歌手 Harry Chapin Taxi

It was raining hard in 'Frisco
旧金山大雨正倾盆
I needed one more fare to make my night
我等待着今夜最后一单
A lady up ahead waved to flag me down
一位女士招手唤我停车
She got in at the light
她裹着夜色上了车
Oh, where you going to, my lady blue
噢,忧郁的女士,你要去哪
It's a shame you ruined your gown in the rain
真抱歉大雨弄脏了你的华服
She just looked out the window, she said
她只是看向窗外说
"Sixteen Parkside Lane"
公园路16号
Something about her was familiar
她有着熟悉的感觉
I could swear I'd seen her face before
我发誓曾见过她的脸
But she said, "I'm sure you're mistaken"
但她说,你一定认错了
And she didn't say anything more
然后便不再说话
It took a while, but she looked in the mirror
过了一会,她看向车里的后视镜
And she glanced at the license for my name
看向执照中我的名字
A smile seemed to come to her slowly
她脸上缓缓浮现笑容
It was a sad smile, just the same
忧愁的笑,昔日重现
And she said, "How are you Harry?
"她说,“哈利,你还好吗”
I said, "How are you Sue?
我说,“苏,你还好吗
Through the too many miles
距离很远
And the too little smiles
笑容很浅
I still remember you"
但我没忘记你“
It was somewhere in a fairy tale
昨日宛如童话
I used to take her home in my car
我曾载你回家
We learned about love in the back of the Dodge
我们在后座学习爱情
The lesson hadn't gone too far
这场景还留存
You see, she was gonna be an actress
她渴望成为演员
And I was gonna learn to fly
我渴望学习飞翔
She took off to find the footlights
于是她追寻舞台
And I took off to find the sky
我追寻天空
Whoa, I've got something inside me
在灵魂深处
To drive a princess blind
我能迷惑公主
There's a wild man, wizard
有一个巫师
He's hiding in me, illuminating my mind
在我心里,照亮灵魂
Oh, I've got something inside me
在灵魂深处
Not what my life's about
并不是我现在的生活
'Cause I've been letting my outside tide me
因为我被现实
Over 'till my time, runs out
裹挟了太久太久
Baby's so high that she's skying
她在高飞
Yes she's flying, afraid to fall
畏惧坠落
I'll tell you why baby's crying
我会告诉你她为什么在哭
'Cause she's dying, aren't we all
因为她正死去,正如我们
There was not much more for us to talk about
言语停滞
Whatever we had once was gone
昨日已逝
So I turned my cab into the driveway
车头转向道路
Past the gate and the fine trimmed lawns
身后是她家大门和草坪
And she said we must get together
她说我们改日再会
But I knew it'd never be arranged
但我知道这不可能
And she handed me twenty dollars
车费2.5美元
For a two fifty fare, she said
她递给我20元
"Harry, keep the change" ”
哈利,不用找了“
Well, another man might have been angry
那个男人或许愤怒
And another man might have been hurt
那个男人或许受伤
But another man never would have let her go
但那个男人则能让她离开
I stashed the bill in my shirt
我把钱放入衬衫
And she walked away in silence
她无声离去
It's strange, how you never know
多么奇怪,我们竟没意识到
But we'd both gotten what we'd asked for
我们都得到了自己想要的
Such a long, long time ago
一直,一直以来
You see, she was gonna be an actress
你看,她曾追逐演员梦
And I was gonna learn to fly
而我渴望着天空
She took off to find the footlights
她走向舞台
I took off for the sky
我飞向天空
And here, she's acting happy
此时此刻,她表演着快乐
Inside her handsome home
在她华丽的房子里演出
And me, I'm flying in my taxi
而我开着出租车飞驰
Taking tips, and getting stoned
收着小费,终日迷醉沉沦
I go flying so high, when I'm stoned
在迷幻中冲向云霄
