歌词
The Smoky Life — Leonard Cohen
I`ve never seen your eyes so wide
我从未领略过你视野的这般开阔
I`ve never seen your appetite quite this occupied
也未曾体会过你如此的欲壑难填
Elsewhere is your feast of love
别处总能是你的挚爱
I know, where long ago we agreed to keep it light
我知道，在很久的以前，我们就允诺保持低调
So let`s be married one more night
所以我们，不如就只在今夜再度连理
It`s light, light enough
它是如此的轻描淡写，以至于
to let it go
一切都会烟消云散
It`s light, enough to let it go
而又如此的轻如鸿毛，一切都将不复存在
Remember when the scenery started fading
犹记那时，目之所及的色彩，开始缓缓褪去
I held you `til you learned to walk on air
而我也在你春分得意之时，抽身离开
So don`t look down, the ground is gone
着眼前方吧，只因故土，早已今非昔比
there`s no one waving anyway
也早已，无人在候
The smoky life is practised everywhere
既然这灰色的人生成了生活的基调
So set your restless heart at ease
那不如就，先搁置你那凌乱的心绪在一旁
Take a lesson from these autumn leaves
试着从那些凋零的秋叶中吸取到教训
They waste no time waiting for the snow
因为落叶不为落雪而停留
Don`t argue now, you`ll be late
你现在也不必辩解什么，一切都将是亡羊补牢
There is nothing to investigate
而这一切的一切，其实也都不值得深究
It`s light enough, light enough
它是如此的稍纵即逝，以至于这些
To let it go
都显得那么无关紧要
Light enough, to let it go
也似乎，都只是旁枝末节
Remember when the scenery started fading
依稀地记着，当眼前的画面逐渐支离破碎
I held you `til you learned to walk on air
而我在你忘乎所以时，不辞而别
So don`t look down, the ground is gone
放眼前方吧，故土早已物是人非多时
there`s no one waving anyway
也早已，无人等候
The Smoky life is practised everywhere
这灰色的人生俨然是生活的基调
Come on back give the moment lends
倘若感到似曾相识，不如干脆再续前缘
You can look upon my very closest friends
与我的挚友们，相知与相识
Light, light enough to let it go
这些终将都只是海市蜃楼
It`s light, light enough to let it go
飘渺而又无足轻重
