歌词
A dustland fairytale beginning
一个尘俗故事的开端
Just another white trash county kiss
由名住在县里的贫困白人的一吻揭开
In '61
在1961年
Long brown hair and foolish eyes
他棕色的长发 痴痴的双眼
He looked just like you'd want him to
深得你心
Some kind of slick chrome American prince
外表光鲜 有种美国王子的风度
A blue jean serenade
你身穿蓝色牛仔
Moon River, what'd you do to me?
为我演奏了首小夜曲 月亮河
But I don't believe you
但我却不相信你
仿佛望见身着晚礼服的灰姑娘
Saw Cinderella in a party dress
试图找件睡衣安然入眠
But she was looking for a night gown
我望见恶魔 将双手包裹好
I saw the devil wrapping up his hands
已蓄势待发 准备上场
He's getting ready for the show down
今夜 就在我转身离去的那刻
I saw the minute that I turned away
我将钱押注在“卒”上
I got my money on a pawn tonight
伪装被揭下 随之而来的改变
将他的灵魂点燃
A change came in disguise of revelation
她曾坚信 他终会回归清醒的
Set his soul on fire
数十年犹如沉船般 消失得无踪
She said she always knew he'd come around
但我们仍坚守着 是上帝赋予我们希望
但面对未知 我们仍心怀畏惧
And the decades disappear like sinking ships
犹如毒药般 在脑海内蔓延
But we persevere, God gives us hope
天际的城堡被摧毁
But we still fear what we don't know
却也只能束手无策
The mind is poison
吊桥也即将关闭
仿佛望见身着晚礼服的灰姑娘
Castles in the sky
试图找件睡衣安然入眠
Sit stranded vandalized
我望见恶魔 将双手包裹好
The drawbridge is closing
已蓄势待发 准备上场
他们翻开人生的下一页时 我预见了结局
Saw Cinderella in a party dress
我不在乎金钱了 便立即起身
But she was looking for a night gown
逃离至大分水岭所在流域
I saw the devil wrapping up his hands
那里所有的梦都被隐藏
He's getting ready for the show down
也没有微风吹拂
I saw the ending when they turned the page
好女孩也都死去
I threw my money and I ran away
天空也不会有雪飘落
Straight to the Valley of the Great Divide
也没有鸟儿歌唱
没有庄稼成长
Out where the dreams all hide
没有银铃作响
Out where the wind don't blow
没有银铃作响
Out here the good girls die
好女孩也都死去
And the sky don't snow
灰姑娘 此刻你怎么还未入睡呢
Out here the bird don't sing
你遭受这般苦难 确实饱受煎熬
Out here the field don't grow
难道你不知道 王国已被封锁
Out here the bell don't ring
所有人都需要你
Out here the bell don't ring
午夜的太阳 是否还有魔法存在
Out here the good girls die
还是你将其留在了1961年呢
Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep
那年轻男人的扑朔双眼中
所有的梦都被隐藏 不见踪迹
It's such a bitter form of refuge
Ah, don't you know the kingdom's under siege
And everybody needs you?
ls there still magic in that midnight sun
Or did you leave it back in '61?
In the cadence of a young man's eyes
Out where the dreams all hide
