Record Year
Since you turned the tables on me
當你離我而去之時
Ive been steady and learnin lonely
我曾黯然神傷，獨自學會爬起
Keepin this turntable spinnin
而今唱機轉盤正緩慢旋轉
Everything from Jones to Jennings
往事也隨之倒帶播放
Slowly plannin my survival
我漸漸舔舐傷痛
In a three-foot stack of vinyl
將自己置身於音樂創作之中
Since you had to walk on outta here
當你離我而去之後
Ive been havin a record year
我卻堅強前行，碩果累累
I bet you thought before you left
你一定以為當你走後
Id just sit in silence by myself
我將黯然神傷
Turn this house into a jail
我將封閉自己
Dyin slow in a livin hell
我將了無生機
But loves got a funny way of keepin score
但柳暗花明才是生活真諦
And your leavin lit up my scoreboard
而你的離開卻讓我煥然一新
I usually make it through side a sober
我曾努力自己保持清醒
All bets are off when I flip her over
但自她走後我就開始放縱自己
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
今朝有酒今朝醉
Im havin a record year
如今我正閃閃發光
Quarter notes and Hanks half time
音符飄動
Are poundin on this heart of mine
我醉心於此
Song to song, I pass my time
獨唱獨奏，時光逍遙
With these speakers on ten
聲樂嘹亮
Your good-and-gone keeps me up all night
想起你的好，你的壞，我輾轉難眠
Along with Songs In The Key Of Life
伴隨著'生命之歌'的旋律
Im either gonna get over you
我將漸漸把你忘記
Or Im gonna blow out my ears
我發誓我將把你忘記
Yeah, youre out there now
現在你又已離我而去
Doin God knows how, and Im stuck here
而不知為何，我還再為你傷心
Havin a record year
不，我將活得更加出彩
Your leavin left me goin crazy
你的離開曾讓我變得癲狂
Im countin on a needle to save me
我只好用音樂來安慰自己
I drop it in the groove
在音樂大道上，我漸趨完美
And we go round and round
我們將不斷前行
And down in a spiral
我們將盤旋前進
I guess I really oughta call and thank you
我想我真應該好好感謝你
I rediscovered Red Headed Stranger
是你再次激發起我音樂的靈感
Got down with old James Brown
我開始用靈魂進行創作
And found New Grass Revival
我開始找到自己的音樂風格
If you find your way back, I owe you a beer
若再次遇見你，我將請你喝酒
For my record year
來慶祝我這靈感爆發的一年
Quarter notes and Hanks half time
音符飄動
Are poundin on this heart of mine
我醉心於此
Song to song, I pass my time
獨唱獨奏，時光逍遙
With these speakers on ten
聲樂嘹亮
Your good-and-gone keeps me up all night
想起你的好，你的壞，我輾轉難眠
Along with Songs In The Key Of Life
伴隨著'生命之歌'的旋律
Im either gonna get over you
我將漸漸把你忘記
Or Im gonna blow out my ears
我發誓我將把你忘記
Yeah, youre out there now
現在你已經離我而去
Doin God knows how, but Im stuck here
而不知為何，我還再為你傷心
Havin a record year
不，我將活得更加出彩
Yeah, Im havin a record year
是的，音樂讓我大放異彩！
