America – 英语/中文 双语歌词

• 作者: Simon & Garfunkel

歌词与翻译

[中文]

让我们做恋人吧 将命运紧紧相连

我帆布袋里还揣着几张地契

于是买了包香烟和瓦格纳太太的派

踏上寻找美国的旅程

...

"凯西" 登上匹兹堡的灰狗巴士时我说

"密歇根如今恍如梦境"

我花了四天从萨吉诺搭车而来

只为寻找美国踪迹

巴士上笑声荡漾

对着窗外面孔幻想

她说华达呢西装的男人是间谍

我提醒"当心 他的领带藏着摄像头"

...

"扔支烟来 雨衣里或许还剩一支"

"最后一支一小时前已燃尽"

我凝望风景 她翻阅杂志

旷野上明月渐升

...

"凯西 我迷路了"明知她已熟睡仍低语

莫名空虚又怅然

数着新泽西高速路上川流的车辆

人们都来寻找美国

都来寻找美国

都来寻找美国

...

[英语]

"Let us be lovers, we'll marry our fortunes together

I've got some real estate here in my bag"

So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner pies

And walked off to look for America

"Kathy", I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh

"Michigan seems like a dream to me now"

It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw

I've gone to look for America

Laughing on the bus

Playing games with the faces

She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy

I said "Be careful, his bowtie is really a camera"

"Toss me a cigarette, I think there's one in my raincoat"

"We smoked the last one an hour ago"

So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine

And the moon rose over an open field

"Kathy, I'm lost", I said, though I knew she was sleeping

I'm empty and aching and I don't know why

Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike

They've all come to look for America

All come to look for America

All come to look for America
