The Once And Future Carpenter - The Avett Brothers
I ain't from Texas
我并非从德州而来
But I made my way from Dallas
我从达拉斯出发
And I know the lonesome sound is following
我知道那寂寞的声音与我如影随形
And I ain't a gambler
我不是个赌徒
But I can recognize a hand
我能认出那个
And when to hold
我想牵的手
When queens are staring back at me
当王后紧盯着我的背后
Once I was a carpenter
曾经我是个木匠
And man my hands were calloused
我的双手长满老茧
I could swing a metal mallet sure and straight
我能随心所欲地挥舞金属锤
But I took to the highway
我走向高速公路
A poet young and hungry
一个年轻而又饥肠辘辘的诗人
And I left the timbers where they lay
我离开了那片大森林
Forever I will move like the world
我会像这个世界一样 步履不停
That turns beneath me
它在我脚下旋转
And when I lose my direction
当我迷失了方向
I'll look up to the sky
我就会仰望天空
And when the black cloak drags upon the ground
当夜幕笼罩大地
I'll be ready to surrender and remember
我已做好投降的准备 并且铭记
Well we're all in this together
我们都会在这里 团结一心
If I live the life I'm given
如果我接受命运安排的生活
I won't be scared to die
我就不惧怕死亡
And I don't come from Detroit
我并非来自底特律
But her diesel motors pull me
但她一直影响着我
And I followed till I finally lost my way
我将一直追求 直到我彻底迷失
And now I spend my days in search of a woman
现在我花费时间来追求一个人生伴侣
I called purpose
我将它命名决心
And if I ever pass back through her town
如果我曾路过了她的小镇
I'll stay
我将会留下来
Forever I will move like the world
我会像这个世界一样 步履不停
That turns beneath me
它在我脚下旋转
And when I lose my direction
当我迷失了方向
I'll look up to the sky
我就会仰望天空
And when the black dress drags upon the ground
当夜幕笼罩大地
I'll be ready to surrender and remember
我已做好投降的准备 并且铭记
Well we're all in this together
我们都会在这里 团结一心
If I live the life I'm given
如果我接受命运安排的生活
I won't be scared to die
我就不惧怕死亡
And my life is but a coin
我的生活就像一枚硬币
It'spulled from an empty pocket
从一个空空的口袋中掉出来
Dropped into a slot
掉进了一个水沟里
With dreams of sevens close behind
随之掉落的还有我的那些梦想
And these hopes and these fears go with it
这些希望和恐惧也一并掉落
And moon and the sun go spinning
日升月落
Like the numbers and fruits before our eyes
就像数字和果实一样 清晰可见
Sometimes I hit sometimes it robs me blind
有时候我能触及 有时候它也让我迷失
Sometimes I hit sometimes it robs me blind
有时候我能触及 有时候它也让我迷失
Forever I will move like the world
我会像这个世界一样 步履不停
That turns beneath me
它在我脚下旋转
And when I lose my direction
当我迷失了方向
I'll look up to the sky
我就会仰望天空
And when the black cloak drags upon the ground
当夜幕笼罩大地
I'll be ready to surrender and remember
我已做好退守的准备 并且铭记
Well we're all in this together
我们都会在这里 团结一心
If I live the life I'm given
如果我接受命运安排的生活
I won't be scared to die
我就不惧怕死亡
