歌词
The air is getting hotter
空气逐渐变得炎热
There’s a rumbling in the skies
天边传来隆隆的响声
I’ve been wading through the high muddy water
我曾蹚过一潭泥泞的浑水
With the heat rising in my eyes
目光变得灼热起来
Every day your memory grows dimmer
每天记忆都在变得黯淡
It doesn’t haunt me like it did before
这已不像以前那样困扰我了
I’ve been walking through the middle of nowhere
我曾行走在无名之地
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
想要到达天堂 在他们关闭大门之前
When I was in Missouri
当我在密苏里的时候
They would not let me be
他们不让我待在那里
I had to leave there in a hurry
我只得匆忙地离开
I only saw what they let me see
我只看到了他们给我看的东西
You broke a heart that loved you
你伤害了一颗爱你的心
Now you can seal up the book and not write anymore
现在你可以把书封起来 不再书写下去
I’ve been walking that lonesome valley
我曾漫步在那孤独的山谷
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
想要到达天堂 在他们关闭大门之前
People on the platforms
站台上的人们
Waiting for the trains
在等待着列车进站
I can hear their hearts a-beatin’
我听到心跳动的声音
Like pendulums swinging on chains
像链条上摆动的钟摆
When you think that you've lost everything
当你认为已失去一切时
You find out you can always lose a little more
你发觉你还会失去更多
I’m just going down the road feeling bad
然而我却只能走在这条悲伤的路上
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
想要到达天堂 在他们关闭大门之前
I’m going down the river
我顺着河流而下
Down to New Orleans
来到了新奥尔良
They tell me everything is gonna be all right
他们告诉我一切都会好的
But I don’t know what “all right” even means
我却不知道 怎么样才算是好
I was riding in a buggy with Miss Mary-Jane
我和玛丽简开车小车
Miss Mary-Jane got a house in Baltimore
玛丽简在巴尔地摩有栋房子
I been all around the world, boys
我已经逛遍了全世界，孩子们
Now I’m trying to get to heaven before they close the door
现在我想到达天堂 在他们关闭大门之前
Gonna sleep down in the parlor
我将要在客厅里睡去
And relive my dreams
在梦复活
I’ll close my eyes and I wonder
闭上眼睛 我在想
If everything is as hollow as it seems
一切是不是都像它看起来那么虚无
Some trains don't pull no gamblers
一些火车没拉来赌徒
No midnight ramblers like they did before
午夜 也不再有人漫步
I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
我去过糖果镇 抖落了一身的糖
Now I’m trying to get to heaven before they close the door
现在我想到达天堂 在他们关闭大门之前
