噢,不知是海尋找到了光
或是魚兒游進了海的夢境
從什麼空氣,取得這復氧
何來這份雕朽如神奇本事
連教你矢口否認夢在弔謊
倍支我的心靈,毫無預警
在光微和影子的脹縮之間
你的唇語分明,諸神退位
一切至尊的肉身不再作聲
哦,他們都具有一種保證
能使悠闇的海洋,更明媚
對于我,這超越一切至善
你該覺得我變傻了,更是
使我嘴角毫無抗拒地上揚
Tom Waits -
Back in the good old world
When I was a boy, the moon was pearl
The sun a yellow gold.
When I was a man, the wind blew cold
The hills were upside down.
But now that I have gone from here
There's no place I'd rather be
Than to float my chances on the tide
Back in the good old world
On October's last I'll fly back home
Rolling down winding way
Scarecrows are all dressed in rags
Out at the edge of the field I lay
And all I've got's a pocket full
Of flowers on my grave
Oh but summer is gone, I remember it best
Back in the good old world
All I've got's a pocket full
Of flowers on my grave
Oh but summer is gone, and I remember it best
Back in the good old world
