string man

You can say the soul is gone
你會說靈魂已去
And the feeling is just not there
感覺已不復存在
Not like it was so long ago
不再像很久以前
On the empty page before you
眼下是空白的頁章
You can fill in what you care
你可以寫下你所在乎的
Try to make it new before you go
在你離去前盡力寫成新的一頁
Take the simple case of the serge
比如，那個軍士（sarge）
Who wouldnt go back to war
將不再返回戰爭
Cause the hippies tore down everything that he was fighting for
源於嬉皮士們搞砸了一切
Or the lovers on the blankets
他為之奮鬥的
That the city turned to whores
或是，毯子上的情侶們
With memories of green kissed by the sun.
讓城市彷彿淪為妓院
You can say the soul is gone
帶著被太陽親吻的綠色記憶
And close another door
你會說靈魂已去
Just be sure that yours is not the one
又關掉了一扇門
And Im singing for the stringman
相信你要的並不是那個
Who lately lost his wife
我為這個樂手而唱
There is no dearer friend of mine
他剛剛失去了妻子
That I know in this life
我知道在我的生命中
On his shoulder rests a violin
沒有比他更親近的朋友了
For his head where chaos reigns
小提琴依靠在他的肩上
But his heart cant find a simple way
他的頭腦卻亂的一塌糊塗
To live with all those things
他的心甚至找不到一個簡單的方式
All those things
去和所有那些事情相處
Hes a stringman
所有那些
A stringman
他是一個樂手
All those strings to pull
一個樂手
