Its desert ice outside
外面是冰涼的荒漠
but this diner has thawed my ears
但是這個小餐館已經溫暖了我凍僵的耳朵
Hot coffee in a clean white mug and a smile
當女服務員聽到
when the waitress hears
我出生在北卡羅來納州的時候
That I was born in north carolina
她微笑著遞過來一杯熱咖啡
Not an hour from her home town
那裡離她的家不過一小時路程
And we used to play the same pizza parlor pinball
我們曾在同一個披薩店玩過彈球
And theres a glance in time
時間一下子停滯下來
suspended as I wonder how it is
不知為何
Weve been swept up just by circumstance
我們一下子都被包裹在這樣的氛圍中
to where the coyote lives
彷彿間回到了那個有郊狼生活的地方
Where my days are strips of highway
在那裡我每天都像生活在公路片中一樣
And shes wiping tables down
她擦了擦桌子
Holding on and still waiting for that windfall
站在那裡等著我的小費
But Ive come home
但是我已經到家了
Even though Ive never had so far to go
雖然我從來沒有這麼長的路要走
[03:04.01][05:22.80] Ive come home
我已經到家了
I pay the check and leave the change
歸家(沃爾特的歌)
from a crumpled ten-dollar bill
我結了賬,並且留下了
Head across the street
一張皺巴巴的十元鈔票當做小費
where vacancy is burning in neon still
向街上走去
Well the night eats up my body heat
霓虹燈仍在閃爍
And theres no sign of another
夜晚一點點蠶食我身體的熱量
And I find myself slipping down into that black
街道上沒有其他人的跡象
But things are good Ive got
我發現自己正慢慢沒入黑暗中
a lot of followers of my faith
但是我已經找到了最美好的東西
Ive got a whole congregation
有了很多我信仰的追隨者
living inmy head these days
我有了一個追隨我的團體
And Im preaching from the pulpit
這些天他們一直在我腦海中
To cries of“Amen brother”
當我在講台上宣講時
Closing my eyes to feel the warmth come back
呼喊著“阿門兄弟”時
And Ive come home
閉上我的眼睛,去感覺這歸家的溫暖
Even though I swear Ive never been so alone
我已經到家了
I just want to be living as Im dying
即使我發誓我從來沒有那麼孤單
Just like everybody here
我已經到家了
Just want to know my little
我只是想像自己正在死去那樣生活
flicker of time is worthwhile
像所有在這裡生活的人一樣
And I dont know where Im driving to
只是想弄清楚我的,小小的
But I know Im getting old
時間的變幻是值得的
And theres a blessing in every moment every mile
我不知道我將駛去何方
Thin white terry bars of soap
但是我知道我正慢慢變老
and a couple little plastic cups
路途上的每時每刻,每一公里,都有祝福圍繞
Old gideons bible in the nightstand

drawer saying“Go on open up”
歸家(沃爾特的歌)
Well Ill kneel down on the carpet here
細細的白色毛巾架
Though I never was sure of god
小小的塑料杯
Think tonight Ill give him the benefit of the doubt
床頭櫃上的老聖經
I switch off the lights and imagine
抽屜說:“來吧,打開它! ”
that waitress outlined in the bed
我跪在了地毯上
Her hair falling all around me
儘管我不曾確定是否有神存在
I smile and shake my head
但我想今晚我會去相信他
Well we all write our own endings
我關上燈,開始想像
And we all have our own scars
女服務員在床上的輪廓
But tonight I think I see what its all about
她的頭髮圍繞著我
Because Ive come home
我笑著搖搖頭
