Scenes From An Italian Restaurant - Billy Joel (比利·乔尔) // Written by:Billy Joel 一瓶白葡萄酒 一瓶红葡萄酒 A bottle of white a bottle of red 如果想要 或许还有瓶粉色葡萄酒 Perhaps a bottle of rose instead 我们订了靠近街边的座位 We'll get a table near the street 在这个我们熟悉的老地方 In our old familiar place 我和你 面对面坐着 You and I face to face oooh 一瓶红葡萄酒 一瓶白葡萄酒 A bottle of red a bottle of white 想喝什么全听你的 It all depends on your appetite 想见我什么时候都可以 I'll meet you any time you want 在这间意大利餐厅 In our Italian Restaurant 我最近过的还可以 Things are okay with me these days 有份不错的工作 一个不错的办公室 Got a good job got a good office 有了新的妻子 开始了新的生活 Got a new wife got a new life 家庭也不错 And the family is fine 我们真的太久没联系了 Oh we lost touch long ago 你瘦了 我没想到 You lost weight I did not know 岁月竟让你变得更加动人了 You could ever look so nice after so much time 你还记得匆匆那年我们在郊外约会的那些日子吗? Do you remember those days hanging out at the village green 工装靴 皮夹克 还有蓝色紧身牛仔裤 Engineer boots leather jackets and tight blue jeans 你把一角硬币投进点唱机播放一首歌 Oh you'd drop a dime in the box play a song 关于新奥尔良 About New Orleans 冰冷的啤酒 温暖的灯光 Cold beer hot lights 那些甜蜜又浪漫的少年时光 My sweet romantic teenage nights 布伦达和埃迪当时很受欢迎 Brenda and Eddie were the popular steadies 他们是当时的舞会王后和国王 And the king and the queen at the prom 快乐的车顶都要掀翻 肆意开着车横冲直撞 Riding around with the car top down 在收音机的音乐中 And the radio on 在百汇餐厅没有人见过比这更美好更多的感动 Nobody looked any finer or was more of a hit at the ParkwayDiner 我们对生活心满意足 并没想要别的什么 We never knew we could want more than that out of life 当然 布伦达和埃迪总是知道如何继续 Surely Brenda and Eddie would always know how to survive 75年的夏天布伦达和埃迪的感情仍然稳定 Brenda and Eddie were still going steady in the summer of '75 这年的七月末他们决定结婚 When they decided the marriage would be at the end of July 所有人都说他们太疯狂了 Everyone said they were crazy 布伦达你知道的你太懒了 Brenda you know you're much too lazy 还有 埃迪怕也无法负担起像样的生活 And Eddie could never afford to live that kind of life 但是他们还是挥挥手送他俩远行 But there we were waving Brenda and Eddie goodbye 他们搬去一套公寓 还买了长绒地毯 They got an apartment with deep pile carpet 从西尔斯买来两幅高级油画 And a couple of paintings from Sears 把买面包的钱拿去买了张大大的水床 A big waterbed that they bought with the bread 这还是他们存了好几年的钱 They had saved for a couple of years 生活变得拮据 他们开始频繁吵架 But they started to fight when the money got tight 当然他们并没有指望着泪水过生活 And they just didn't count on the tears 他们还是很幸福地过了一段美妙的时光 Well they lived for a while in a very nice style 但是所有故事的结局都是一样的 But it's always the same in the end 势所必然 他们离婚了 They got a divorce as a matter of course 他们变成了最熟悉的陌生人 And they parted the closest of friends 昔日的舞会王后和国王可以再回到那片葱绿的地方 Then the king and the queen went back to the green 但是你再也不能回去了 But you can never go back there again 曾经属于布伦达和埃迪两个人的 Brenda and Eddie had had it already 那个75年的夏天 By the summer of '75 无论从近到远抑或故事的终结 From the high to the low to the end of the show 哪怕用尽他们的余生 For the rest of their lives 都难寻曾经的美好
