I saw a friend that I once knew at a funeral 我看到一个朋友说，我曾经认识的一个葬礼

He took the time out to be seen 他花时间出去待观察

His eyes kept glancing to the hour hand 他的眼睛不停地扫视到时针

On the gold watch 在金表

That he'd been given by a magaze 他一直在一个给定的magaze

He didn't cry when the priest gave the sermon 他没有哭，当牧师给了布道

Just pulled up the woollen collar on his fleece 刚刚拉升羊毛衣领对他的羊毛

Crossed his arms gave a sigh and checked the time again 交叉双臂叹了口气，再次检查时

As he sat inches from the wife of the deceased 他坐在英寸从死者的妻子

   

He catches raindrops from his window 他从窗口捕捉雨滴

It reminds him of how we fall 它提醒我们如何落入他

From the stars back to our cities 从明星到我们的城市

Where we've never felt so small 我们从来没有觉得这么小

Raindrops from his window 从他的窗口雨滴

Making puddles in his hands 在他手中使水坑

He sees how quick the water's rising 他认为，如何快速水的上升

As another raindrop lands 至于另一雨滴土地

   

He took a chuffeur driven car back to his hotel 他花了chuffeur驱动车返回酒店

Passing through the city streets where he was born 穿过城市的街道，他出生传递

He said "Driver what's happened to these buildings? 他说：“司机发生了什么事，以这些建筑？

They all look rundown and so forlorn" 他们看起来都破旧等凄凉“

He took a shower in the bathroom of his penthouse 他在顶楼房屋的浴室洗了个澡

Put the 'do not disturb' on his door 把“请勿打扰”他的门

When the maid came in the morning 当女仆进来早晨

She found him shivering on the bedroom floor 她发现他颤抖着在卧室地板上

   

He catches raindrops from his window 他从窗口捕捉雨滴

It reminds him of how we fall 它提醒我们如何落入他

Raindrops from his window 从他的窗口雨滴

Making puddles in his hands 在他手中使水坑

He sees how quick the water's rising 他认为，如何快速水的上升

As another raindrop lands 至于另一雨滴土地

   

He catches raindrops from his window 他从窗口捕捉雨滴
