I went to work for her that summer 我去的那年夏天为她工作

A teenage kid so far from home 一个十几岁的孩子远离家乡

She was a lonely widow woman 她是一个孤独的寡妇

Hell-bent to make it on her own 一意孤行，使她自己

We were a thousand miles from nowhere 我们是从哪儿千里

Wheat fields as far as I could see 麦田据我可以看到

Both needing something from each other 彼此都需要的东西

Not knowing yet what that might be 不知道又是什么，可能是

   

'Til she came to me one evening 直到她来到了我一个晚上，

Hot cup of coffee and a smile 一杯热咖啡和微笑

In a dress that I was certain 在一件衣服，我一定

She hadn't worn in quite a while 她没有穿在相当长一段时间

There was a difference in her laughter 有她的笑声差异

There was a softness in her eyes 有在她的眼睛柔软

And on the air there was a hunger 而在空气中有一种饥饿感

Even a boy could recognize 即使是一个小男孩能识别

   

She had a need to feel the thunder 她有必要感到雷霆

To chase the lightning from the sky 从天空追逐闪电

To watch a storm with all its wonder 看一场风暴，所有的奇迹

Raging in her lover's eyes 愤怒的她情人的眼睛

She had to ride the heat of passion 她骑的激情热

Like a comet burning bright 像一颗彗星火亮

Rushing headlong in the wind 在风中哗哗倒栽葱

Now where only dreams have been 现在，这里只是梦想已经

Burning both ends of the night 燃烧的夜晚的两端

   

That summer wind was all around me 那年夏天的风是我周围的一切

Nothing between us but the night 我们不过夜之间没什么

When I told her that I'd never 当我告诉她，我从来没有

She softly whispered that's alright 她小声地说这是正常的

And then I watched her hands of leather 然后我看着牛皮她的手

Turn to velvet in a touch 转到丝绒的触感

There's never been another summer 从未有另一个夏天

When I have ever learned so much 当我曾经学到了很多

   

We had a need to feel the thunder 我们有必要感到雷霆

To chase the lightning from the sky 从天空追逐闪电

To watch a storm with all its wonder 看一场风暴，所有的奇迹

Raging in each others eyes 肆虐对方的眼睛

We had to ride the heat of passion 我们只好骑激情热

Like a comet burning bright 像一颗彗星火亮

Rushing headlong in the wind 在风中哗哗倒栽葱

Now where only dreams have been 现在，这里只是梦想已经

Burning both ends of the night 燃烧的夜晚的两端

   

I often think about that summer 每每想到那个夏天

The sweat, the moonlight and the lace 汗水，月光和花边

And I have rarely held another 我也很少举行另一

When I haven't seen her face 当我还没有看到她的脸

And every time I pass a wheat field 每次我经过一片麦田

And watch it dancing with the wind 看着它随风舞动

Although I know it isn't real 虽然我知道这是不是真实的

I just can't help but feel 我不禁感到

Her hungry arms again 她再饿武器

   

She had a need to feel the thunder 她有必要感到雷霆

To chase the lightning from the sky 从天空追逐闪电

To watch a storm with all its wonder 看一场风暴，所有的奇迹

Raging in her lover's eyes 愤怒的她情人的眼睛

She had to ride the heat of passion 她骑的激情热

Like a comet burning bright 像一颗彗星火亮

Rushing headlong in the wind 在风中哗哗倒栽葱

Now where only dreams have been 现在，这里只是梦想已经

Burning both ends of the night 燃烧的夜晚的两端

   

Rushing in long in the wind 奔波在漫长的风

Now where only dreams have been 现在，这里只是梦想已经

Burnin' both ends of the night 夜燃尽的两端
