《Goodnight America(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Goodnight America - Mary Chapin Carpenter (玛丽翠萍·卡本特)

[00:00:26] //

[00:00:26] I'm standing at a traffic light somewhere in west L A

[00:00:33] 在西洛杉矶的某地 我站在红绿灯前

[00:00:33] Waiting for the sign to change then I'll be on my way

[00:00:40] 等待着通行 我就可以上路

[00:00:40] The noise the heat the crush of cars just robs me of my nerve

[00:00:46] 人群很喧闹 天气很热 车辆川流不息 我快要崩溃了

[00:00:46] Then someone yells and blasts their horn and pins me to the curb

[00:00:53] 然后有人叫喊着 按着喇叭 把我挤到路边

[00:00:53] I'm a stranger here no one you would know

[00:00:59] 我就像一个陌生人 谁都不认识

[00:00:59] My ship has not come in but I keep hoping though

[00:01:06] 我的船还没来 我一直满怀希望在等待

[00:01:06] And I keep looking past the sun that sets above

[00:01:12] 我看着太阳落下的方向

[00:01:12] Saying to myself goodnight America

[00:01:33] 我对自己说 晚安美国

[00:01:33] And I am driving into Houston on a rain-slicked Texas road

[00:01:40] 我开车去休斯顿 正在一条湿滑的Texas路上

[00:01:40] Land so flat and sky so dark I say a prayer to float

[00:01:46] 路很平坦 天很黑 我的心中浮起祷告

[00:01:46] Should all at once the San Jacinto surge beyond its banks

[00:01:53] San Jacinto是不是应该突然冲向河岸边

[00:01:53] Like Noah reaching higher ground I'd offer up my thanks

[00:02:00] 就像Noah到了更高的地方 我会感谢你的

[00:02:00] 'Cause I'm a stranger here no one you would know

[00:02:06] 我就像一个陌生人 谁都不认识

[00:02:06] I'm just passing through I am therefore I go

[00:02:13] 我只是路过 我还要上路

[00:02:13] The moon rose in the east but now it's right above

[00:02:20] 月亮从东边升起 但它现在高悬头顶

[00:02:20] As I say aloud goodnight America

[00:02:54] 当我大声说 晚安 美国

[00:02:54] Midnight it's hard to see the stars

[00:03:00] 午夜 看不见星光

[00:03:00] Out on a highway near Atlanta full of strip malls & used cars

[00:03:07] 在Atlanta附近的公路上 路边都是零售商场和旧汽车

[00:03:07] First light just roll your window down and smell

[00:03:14] 天快亮的时候 摇下你的车窗 闻闻看

[00:03:14] The salty air perfume of Charleston town

[00:03:53] Charleston小镇空气中散发出带点咸味的香气

[00:03:53] Well I'm looking with a pilgrim's eyes upon some promised land

[00:04:00] 我有一双朝圣者的眼睛 去寻找乐土

[00:04:00] I'm dreaming with my heart outstretched as if it were my hand

[00:04:06] 我做着美梦 敞开的心扉仿佛伸出的双手

[00:04:06] And I'll hit the Cross Bronx just in time to beat the rush hour lock

[00:04:13] 我会很快到达Cross Bronx

[00:04:13] But I got no clue what time it is from this world's busted clock

[00:04:20] 但是我不知道现在几点因为 整个世界的钟都出错

[00:04:20] Yeah I'm a stranger here no one you would know

[00:04:26] 我就像一个陌生人 谁都不认识

[00:04:26] I'm from somewhere else isn't everybody though

[00:04:33] 我来自别的地方 谁也不是

[00:04:33] I don't know where I'll be when the sun comes up

[00:04:40] 当太阳升起 我不知道自己会在哪里

[00:04:40] But till then sweet dreams goodnight America

[00:04:45] 直到那时候 我一直做着美梦 晚安 美国
