- Allan Taylor endless highway 歌詞
- Allan Taylor
- I was just a kid of sixteen
我只是個16歲的少年，
I wasn't even grown
我甚至沒有長大，
looking for a new direction
尋找著新的人生方向，
A road to call my own
一條只屬於自己的路。
And I found it in the songs of Woody Guthrie
直到我在Woody Guthrie的歌裡找尋到，
Of the lost and dispossessed
關於種種迷惘和失去。
I found it in the arms of the night-time girls
在夜色下女孩的懷抱中找尋到，
Who held me to their breast
是誰把我摟在胸前。
我不在意財富，
I did not care for fortune
我不在意虛名，
I did not care for fame
我拋棄多餘的慈念，
I threw away a lot of kindness
或許這只能怪自己吧。
I only have myself to blame
對那些曾經蔭庇過我、
For there were some who gave me shelter
幫助過我人們，
And some who eased my way
但不管他們做了什麼，
But no matter what they offered
也不能使我停留，
They could never make me stay
這便是我渴望的一切。
It was all I ever wanted
我所知的一切，
All I ever knew
便是流浪那無盡頭的公路，
To ride that endless highway
為你唱我自己寫的歌。
And sing my songs for you
或許某人會向你承諾，
And some will make you promises
但千萬別當真，
But that doesn't make it true
虛無中透著虛無。
Nothing is for nothing
你要償還你的債務，
You have to pay your dues
現在我身無分文了，
And now my pocket's empty
算好了每筆開支，
And the reckoning is made
我不再虧欠任何人，
I owe nobody nothing
因為再也沒有償還的種種。
'Cause every bill is paid
這便是我渴望的一切。
It was all I ever wanted
我所知的一切，
All I ever knew
便是流浪那無盡頭的公路，
To ride that endless highway
為你唱我自己寫的歌。
And sing my songs for you
我還沒到旅程的終點，
但我知道那天遲早將至。
I've not made it yet to journey's end
於是我低頭凝視腳下無盡的長路，
But I know the day will come
轉身朝向家的方向。
When I look down that endless highway
我會路過那些新上路者的美夢，
And I turn and head for home
鼓舞他們的前行，
And I'll pass the dream to someone new
我會緊握他們的雙手，深深的致意，
And help them on their way
然後看他們遠去。
I'll shake their hands and wish them well
這便是我渴望的一切。
And watch them walk away
我知道我能做的一切，
It was all I ever wanted
便是流浪那無盡頭的公路，
All I ever knew
為你唱我自己寫的歌。
To ride that endless highway
And sing my songs for you
