Captains And Cruise Ships

I am stuck in L.A.

Through the week and can't get away

And you're alone on the pier

In West Palm Beach on your holiday

Stormy night, reawake

the stomach ache that i've acquired

from feeling down, things look grim

and i'm so sick of being tired

apartment lights go dark

and it's depressing but what can i do?

the midnight streets feel dead

when i am so used to driving with you

brighter lights fill the night and

bluer skys reflect in your eyes

As I inspect and analyze

All of these dreams I don't recognize

if you're still up when the ships

in the port prepare to set sail

comb the beach and put those blue flowers up in your ponytail

inside my head

you're voice is still resounding but what can i do?

Empty rooms feel cold when I am so used to being with you

Count the stars, watch the waves absorb the summer sun

and think of me

when you explore hidden coves and tiny island chains throughout the sea

Can you still

hear my voice

when I'm outside from over the phone

For what its worth

darling dear

I wish you were here

Cause I feel alone

when you were home we'd sing but since you've left I don't hear anything

Though I feel so sad, I can't believe things are really that bad

Old captains and brand new cruise ships

Sailing over the briney sea

When I crashed my beloved desk job

And swim through the debris

I'll cut loose leave this mad house,bound for the Atlantic blue

I'll stroll down your treelined driveway

and sail the ocean with you

I am stuck in L.A. through the week and cant get away

這一周我被瑣事困在洛杉磯，無法脫身

And you're alone on the pier in West Palm Beach on your holiday

而你卻獨自在西棕櫚灘的海灣上渡假

Stormy nights, re-awake the stomach ache

我在那暴風雨經過的夜晚再次因為胃痛醒來

That I've acquired, from feeling down

自那之後，我感覺不會在愛了

Things look grim and I'm so sick of being tired

一切看上去都那樣糟糕，我也耐不住這身心的煎熬，病倒了

Apartment lights go dark and its depressing

公寓帶著壓抑的心情熄滅了燈

But what can I do?

但我又能做什麼呢？

The midnight streets feel dead. When I am so used to driving with you

當我習慣與你駕車穿過那些在黑夜中死寂的街道時，它們也是孤單的吧?

Brighter lights fill the night

夜空被繁星所佔據

And bluer skys reflect in your eyes

而更藍的天空在你的眼中有著清晰的倒影

As I inspect and analyze

我看得很仔細，仔細得出神

All of these dreams I don't recognize

這些夢境那樣真實，卻又那樣陌生

If you're still up when the ships in the port prepare to set sail

遊船準備離開港口起航的時候，你是否還在夢中？

Comb the beach and put those blue flowers up in your ponytail

與你漫步在海灘上，在你的馬尾上插上這些藍色的花

Inside my head your voice is still resounding but what can I do?

你的聲音仍然在我深深的腦海里縈繞著，但我有能做什麼呢？

The empty rooms feel cold when I am so used to being with you

當我習慣身邊有你陪著的時候，那空蕩蕩的房間顯得格外冷清起來

Count the stars, watch the waves absorb the summer sun

數一數夜空中的繁星，看著海浪貪婪的吸收著夏日陽光的溫暖

And think of me when you explore hidden coves

當你在那個無人知曉的洞穴探險的時候，想想我好嗎？

And tiny island chains throughout the sea

那些微小的小島在無邊的海洋中連成一串

Can you still, hear my voice.When I'm outside, from over the phone?

當我不在你身邊，你是否也能透過那電話的聽筒聽到我內心的聲音呢？

For what it's worth, darling dear

因為一切都是值得為你去做的，親愛的某人

I wish you were here, 'cause I feel alone

我多麼希望你此刻就在這裡，因為我已被孤單吞噬

When you were home we'd sing

曾經我們會在你回家的路上放聲歌唱

But since you've left I dont hear anything

可是自從你離開之後，我再也聽不見那些過往的美好了

Though I feel so sad

儘管我很難受

I can't believe things are really that bad

我也無法相信事情變得如此糟糕

Old captains and brand new cruise ships，Sailing over the briny sea

老船長和新游輪開始在那無邊的海洋上航行

When I crashed my beloved desk job and swim through the debris

當我辭掉我曾經熱衷的工作，當我把一切的瑣事都處理乾淨

I'll cut loose leave this mad house

我將永遠離開這個喧囂的屋子

Bound for the Atlantic blue

然後向藍色的大西洋靠近

I'll stroll down your treelined driveway

我將在你那綠樹成蔭的車道上漫步

And sail the ocean with you

然後與你一起航向海洋
