Written by:Jackson Browne
Though Adam was a friend of mine I did not know him well
虽然亚当是我的朋友可我和他不太熟
He was alone into his distance
他独自一人走向远方
He was deep into his well
他在井里越陷越深
I could guess what he was laughing at but I couldn't really tell
我能猜到他在笑什么但我真的看不出来
Now the story's told that Adam jumped but I've been thinking that he fell
据说亚当纵身一跃可我一直以为他是倒下了
Together we went traveling as we received the call
我们接到电话就一起去旅行
His destination India and I had none at all
他的目的地是印度而我一个都没有
Well I still remember laughing with our backs against the wall
我依然记得我们曾经背靠着墙哈哈大笑
So free of fear we never thought that one of us might fall
毫无恐惧我们从未想过会有人倒下
I sit before my only candle but it's so little light to find my way
我坐在我唯一的蜡烛前但它的光芒太小了我找不到方向
Now this story unfolds before my candle
现在这个故事在我的烛光下展开
Which is shorter every hour as it reaches for the day
白天的时间一小时比一小时短
But I feel just like a candle in the way
可我感觉自己就像一根蜡烛
I guess I'll get there but I wouldn't say for sure
我想我会成功的但我不敢肯定
When we parted we were laughing still as our goodbyes were said
分手时我们笑着互相道别
And I never heard from him again as each our lives we led
我再也没有他的消息我们过着各自的生活
Except for once in someone else's letter that I read
除了有一次我读到别人的信
Until I heard the sudden word that a friend of mine was dead
直到我突然听到一个消息说我的一个朋友死了
I sit before my only candle like a pilgrim sits beside the way
我坐在我唯一的蜡烛前就像朝圣者坐在路边
Now this journey appears before my candle
现在这段旅程出现在我的烛光下
As a song that's growing fainter the harder that I play
我越是努力弹奏这首歌就愈发黯淡
Til I fear before I end I'll fade away
直到我害怕在我结束之前我会消失得无影无踪
But I guess I'll get there though I wouldn't say for sure
但我想我会成功的尽管我不敢肯定
Though Adam was a friend of mine I did not know him long
虽然亚当是我的朋友但我认识他的时间不长
And when I stood myself beside him I never thought I was as strong
当我站在他身边我从未觉得自己如此强大
Still it seems he stopped his singing in the middle of his song
似乎他的歌唱到一半就停了
Well I'm not the one to say I know but I'm hoping he was wrong
我不能说我知道但我希望他是错的
I'm holding out my only candle though it's so little light to find my way
我举着我唯一的蜡烛虽然我找不到路
Now this story's been laid beneath my candle
现在这个故事已经在我的面前尘埃落定
And it's shorter every hour as it reaches for the day
白天的时间一小时比一小时短
Yes I feel just like a candle in a way
我感觉自己就像一根蜡烛
I hope I'll get there but I never pray
我希望我能成功但我从不祈祷
