歌词
Ah,the man she wanted all her life was hanging by a thread
啊,她渴望了一生的男人吊死于一根绳索
I never even knew how much I wanted you,she said
“我从没意识到对你的渴望有多深”,她说
His muscles they were numbered and his style was obsolete
他的肌肉行将萎缩,他的风度也已尽丧
Oh baby,I have come too late she knelt beside his feet
“宝贝,我来迟了” 她跪倒在他脚旁
I'll never see a face like yours in years of men to come
“从今往后,我再不会看见如你一般的脸庞
I'll never see such arms again in wrestling or in love
无论摔跤抑或,再不会看见这样的臂膀”
And all his virtues burning in the smoky holocaust
他的美质在迷蒙的燔祭中熠熠如焚
She took unto herself most everything her lover lost
她将爱人丧失之物统统归诸己身
Now the master of this landscape he was standing there at the view
此时美景的主人出现在视野之中,
With a sparrow of St.Francis that he was preaching to
带着圣弗朗西斯曾对其布道的麻雀
She beckoned to the sentry of his high religious mood
她召唤他那崇高的之情的守卫
She said,I'll make a place between my legs, I'll show you solitude
她说,“我将在两腿之间留出空隙,我将向你展示孤独”
He offered her an orgy in a many mirrored room
他与她在满是镜子的屋内狂欢
He promised her protection for the issue of her womb
他许下诺言保护她的出产
She moved her body hard against a sharpened metal spoon
她的身子在尖锐的铁匙上挪移
She stopped the bloody rituals of passage to the moon
她停止了通往月亮的血腥祭礼
She took his much admired oriental frame of mind
她带走了他备受赞美的东方之思
And my heart of darkness alibi, his money hides behind
以及掩饰着他的钱财的黑心托辞
She took his blond Madonna and his monastery wine
她带走了他的金发圣母与修道美酒
This mental space is occupied and everything is mine
“心灵之所已被占据,一切为我所有”
He tried to make a final stand beside the railway track
他在铁道旁边试图进行最后的逆反
She said,The art of longing's over and it's never coming back
她说,“渴望的把戏结束,再不复还“
She took his tavern parliament, his cap, his cocky dance
她带走了他的酒馆议会,帽子,自负舞步
She mocked his female fashions and his working class mustache
她嘲笑他的女性气质和他工人阶级的胡须
Now, the last time that
我最后看见
I saw him he was trying hard to get
他为获女子教育而发奋
A woman's education but he's not a woman yet
但他至今没能成为女人
And the last time that
我最后看见
I saw her she was living with some boy
她跟一个男孩住在一起
Who gives her soul an empty room who gives her body joy
他给予她的灵魂以空隙,她的身体以欢愉
So the great affair is over but whoever would have guessed
风流韵事就此结束,想必各位都已猜出
It would leave us all so vacant and so deeply unimpressed
我们皆将因此感到深深的虚无与麻木
It's like our visit to the moon or to that other star
就像我们对月亮或其他星球的探索
I guess you go for nothing if you really want to go that far
尽管千里迢迢,我想还是终无所获
It's like our visit to the moon or to that other star
就像我们对月亮或其他星球的探索
I guess you go for nothing if you really want to go that far
尽管千里迢迢,我想还是终无所获
It's like our visit to the moon or to that other star
就像我们对月亮或其他星球的探索
I guess you go for nothing if you really want to go that far
尽管千里迢迢,我想还是终无所获
