the Peking king and the New York Queen

The Doors - The Peking King And New York Queen
大門樂隊- 北京王和紐約後

有個故事我就一說你就一聽
Well, I heard a story you can judge it's worth
是個太陽和月亮的故事

他們在人間的故事
About the sun and the moon
話說太陽和月亮，長久地在天空輪值

他們彼此相愛
This time they came down to earth
而無法相觸

無體無形卻嚮往塵世的幸福
They passed in the heavens each day up above
他們決定

到人間去，化作世間男女
Time after time and it soon became love
她踏上月下的波路，他駕起太陽的光劍

化作世間男女，去實現夢想
They could not touch, they could not kiss
這是世間最美麗的人啊

他們是北京王和紐約後
They had no flesh, no earthly bliss
就是北京王和紐約後

命運擲骰子一般
So they made a scheme, they made a plan
把他們擲到地球的兩邊

一切都相反，所見，所思
They would come down to earth as a woman and a man
一切都相反

北京在東，紐約在西方
She rode a lunar wave, he flew a solar beam
誰都覺得自己是最好的地方

可是探索塵世的太陽和月亮
They took on human forms to live out a dream
卻確定無疑——一切都很好

他們說一本書怎麼讀才要緊
The most beautiful people that I've ever seen
看上去什麼樣不重要

北京王要緊的
They were the Peking King and the New York Queen
只有紐約後的懷抱

他們遠隔千萬里
I said the Peking King and the New York Queen.
如何相聚？談何相聚？

加州和風，上海快車
As fate would have it in the toss of the dice
他去往香港，她走出西方

護照不能，簽證不能，政府配額不能
They went to opposite ends of this world of our lives
南達科塔導彈基地不能

官僚不能，紅衛兵不嫩，什麼也不能
Opposite eyes, opposite minds
阻擋北京王和紐約後的夢想

他們是北京王和紐約後
Such things matter in these troubled times.
他們在菲律賓找到個小島

完美的夢想之地
Peking in the East and New York in the West
都說東方是東方，西方是西方

都說東西相隔參與商，你可別當真
Each place thought that it was the best
因為這婚禮就邀請你

見證北京王和紐約後夢想得償
But the sun and the moon on their earthly quest
北京王啊，紐約後

因為這婚禮就邀請你，見證夢想得償
Knew without a doubt that it was all the best
因為這婚禮就邀請你，見證夢想得償

北京王和紐約後
They said what does it matter how you read a book
北京王啊，紐約後

太陽和月亮，他們的婚禮就邀請你
It's all the same no matter how it looks.

Well the only thing important to the Peking King

Was bein' in the arms of his New York Queen

Thousand of miles, they were so far apart

How to get together? Oh, where to start?

On the California Zephyr and the Shanghai Express

He headed to Hong Kong, she headed out west.

No passports, no visas, no government quotas

No secret missile sites in South Dakota

No red tape, no red guard could stop the dream

Of the Peking King and the New York Queen

I said, the Peking King and the New York Queen

Well they found a little island in the Phillipines

It was a perfect little place to live out a dream

They say East is East, West is West

They say the twain won't meet, but don't you take that bet

'Cause you're invited to a wedding and to share the dream

Of the Peking King and the New York Queen

The Peking King and the New York Queen.


'Cause you're invited to a wedding and to share the dream

'Cause you're invited to a wedding and to share the dream

Of the Peking King and the New York Queen

The Peking King and the New York Queen.

You're invited to the wedding of the sun and the moon
