Spirit on the Water
Spirit on the water
Darkness on the face of the deep
I keep thinking about you baby
I can’t hardly sleep
I’m traveling by land
Traveling through the dawn of day
You’re always on my mind
I can’t stay away
I’d forgotten about you
Then you turned up again
I always knew
That we were meant to be more than friends
When you are near
It’s just as plain as it can be
I’m wild about you, gal
You ought to be a fool about me
Can’t explain
The sources of this hidden pain
You burned your way into my heart
You got the key to my brain
I’ve been trampling through mud
Praying to the powers above
I’m sweating blood
You got a face that begs for love
Life without you
Doesn’t mean a thing to me
If I can’t have you
I’ll throw my love into the deep blue sea
Sometimes I wonder
Why you can’t treat me right
You do good all day
Then you do wrong all night
When you’re with me
I’m a thousand times happier than I could ever say
What does it matter
What price I pay
They brag about your sugar
Brag about it all over town
Put some sugar in my bowl
I feel like laying down
I’m pale as a ghost
Holding a blossom on a stem
You ever seen a ghost? No
But you have heard of them
I hear your name
Ringing up and down the line
I’m saying it plain
These ties are strong enough to bind
I been in a brawl
Now I’m feeling the wall
I’m going away baby
I won’t be back ’til fall
High on the hill
You can carry all my thoughts with you
You’ve numbed my will
This love could tear me in two
I wanna be with you in paradise
And it seems so unfair
I can’t go back to paradise no more
I killed a man back there
You think I’m over the hill
You think I’m past my prime
Let me see what you got
We can have a whoppin’ good time

灵在水上
渊面黑暗
我一直想你宝贝
难以成眠
陆路旅行
穿越晨曦
你始终在心上
无法分离
也有过遗忘
之后又出现
我始终都明白
我们之间注定不止友谊
当你在近旁
事实明彻无比
我为你疯狂,姑娘
你理应因我而痴迷
无从解释
这隐痛缘起
你燃烧着进入心房
你弄到了我头脑钥匙
我在泥泞中跋涉
向天上王权祈望
我身上流着汗血
你有一张乞爱面庞
人生若没有你
便于我毫无意义
假如未将你拥有
我会将爱弃于深蓝海底
有时我想
为何你不能好好待我
白天你都好
夜晚你一错再错
你与我一起时
我千倍的快乐无法言说
我付出什么代价
那又有什么关系
他们吹捧你的糖
吹得全城沸沸扬扬
给我碗里来点儿吧
我觉得我得躺一躺
我苍白得像幽魂
捏着一枝花的花茎
你见过幽魂吗?没有
但你听说过他们
我听见了你的名字
它响着声渐行渐远
我话说得很清楚
这些结牢固得彼此相连
我被卷进了一场争执
现在感觉在碰壁
我得走了宝贝
再回来要等秋季
从那高高山岗
你可以拿走我所有思索
你麻木了我的意志
这爱情能把我撕成两截
我想和你共在天堂
而这似乎太不正当
我不可能再回天堂了
我杀了一个人,就在那地方
你以为我过了巅峰
你以为我已风光不再
让我瞧瞧你有什么
我们会玩得非常痛快
注:“流着汗血”, sweat blood,英语中寓意“累死累活地干,忧虑万分”。
