• 가수: Suzanne Vega

가사:

[English]

[中文]

Solitude stands by the window

孤独站在窗前

She turns her head as I walk in the room

当我走进房间，她转过头来

I can see by her eyes she's been waiting

从她的眼中我看出，她一直在等待

Standing in the slant of the late afternoon

站在斜阳的余晖中

And she turns to me with her hand extended

她转向我，伸出手

Her palm is split with a flower with a flame

她的手掌裂开，里藏着一朵火焰和花

Solitude stands in the doorway

孤独站在门口

And I'm struck once again by her black silhouette

我再次被她那黑色的剪影所震撼

By her long cool stare and her silence

她那冷静的长视线和沉默

I suddenly remember each time we've met

我突然想起每一次相遇

And she turns to me with her hand extended

她转向我，伸出手

Her palm is split with a flower with a flame

她的手掌裂开，里藏着一朵火焰和花

And she says "I've come to set a twisted thing straight"

她说：“我来把扭曲的事理弄明白”

And she says "I've come to lighten this dark heart"

她说：“我来点亮这颗黑暗的心”

And she takes my wrist, I feel her imprint of fear

她抓住我的手腕，我能感觉到她的恐惧

And I say "I've never thought of finding you here"

我说：“我从未想过在这里遇见你”

I turn to the crowd as they're watching

我转向人群，他们正在注视

They're sitting all together in the dark in the warm

他们全部坐在温暖的黑暗中

I wanted to be in there among them

我多么想融入其中

I see how their eyes are gathered into one

我看到他们的眼睛汇聚为一

And then she turns to me with her hand extended

然后她转向我，伸出手

Her palm is split with a flower with a flame

她的手掌裂开，里藏着一朵火焰和花

And she says "I've come to set a twisted thing straight"

她说：“我来把扭曲的事理弄明白”

And she says "I've come to lighten this dark heart"

她说：“我来点亮这颗黑暗的心”

And she takes my wrist, I feel her imprint of fear

她抓住我的手腕，我能感觉到她的恐惧

And I say "I've never thought of finding you here"

我说：“我从未想过在这里遇见你”

Solitude stands in the doorway

孤独站在门口

And I'm struck once again by her black silhouette

我再次被她那黑色的剪影所震撼

By her long cool stare and her silence

她那冷静的长视线和沉默

I suddenly remember each time we've met

我突然想起每一次相遇

And she turns to me with her hand extended

Her palm is split with a flower with a flame

她的手掌裂开，里藏着一朵火焰和花
