歌词
When the hot September sun down in Texas,
当炽热的九月的夕阳在得克萨斯州落下,
sucked the streams bone dry
河流干涸，
turned to roads to dust
道路荒芜，
In the sleepy little towns down in Texas,
夜幕下，得克萨斯州的小镇渐渐隐去，
The shades are all pulled down;
黑暗笼罩着这一切，
The streets are all rolled up.
道路也失去了踪迹，
The only thing that breaks the silence
打破这寂静的，
Are the trucks a-passin' by
唯有那正在驶过的货车，
Late at night on the front porch swing
夜深时，在前廊的秋千上，
You can hear a mournful sigh
你可以闻及声声哀叹，
The lonesome whippoorwill cries to the stars above
孤独的夜鹰对着星星凄婉的哀鸣，
He was callin' out for his lady love
他在呼唤着他的爱人，
She's been gone so long
她却已去经年。
I was just talkin' to the moon
而我也正对着月亮倾诉，
Hopin' someday soon that I'd be over
希望不久的某天我能停止
The memory of you
对你的思忆，
Too hard to hold
可我总是情不自禁，抑制不住对你的思念。
And the wind across the plains
狂风穿过那
Is all that now remains
已成废墟的平原，
The night shakes loose the names
夜晚的风勾起了（记忆中熟悉的）名字
But they never quite go back the way they came
难以忘却。
So goodbye ,rodeo
再见了，竞技场
It's a long, funny way for a man to go
这将是一段很长却有趣的旅行
never change
不会改变
never change at all
永不改变
I was just talkin' to the moon
我正对着月亮倾诉，
Hopin' someday soon that I'd be over
希望不久的某天我能停止
The memory of you- too hard to hold on
对你的思忆。可我总是情不自禁，抑制不住对你的思念。
I was just talkin' to the moon
我正对着月亮倾诉，
Hopin' someday soon that I'd be over the memory of you
希望不久的某天能停止对你的思忆。
