歌词
All my city is dressed in skin
我的城市被冰霜覆盖
Her lips are dark
她的嘴唇黑紫
Her ankles thin
她的脚踝纤细
Oh my dizzy ballerina won't you give us a spin
哦能为我们旋转吗我炫目的芭蕾舞女
My country's cold in autumn's chains
她令所有风车旋转起来
Every time I think of her it rains
但我的国度在秋天是寒冷的
When she breathes upon the morning
因为每次我想念她时天总落雨
She shakes all the weather vanes
当她在清晨呼吸时
Now I try to keep a steady hand
我努力尝试保持手掌稳定
Because I'm living in a shaky land
因为我站立在一片晃动的大地上
Lord I try to be an honest man
主啊 我尝试去做一个诚实的人
But it's tougher than I ever planned
但这比我期待的要更加艰难
In the westbound air tonight are those centuries
那几百年都在西风中逝去
My tongue-tied beheaded bride
我的无言的被斩首的新娘
The Alberta breeze
在阿尔伯塔省的寒风中
Oh David drive like you've never done
极速奔驰吧大卫
Oh Sarah sing like you've never sung
放声歌唱吧莎拉
Oh my dizzy ballerina spin like you've never spun
哦能为我们旋转吗我炫目的芭蕾舞女
Now I'm sending you a telegram
我现在在写电报告诉你
About my days in the caravan
关于我在房车里的那些日子
With the steers and the bleating lambs
关于我在公牛和咩咩叫的小羊羔陪伴下的那些日子
Took the money and away I ran
把我的财富夺走吧 我将要离去
I recall how the dress you wore rose above your knees
我回想起那时你的裙角是怎样掠过你的膝盖了
As the thrush flew from the mouth of the Alberta breeze
当鸫鸟飞出阿尔伯塔省的寒风
The summer's turned it's back on me with a sorrow-laden symmetry
夏天也已经离我而去并留给我很多充满悲伤的相似事物
With a highway kind of robbery
它在剥削我的情感
Like my life was an apology
就像我的生命是一个道歉
Now I don't think about you all the time
可我现在已经不会一直想念你了
Only when the trees
只有在那些树木
sway somehow slaughtered by
在阿尔伯塔省的寒风里
The Alberta breeze
不知怎么地摇曳着的时候
