地下街

• 作者: 周國賢

歌词:

[中文]

[English]

新宿街頭 十餘萬人

Downtown Shinjuku, over a hundred thousand people

怎麼竟然 撞回熟人

How come I bump into an old friend

問我共你 何解於街角擁吻

Ask me and you why we kiss at the street corner

私奔心情 突然下沉

Heart racing feeling, suddenly sinking down

小小戀情 若然被擒

Small little love, if caught in a trap

就會結束 欄途被責問

It will end, question from the side rails

當世界明路 行盡了

When the world’s clear, walking all the way

毋須見光 也許更美妙

No need for light, maybe even better that way

拖了天國 下來地底 不再受騷擾

Dragged heaven down to the underground, free from disturbance

整個商店街 沉沒了

The whole shopping street has sunk

無非要給你跟我製造 環迴迷路

Just to create a looping maze for you and me

沒完沒了

No end in sight

沒有 找到出口 出去也好

Can’t find an exit, better just leave

終點一世也未到

The journey’s not over, not even at the end

迷宮之中 你必須跟我好

In the maze, you must stay with me

途人們 相繼地回家

Passersby, gradually returning home

如果正在播 新聞報導

If the news is on now

題目會是 發現一對男女

The story might be about a pair of lovers

地底街裡失蹤

Lost inside the underground city

一生都不出去也好

Better not to ever go out in this lifetime

一街商店繼續掃

The shopping streets continue to clean

長居於此 何用再找地圖

Living here long, no need for maps anymore

疲勞時早報做被鋪

When tired, use the morning paper as a blanket

如果肚餓了 草餅當飯

If hungry, grass cakes become your meal

相愛到 忘了歸途

Loving until forgetting the way back

地底街 跟你終老

Underground city, aging with you

...

...

手拖喼還未磨蝕前

Before the suitcase wears thin

總可一齊滯留十年

We could stay together for ten years

坐厭麵店 行一圈花店 書店

Tired of noodle shops, wandering through florists, bookshops

東北西南蔓延沒完

Spreading in every direction, endless

都開僻成地牢樂園

Turning into dungeons turned amusement parks

若要探險 巡迴山手線

If you want to explore, circle the Yamanote line

當世界明路 行盡了

When the world’s clear, walking all the way

毋須見光 也許更美妙

No need for light, maybe even better that way

拖了天國 下來地底

Dragged heaven down to the underground

不再受騷擾

No more disturbances

整個商店街 沉沒了

The entire shopping street has sunk

無非要給你跟我製造

Just to create a looping maze for you and me

環迴迷路 沒完沒了

No end in sight

沒有 找到出口 出去也好

Can’t find an exit, better just leave

終點一世也未到

The journey’s not over, not even at the end

迷宮之中 你必須跟我好

In the maze, you must stay with me

途人們 相繼地回家

Passersby, gradually returning home

如果正在播 新聞報導

If the news is on now

題目繼續會是 這對男女

The story might continue about this couple

數個月來 搜索不到

Months of searching, still nothing found

...

...

東京街角的傳聞 在散佈

Rumors spread on Tokyo’s streets

都衷心祝我好

Everyone sincerely wishes me well

別人在談論時

While others talk about it

會說 換了他做 未必做到

They say if he did it, he might not succeed

誰能為 一點愛慕 一種態度

Who can show a little affection, a certain attitude

不顧一切的 來上訴

Unreservedly appealing

...

...

沒有 找到出口 出去也好

No way out, better just go

終點一世也未到

The journey’s not over, not even at the end

迷宮之中 你必須跟我好

In the maze, you must stay with me

途人們 相繼地回家

Passersby, gradually returning home

如果正在播 新聞報導

If the news is on now

題目會是 証實這對男女

The story might be about the truth of this couple

活得一切安好

Living happily together

一生都不出去也好

Better not to ever go out in this lifetime

一街商店繼續掃

The streets keep sweeping

長居於此 何用再找地圖

Living here long, no need for maps anymore

疲勞時早報做被鋪

When tired, use the morning paper as a blanket

如果肚餓了 草餅當飯

If hungry, grass cakes become your meal

相愛到 忘了歸途

Loving until forgetting the way back

地底街 跟你終老

Underground city, aging with you
