衣破烂地搭在肩上
你一次次去车站迎接每一辆火车
Ah, the last time we saw you you looked so much older
最终仍没能带着莉莉·玛琳一同归来
Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
你对待我的女人如同你生命中的浮光掠影
You'd been to the station to meet every train
当她回来时 她已不再是任何人的妻子
And you came home without Lili Marlene
好吧 我看见你站在那儿 玫瑰含在嘴边
像一个瘦瘦的吉普赛小偷
And you treated my woman to a flake of your life
好吧 当我看到简从睡梦中醒来
And when she came back she was nobody's wife.
嘴巴里嘟囔着发出问候
我能告诉你什么呢 我的兄弟 我的杀手
Well I see you there with the rose in your teeth
我又能说些什么呢
One more thin gypsy thief
我猜我是想你了 我猜我是原谅你了
Well I see Jane's awake --
很高兴你又回到这条路上
要是你曾拜访过此地 无论是为简还是为我
She sends her regards.
你的敌人已经沉睡 他的女人无人看管
是的 我对你能驱散她眼前的烦恼表示感谢
And what can I tell you my brother, my killer
我觉得这样就很好 我也不愿再尝试
What can I possibly say?
简带回来你的一绺头发
I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you
她说是你送给她的
I'm glad you stood in my way.
那晚你打算了无牵挂地离去
If you ever come by here, for Jane or for me
Your enemy is sleeping, and his woman is free.
Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes
I thought it was there for good so I never tried.
And Jane came by with a lock of your hair
She said that you gave it to her
That night that you planned to go clear --
Sincerely, L. Cohen
