Down by the River - Albert Hammond

以下歌词翻译由微信翻译提供

City life was gettin us down

都市生活让我们心灰意冷

So we spent the weekend out of town

所以我们在城外度过了周末

Pitched the tent

搭起帐篷

On the patch of ground

在一片地上

Down by the river

在河边

Lit a fire and drank some wine

生起一堆火喝点酒

You put your jeans

你穿上牛仔裤

On the top of mine

站在我的巅峰

Said come in the water's fine

我说下水来也没关系

Down by the river

在河边

Down by the river

在河边

Down by the river

在河边

Said come in the water's fine

我说下水来也没关系

Down by the river

在河边

Didn＇t feel too good all night

整晚都感觉不太好

So we took a walk

所以我们出去走走

In the morning light

在晨光中

Came across the strangest sight

看到了最奇怪的场景

Down by the river

在河边

Silver fish lay on it's side

一条银色的鱼躺在船边

It was washed up

一切荡然无存

By the early tide

在潮汐褪去之前

I wonder how it died

我想知道它怎么死的

Down by the river

在河边

Down by the river

在河边

Down by the river

在河边

Silver fish lay on it's side

一条银色的鱼躺在船边

Down by the river

在河边

Doctor put us both to bed

医生让我们躺在床上

He dosed us up

他给我们下了药

And he shook his head

他摇摇头

Only foolish people go

只有愚蠢的人才会离去

He said

他说

Down by the river

在河边

Why do willows weep said he

柳树为何哭泣他说

Because they're dying gradually

因为他们渐渐死去

From the waste

来自浪费

From the factories

来自工厂

Down by the river

在河边

Down by the river

在河边

Down by the river

在河边

Why do willows weep said he

柳树为何哭泣他说

Down by the river

在河边

In time

总有一天

The river banks will die

河岸也会消失

The reeds will wilt

芦苇终会凋零

And the ducks won't fly

鸭子不会飞

There'll be a tear in the otter's eye

我会热泪盈眶

Down by the river

在河边

The banks will soon

银行很快就会

Be black and dead

变成黑人死去

And where the otter raised his head

就在那只海怪抬起头的地方

Will be a clean white stone instead

将会变成一颗洁白的宝石

Down by the river

在河边

Down by the river

在河边

Down by the river

在河边

The banks will soon

银行很快就会

Be black and dead

变成黑人死去

Down by the river

在河边

Down by the river

在河边

Down by the river

在河边

The banks will soon

银行很快就会

Be black and dead

变成黑人死去

Down by the river

在河边
