Simple Twist of Fate 这命运的曲折交错

They sat together in the park As the evening sky grew dark She looked at him and he felt a spark tingle to his bones 'Twas then he felt alone and wished that he'd gone straight And watched out for a simple twist of fate 他们肩并着肩坐在公园正当傍晚的天夜色渐暗她望向他，他感到一阵火花，刺得他骨头酥麻他突然觉得孤单，多希望自己能径直离开并提防着，这命运的曲折交错

They walked along by the old canal A little confused, I remember well And stopped into a strange hotel with a neon burnin' bright He felt the heat of the night hit him like a freight train Moving with a simple twist of fate 他们沿着老旧的运河走过他有些迷惑，我清楚地记得停步在陌生的旅馆，明亮的霓虹闪烁他感到夜晚的热浪袭来，像是货运列车把他碾过驶向远方，这命运的曲折交错

A saxophone someplace far off played As she was walkin' on by the arcade As the light bust through a beat-up shade where he was wakin' up She dropped a coin into the cup of a blind man at the gate And forgot about a simple twist of fate 远方某处的萨克斯风奏响正当她穿行走过房廊残破的窗帘中透出一束光，他也快醒了她落下一枚硬币，留在门前盲人的杯里便忘记了，这命运的曲折交错

He woke up, the room was bare He didn't see her anywhere He told himself he didn't care, pushed the window open wide Felt an emptiness inside to which he just could not relate Brought on by a simple twist of fate 他醒来，屋内已空他到处不见她的影踪他告诉自己无需在意，大大地推开了窗他觉得内心一阵空荡，不知该作何感想只是因为，这命运的曲折交错

He hears the ticking of the clocks And walks along with a parrot that talks Hunts her down by the waterfront docks where the sailors all come in Maybe she'll pick him out again, how long must he wait One more time for a simple twist of fate 他听见钟声嘀嗒同会说话的鹦鹉一起出发他去滨水码头追寻她，那儿有来来往往的水手或许她会再次认出他，他究竟还要等待多久又一次的，这命运的曲折交错

People tell me it's a sin To know and feel too much within I still believe she was my twin, but I lost the ring She was born in spring, but I was born too late Blame it on a simple twist of fate 人们对我说，这是种罪过知晓得太多，心绪也太多我仍坚信她是我的另一半，可我弄丢了戒指她出生在春天，我却出生得太迟只好责怪，这命运的曲折交错

You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go 当你离去，我该是多么寂寞

I've seen love go by my door It's never been this close before Never been so easy or so slow I've been shooting in the dark too long When somethin's not right it's wrong Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go 我曾看见爱由我门前经过它从未如此地靠近我从未如此轻松也从未迟缓我一直在黑暗中猜测摸索每当事情不太对劲，那无非就是出了差错当你离去，我该是多么寂寞

Dragon clouds so high above I've only known careless love It always has hit me from below But this time around it's more correct Right on target, so direct Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go 如龙般的云在天空高挂着我所仅知的爱就是无忧无虑的它总能深深地伤到我心窝可这一次却好了许多正中目标，直击向我当你离去，我该是多么寂寞

Purple clover, Queen Anne lace Crimson hair across your face You could make me cry if you don't know Can't remember what I was thinkin' of You might be spoilin' me too much, love Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go 紫色的四叶草，安妮皇后的蕾丝花边深红色的头发垂在你的侧脸你知道吗，当你离去，我会泪流满面我记不清自己在想些什么亲爱的，或许你已宠坏了我当你离去，我该是多么寂寞

Flowers on the hillside, bloomin' crazy Crickets talkin' back and forth in rhyme Blue river runnin' slow and lazy I could stay with you forever and never realize the time 山坡上，鲜花盛开着蟋蟀在韵律中来回哼唱着蓝色的溪水慵懒地流淌着我愿永远和你在一起，连时间流逝也不顾了

Situations have ended sad Relationships have all been bad Mine've been like Verlaine's and Rimbaud But there's no way I can compare All those scenes to this affair Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go 如今的结局让人难过所有的关系都面目全非了你我好似是魏尔伦与兰波可无论如何我也不能拿那些场景与此情并论当你离去，我该是多么寂寞

Yer gonna make me wonder what I'm doin' Stayin' far behind without you Yer gonna make me wonder what I'm sayin' Yer gonna make me give myself a good talkin' to 你使我不知该做些什么只好远远落在你身后你使我不知该说些什么你使我开始反省，重新审视自我

I'll look for you in old Honolulu San Francisco, Ashtabula Yer gonna have to leave me now, I know But I'll see you in the sky above In the tall grass, in the ones I love Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go 我会去找你，一路去到火奴鲁鲁呀去到旧金山，去到阿什塔比拉你必须得离开我了，我明白的但我会同你再见，就在天空的方向在高高的草场，在我爱的每个人身上当你离去，我该是多么寂寞
