Hold On, Wuhan

“Hold On” – Tom Waits – 1999

They hung a sign up in out town / 有人在我們鎮上豎起一塊牌子
‘if you live it up, you won’t live it down’ / 「若盡情享受 將永不遺忘」
So, she left Monte Rio, son / 於是她離開了蒙特里歐 孩子
Just like a bullet leaves a gun / 就像顆子彈離開槍膛
With charcoal eyes and Monroe hips / 深灰色雙眼和夢露般的臀部
She went and took that California trip / 她走了 踏上加州之旅
Well, the moon was gold, her Hair like wind / 那晚月亮如金 她髮似如風
She said don’t look back now just Come on Jim / 她說「別回頭 只管向前 吉姆」

Oh you got to Hold on, Hold on / 噢 你得堅持住 堅持住
You got to hold on / 你得堅持住
Take my hand, I’m standing right here / 握著我的手 我就站在這
You gotta hold on / 你得堅持住

Well, he gave her a dimestore watch / 他曾給她一條廉價手錶
And a ring made from a spoon / 和一枚用勾子打造的戒指
Everyone is looking for someone to blame / 每個人都在尋找替罪羊
But you share my bed, you share my name / 當你與我同眠 你便與我同姓

Well, go ahead and call the cops / 盡管向前走 打給911
You don’t meet nice girls in coffee shops / 在咖啡館沒遇到好女孩
She said baby,I still love you / 她說  「寶貝 我仍愛著你
Sometimes there’s nothin left to do / 沒剩下什麼能去做的」

Oh you got to Hold on, Hold on / 噢 你得堅持住 堅持住
You got to hold on / 你得堅持住
Take my hand, I’m standing right here / 握著我的手 我就站在這
You gotta hold on / 你得堅持住

Well, God bless your crooked little heart / 願上帝保佑你那小小乖戾的心
St. Louis got the best of me / 在聖路易市全勝期的我
I miss your broken-china voice / 懷念你如碎瓷般的聲音

How I wish you were still here with me / 多希望你仍陪伴在我身邊
Well, you build it up,you wreck it down / 期望越大 失望越大
You burn your mansion to the ground / 燒毀你的大廈坍倒地面

When there’s nothing left to keep you here / 這已經沒什麼能讓你留下
When You’re falling behind in this Big blue world / 當你被這大大憂鬱世界所棄

Oh you got to Hold on, Hold on / 噢 你得堅持住 堅持住
You got to hold on / 你得堅持住
Take my hand, I’m standing right here / 握著我的手 我就站在這
You gotta hold on / 你得堅持住

Down by the Riverside motel, / 在河畔旅館旁
It’s 10 below and falling By a 99 cent store / 零下10度漸漸冷的天氣 在商家前
she closed her eyes And started swaying / 她閉上眼開始搖擺
But it’s so hard to dance that way / 這樣子很難跳舞
When it’s cold and there’s no music / 因為天氣如此冷且無音樂
Well your old hometown is so far away / 你的老家鄉是如此遙遠
But, inside your head there’s a record / 但腦子裡滿是記憶

That’s playing / 這是個遊戲
A song called Hold on, hold on / 歌名叫「堅持住吧!」堅持

You really got to hold on / 真得要堅持住
Take my hand, I’m standing right here / 握著我的手 我就站在這
And just hold on / 堅持下去
