歌词
There’s a long-distance train rolling through the rain
一列长途火车在雨中滚滚而过
眼泪洒在我写的信上
Tears on the letter I write
有一个女人我渴望碰触,我是如此想念她
但她像颗卫星般四处漂游
There’s a woman I long to touch and I miss her so much
霓虹灯在绿色烟雾中闪耀
伊丽莎白街上欢声笑语
But she’s drifting like a satellite
孤独的钟声在山谷中回响
她在纯净之溪中沐浴
There’s a neon light ablaze in a green smoky haze
她的爸爸会告诫你一定要更圆滑些
但他却依然遵从内心而行事
And laughter down on Elizabeth Street
一个纯正的彻罗基族人,他向我预言
我们分别的时间与地点
There’s a lonesome bell tone in that valley of stone
一个愤怒的女人怀中有一个婴儿
一个老练的金发脱衣女郎在台上
Where she bathed in a stream of pure heat
她将时钟拧回,她折起书页
那部无人能写出的书
Her father would emphasize you got to be more than streetwise
哦,今晚你在哪里?
真理模糊不清,太过深奥,太过纯粹
But he practiced what he preached from the heart
为了坚守你必须爆发
在最后的危机时刻,我们全然同意,
A full-blooded Cherokee, he predicted it to me
牺牲是通行的密码
我在黎明离开城镇,和马塞尔与圣约翰
The time and the place that we part
被质疑所贬低的强者
我不能告诉她我隐秘的想法
There’s a babe in the arms of a woman in a rage
但她自有发现的方法
他瞄准致命点射击,但他又打偏了
And a longtime golden-haired stripper onstage
她等待着,将花束放在架子上
当我轻抚她的秀发而上,她能感觉到我的绝望
And she winds back the clock and she turns back the page
然后发现她隐藏的自我
路上有头狮子,一只逃跑的恶魔
Of a book that no one can write
有无数消逝的梦,有一片正遭践踏的景色
当她的美丽褪去,我看着她脱去衣裳
Oh, where are you tonight?
好吧,这次我不会,但再来一次可说不定
哦,如果今晚我能找到你
The truth was obscure, too profound and too pure
我与我的自我争斗,那个内心的敌人
直到我们两个都摔倒在地
To live it you have to explode
嬉闹和疾病逐渐将我杀害
当法律不再是原来的模样
In that last hour of need, we entirely agreed
你的同伙向我索要几个小钱
你爱着的男人永远不可能洗清
Sacrifice was the code of the road
我的脚在他脸上,感觉不太合适
但他应该老实待在干净地方
I left town at dawn, with Marcel and St. John
我已经咬进禁果之心
汁液顺着我的小腿流淌
Strong men belittled by doubt
然后我与你的头儿交涉,他永远不知道损失
他永远趾高气扬耻于乞求
I couldn’t tell her what my private thoughts were
在房间的暗处一颗白色钻石隐现
一条通往繁星的道路
But she had some way of finding them out
如果你认为这美妙天堂无需代价
让我把伤疤给你看看
He took dead-center aim but he missed just the same
黎明时又是新的一天,我终于抵达
如果早上我在那儿,宝贝,你就知道我活下来了
She was waiting, putting flowers on the shelf
我不能相信,我不能相信我还活着
但没有你的话一切都毫无意义
She could feel my despair as I climbed up her hair
哦,今晚你在哪里?
And discovered her invisible self
There’s a lion in the road, there’s a demon escaped
There’s a million dreams gone, there’s a landscape being raped
As her beauty fades and I watch her undrape
Well, I won’t but then maybe again I might
Oh, if I could just find you tonight
I fought with my twin, that enemy within’
Til both of us fell by the way
Horseplay and disease is killing me by degrees
While the law looks the other way
Your partners in crime hit me up for nickels and dimes
The man you were lovin’ couldn’t never get clean
It felt outa place, my foot in his face
But he should-a stayed where his money was green
I bit into the root of forbidden fruit
With the juice running down my leg
Then I dealt with your boss, who’d never known about loss
And who always was too proud to beg
There’s a white diamond gloom on the dark side of this room
And a pathway that leads up to the stars
If you don’t believe there’s a price for this sweet paradise
Just remind me to show you the scars
There’s a new day at dawn and I’ve finally arrived
If I’m there in the morning, baby, you’ll know I’ve survived
I can’t believe it, I can’t believe I’m alive
But without you it just doesn’t seem right
Oh, where are you tonight?
