Empty on the hours 空的时间

And empty on the days 和空对天

I've locked up all the doors 我已经锁定了所有的门

Take me on my way 把我对我的方式

   

Down a broken road of questions 下了破路的问题

That lead me to a lie 这使我的谎言

To a cold night in December 一个寒冷的夜晚十二月

When we both sat down to cry 当我们都坐下来哭泣

   

Now will you carve my name upon a stone? 现在你在一块石头刻我的名字？

Will you lay me down to rest? 你会躺下来休息？

Do you think I'll see my father's father 你以为我会看到我父亲的父亲

Do you think I'll pass his test? 你以为我会通过他的考验？

Will you whisper "Lord please keep me, 你会嘀咕：“主啊，请让我，

always walk right by my side"? 总是在我身边走正确“ ？

Will you place the coins upon my eyes 你会在我的眼前放置硬币

To pay the boatman for the ride? 支付船夫的拼车？

   

[Chorus:] [合唱： ]

Well I was standing in the drizzling rain 嗯，我正站在细雨

Just long enough to wash away my pain 只是足够长的时间来洗刷我的痛苦

And realize that she's never coming home 并认识到她从未回家

She said "I won't come back" 她说：“我不会再回来了”

I said "Don't come back, I'm better off alone" 我说： “你不回来，我最好单独”

   

She called me from a pay phone 她从公用电话打电话给我

South of San Antone 圣安东的南

And I could hear somebody talking 我能听到有人在说

But she swore she was alone 但她发誓，她独自一人

You know it sounded so familiar 你知道这听起来好熟悉

I pray to God that I am wrong 我祈祷上帝，我错了

I always thought she'd leave me 我一直以为她会离开我

I never dreamed he'd go along 我从来没有想过他会走

   

[Chorus X2] [合唱x ]

   

I'm better off alone 我最好一个人
