歌词
Well it's five in the morning and the light's already broken
现在凌晨五点，破晓早已到来
And the rainy streets are empty for nobody else has woken
雨街空无一人，现在没人醒来
Yet you turn towards the window as he sleeps beneath the covers
但你转向窗外，当他还在被子下沉睡
And you wonder what he's dreaming in his slumbers
你好奇他梦中看到了怎样的景象
There's a clock upon the table and it's burning up the hour
时钟放在桌上，烧尽时间
And you feel your life is shrinking like the petals of a flower
你的生活褪色发黄，像是枯萎花瓣
As you creep towards the closet you're so careful not to wake him
你挪向壁橱，小心不把他吵醒
And you choose the cotton dress you bought last summer
你选了去年夏天买下的棉裙
There's a time of indecision between the bedroom and the door
你还有点时间，在门和卧室之间犹豫不决
But the part of you that knows that you can't take it any more
但你心里多少知道日子不能这么过
There's the promise of the future in the creaking of the floor
地板嘎吱作响，那里有个应许的未来
And you're torn if you should leave him with a number
你犹豫是否该留下自己的电话号码
And in your imagination you're a thousand miles away
在你幻想中你已离家千里
Because too many of his promises got broken on the way
因为太多次他半途而废的承诺
So you write it in a letter all the things you couldn't say
于是你在信里写下所有说不出口的话
And you tell him that you're never coming home
你告诉他你不会再回家
She starts running for the railway station praying that her calculation's right
她奔向火车站，祈祷一切不会超出预算
And there's a train just waiting there to get her to the city before night
列车正等在站台，带她在夜晚前到达另一个地方
A place to sleep a place to stay will get her through another day
一地过夜，一地停留，就又带她到另一天之后
She'll take a job she'll find a friend she'll make a life that's better
她会有新的工作，新的朋友，经营更好的生活
The passengers ignore her just a girl with an umbrella
旅客把她无视，只是个拿着伞的女孩
And there's nothing they can do for her, there's nothing they can tell her
他们没有什么能为她做的事，或是能告诉她的话
There's nothing they could ever say would change the way she feels today
没什么他们能说的会改变她今日所想所感
She'd live the life she'd always dreamed if he had only let her
她会有她梦想的人生，只要他放手让她随性而活
Now in her imagination she's a million miles away
在她幻想中她已离家万里
When too many of his promises got broken on the way
当有太多次他半途而废的承诺
So she wrote it in a letter all the things she couldn't say
于是她在信里写下所有说不出口的话
And she told him she was never coming home
她告诉他她不会再回家
She told him she was never coming home
她告诉他她不会再回家
Sting
Never Coming Home
I wake up in an empty bed a road drill hammers in my head
我醒在空床上，像是有钻机敲着脑袋
I call her name there's no reply it's not like her to let me lie
叫了她的名字却没人回应，她不像会让我躺到这下
It's time for work it's time to go but something's different I don't know
是时候上班出门，但有哪里不对说不出的地方不对劲
I need a cup of coffee I'll feel better
我需要杯咖啡，我会感觉好些
I stumble to the bathroom door, her make up bag is on the floor
跌跌撞撞到浴室门前，她的化妆包在地上
It really is a mess this place it takes some time to shave my face
这里一片混乱，我花了些时间剃胡茬
I'm not really thinking straight she never lets me sleep this late
我思绪纠缠，她从不让我赖床到这么晚
I'm almost done and then I see the letter
我基本快收拾好自己，然后看到那封信
In his imagination she's a universe away
他的幻想中她已离家光年之外
Too many of his promises got broken on the way
有过太多次他半途而废的承诺
So she wrote it in a letter all things she couldn't say
于是她在信里写下所有说不出口的话
And she told him she was never coming home,
她告诉他她不会再回家
She told him she was never coming home,
她告诉他她不会再回家
I'm gonna live my life
我要去过我的生活
And she told him she was never coming home
她告诉他她不会再回家
I'm gonna live my life
我要去过我的生活
And she told him she was never coming home
她告诉他她不会再回家
