Blue Valentines - Tom Waits (汤姆·威兹)

She sends me blue valentines

她从遥远的费城

All the way from philadelphia

给我寄来了蓝色情人节的礼物

To mark the anniversary

只是为了纪念

Of someone that I used to be

我曾经是她的爱人

And it feels just like there's

那感觉就像是

A warrant out for my arrest

极度渴望成为我感情的俘虏

Baby you got me checkin' in my rearview mirrror

宝贝 你总是无处不在 我总能从我的汽车后视镜里看到你

And I'm always on the run

而我总是四处奔波 永不停息

That's why I change my name

那就是我更名换姓的原因

And I didn't think you'd ever find me here

我以为你永远都不会发现我在这里

To send me blue valentines

给我寄来蓝色情人节的礼物

Like half forgotten dreams

这感觉就像是已经遗忘了一半的梦 让我纠结不已

Like a pebble in my shoe

就像是钻进我鞋子里的一块小石头 使我忍受折磨

As I walk these streets

当我行走在这些街道上

And the ghost of your memory

你记忆的幽灵

Is the thistle in the kiss

就像是热吻之中突然出现的苦涩

And the burgler that can break a roses neck

就像一个入室盗窃者破坏了一次浪漫的热吻

It's the tattooed broken promise

就像是已经不可改变的破碎的誓言

That I hide beneath my sleeve

我将其深深隐藏

And I see you every time I turn my back

每一次我转身都能够看见你

She sends me blue valentines

她给我寄来蓝色情人节的礼物

Though I try to remain at large

尽管我试图对此置若罔闻 仍然自得其乐

They're insisting that our love

但人们仍然坚持以为

Must have a culogy

我们坚定不移的爱情绝对值得赞颂

Why do I save all of this madness

我该如何制止这种疯狂的行为呢

In the nightstand drawer

在床头柜的抽屉里

There to haunt upon my shoulders

都是你送给我的那些让我倍感压力的东西

Baby I know

宝贝我知道

I'd be luckier to walk around everywhere I go

我在迷茫与绝望的情况下

With a blind and broken heart

还能四处游荡 是多么幸运

That sleeps beneath my lapel

我的西装翻领的下面

She sends me blue valentines

那是她送给我的蓝色情人节礼物

To remind me of my cardinal sin

不断地提醒着我 我犯下的重罪

I can never wash the guilt

我永远都无法洗净自己的罪孽

Or get these bloodstains off my hands

或者清除干净自己手上的血迹

And it takes a lot of whiskey

我纵情豪饮 喝得酩酊大醉

To make these nightmares go away

只是为了让这些噩梦远离我

And I cut my bleedin' heart out every nite

每一个夜晚 我都极力折磨自己伤痕累累的心

And I die a little more on each st valentine day

每一次情人节 我都感觉我离死亡更近一点

Don't you remember that I promised I would

难道你不记得我曾承诺过

Write you

我会写信给你

These blue valentines

就在蓝色情人节的时候

Blue valentines

蓝色情人节

Blue valentines

蓝色情人节
