歌词
Toms Dinner
汤姆的餐馆
Suzanne Vega
苏珊·薇格
清晨
I am sitting
我坐在
In the morning
街角的
At the diner
咖啡馆,
On the corner
在柜台前
I am waiting
等待
At the counter
酒保
For the man
给我倒一杯咖啡,
To pour the coffee
但他只倒了一半
And he fills it
就被窗外
Only halfway
正在走进来
And before
的某人
I even argue
吸引去了目光——
He is looking
我甚至
Out the window
没有来得及
At somebody
争论。
Coming in
“见到你
真令我高兴。”
"It is always
那个男人
Nice to see you"
站在吧台后面
Says the man
对那个
Behind the counter
刚进来
To the woman
正在甩雨伞的
Who has come in
女人说。
She is shaking
我撇过头去
Her umbrella
正当
And I look
他们边打招呼
The other way
变亲吻的时候。
As they are kissing
我假装
Their hellos
我看不见,
Im pretending
于是
Not to see them
在咖啡里加了牛奶。
Instead
我打开了
I pour the milk
报纸,
报纸报道了
I open
一个我从没听说过的
Up the paper
男演员
Theres a story
在他喝酒的时候
Of an actor
不幸猝死
Who had died
的新闻。
While he was drinking
好无聊啊!
It was no one
我直接翻到
I had heard of
报纸里的星座板块,
And Im turning
来找些乐子。
To the horoscope
那时我感到
And looking
有人在盯着我看,
For the funnies
于是
When Im feeling
我抬起头。
Someone watching me
窗外又
And so
有一个向里面张望的
I raise my head
女人。
她看见我了吗?
Theres a woman
我想
On the outside
她没有。
Looking inside
她只是在看
Does she see me?
窗户上自己的倒影。
No she does not
我假装
Really see me
没注意到她
Cause she sees
拉了拉
Her own reflection
她的裙子,
And Im trying
当她整理袜子
Not to notice
的时候
That shes hitching
她的头发
Up her skirt
沾湿了。
And while shes
窗外的雨
Straightening her stockings
不停地下,
Her hair
故事还没有完。
Is getting wet
我听见
远处教堂
Oh, this rain
传来的钟声,
It will continue
我想
Through the morning
是不是时候该去找你了...
As Im listening
To the bells
Of the cathedral
I am thinking
Of your voice...
