The Visit

I'm so glad that you stopped in
你顺道来此歇脚 真好
And I had some things to say
我曾有三言两语 欲告
But now they've been forgotten
惜现已尽忘
They'll get said a different day
或另择良辰
They'll get said a different way
或再费口舌
'Cause everything keeps changing
万事难如初
Life is always raging
生活总在咆哮
Beyond the walls and cages
撞向高墙坚笼
Everybody changes
人们都会变
Till tomorrow's yesterday
到明日回望昨天
I'm so glad that you stopped by
你顺道来此歇息 真好
And I will not ask you why
我放弃了质问 不再纠缠
It's just good to see you
能见到你 就好
You always make me smile
是你教会我笑
And you always make me sigh
教会我叹息
Sometimes I still wonder
我仍时有疑惑
Why the sounds of distant thunder
那远雷的低吼
Always pulled you under
是如何回回将你笼罩
While you searched
当你溯洄从之
But never found her
蒹葭苍苍
While she always got away
只在水中央
And somewhere on the hill
山间某处
Inside the past we hear the bells
依稀可闻昔日铃声
Catching only parts of thoughts
思绪的尾巴被按住
And fragments of ourselves
我们的气息被捕获
Till we begin
于是我们重新
Again
重新启程

真的 你在这儿 真好
I'm so glad that you are here
我想 岁月飞逝 我懂
And I know that it's been years
见到你 只剩平静的欢喜
I'm just glad to see you
无心再落泪
And there's no need for tears
时间的密友是惶恐
Time's best friend is fear
它循迹找到我们
That's how it can find us
赐以慈悲
And do its greatest kindness
我们才醍醐灌顶
Always to remind us
明白只有自己的时间
That it's our only time inside
是被躯壳所掌握的
This body and this mind
心间某处
And somewhere in my mind
我看到眼帘遮住的往昔
Behind closed eyes I see the past
捉住匆碌的每一瞬间
Catching every moment that went by
使我能赶上重新启程的班机
To make it last till I begin
重新启程
Again
