歌词
There's indifference on the wind
空气中吹拂着冷漠的味道
But a faint gust of hope
但在某个无人光顾的俱乐部
At a club nobody goes to
仍有一阵希望之风微弱袭来
With a musty velvet rope
那里的天鹅绒绳已散出霉味
Guys in Motorhead jackets
那些早年就熟知他的
Who knew him way back when
穿着Motörhead夹克的人们
Haven't raised a drink in years
他们已多年没有开怀畅饮
But now meet up again
却在此再度相聚
To remember how it was
只为怀念旧时的种种
When they all thought they'd move away
那时他们还想着，总有一天自己会离开这儿
And ride in Lotus 7s
然后开着莲花7型车
Through the London streets one day
驰骋在伦敦纵横的街道
Nobody ever gets away
没有人能远走高飞
Even the best of us come back some day
即便是我们中最优秀的一位也终将归来
To the unmarked rooms, where the dry dust breeds
归至那些无名的、积攒的干燥灰尘日渐变厚的房间
Andrew Eldritch is moving back to Leeds
Andrew Eldritch就要重返利兹
There's a rusted fog machine
在混凝土砌成的储物间里
In a concrete storage space
陈置着一台生锈的舞台造雾机
Letter-number combinations
它的铭牌上刻着毫无意义的
With no meaning on its face
字母与数字的组合
They won't make these anymore
如今早就没人生产这种东西了
It's a wooden coach-n-four
就好像一架被四匹马牵拉的木质车
No-one will even steal it
就算你把它丢在门口
If you leave it by the door
也没人会来偷
No sign to mark it's going
既没有告示指明它该往何处去
No tombstone for its grave
也没有墓碑标记它该于何处埋
There will be goodbyes by dozens
还有多得很这样的家伙等着你去道别呢
So practice being brave
所以坚强点吧
No-one anticipates the rush
没有人预见到即将来临的潮涌
The breezy feeling of the faceless crush
只觉察一股难以名状的惬意冲动
At the end of things, where the salvage bleeds
直至水到渠成，人们的衣缝间开始渗血
Andrew Eldritch is moving back to Leeds
Andrew Eldritch就要重返利兹
They don't throw him a parade
人们没有为他举办欢迎仪式
He just comes in on a train
他仅搭乘火车前来
One suitcase in his hand
手里提着一个提箱
And an old army backpack
肩上背着一个老式的
From the second world war
二战中使用的军用背包
From a Leipzig secondhand store
他是从莱比锡一个二手店里买来的
Pick the keys up from the agent
他从经纪人手里接过钥匙
Everything's been taken care of
万事均已打点完备
No big changes in the roadways
既然你曾离开过，我便告诉你吧
Since you've left that I'm aware of
这儿的道路并没有什么大变化
A few old buildings gone to dust
一些老楼被拆除
And some new ones in the way
但也有一些新楼正在筑建
They'll look just like the old ones
当时机成熟时
When the winds have had their say
它们看上去就和老的无甚差异
See the children bound for London
看看那些扎根于伦敦的孩子们吧
You'll all be back too
你们也终将归来
Everybody tests the membrane
每个人都欲小试牛刀
But no-one pushes through
却没人能冲破那层薄膜
Come on boys that'll be enough
好啦，孩子们，话已至此
You'd think your old friends wouldn't play so tough
你们还以为你们的老朋友不会放手一搏
Like a basket by the Nile, hiding down among the reeds
但就像尼罗河边的竹篮，藏于芦苇丛中
Andrew Eldritch is moving back to Leeds
Andrew Eldritch就要重返利兹
