Washington

Washington - Sarah Harmer
華盛頓
I didn't go to Washington
我沒有前往華盛頓

取而代之我清掃了地板
instead I swept the floor
我惟一曾做過的事

你不會再看到了
The only things I've ever done
我知道有魔法
you can't see anymore
但我在最後一次機會轉身

這憊懶的雙手依舊畏懼著
I knew there would be magic
制定任何計劃

因為那堆火需要添柴
but I turned at the last chance
那扇窗大大的敞開

有些時候當我從裡向外看時
These idle hands are staying scared of
我覺得我在這世界上
making any plans
我要將雪壓實

造一條通往那條路的小徑
'Cause the fire needed tending
我會憶起那段漫長的旅程

我希望你不需要雪地輪胎
and the windows are so wide
來度過賓夕法尼亞州的夜晚

我沒有前往我說拒絕
Sometimes I feel I'm in the world
當你問我我說“不去”
when I'm looking from inside
我現在惟一能感受到的

時間一分一分煎熬的流逝
I will pack down the snow,
太陽升起

隨時間推移變換位置
make a path to the road
太陽落下在雲海之後
And I'll think of the long ride
我沒有前往華盛頓

你現在大概已經到那了吧
I hope you don't need snow tires
已經.. . ...到那了吧
through the Pennsylvania night

I didn't go, I said no

I said no when you asked

The only things I'm feeling are

the empty minutes pass

The sun came up

and moved around

it's down behind a cloud

I didn't go to Washington

and you'll be almost there by now

almost there by now
