Down to theWaterline
sweet surrender onthe quayside
记否，码头边上有我俩的行迹
you remember weused to run and hide
记否，那个时候我们奔跑，我们躲藏
in the shadow ofthe car goes i take you one time
记否，汽车荫蔽处有我们缠绵的片刻
and were counting allthe numbers down to the waterline
翻滚到水岸边，你居然还在数数（嘴角扬起）
————
near misses on thedogleap stairways
还差点压到家里睡觉的狗狗
french kisses inthe darkened doorways
那天晚上在门道吻别，然而还是一起出门了
a foghorn blowingout wild and cold
船舶的号角鸣起，外面是多么的冷啊
a policeman shinesa light upon my shoulder
警察的照明灯无意照到了我
————
up comes a coasterfast and silent in the night
一艘船快速而平稳的在河道开过
over my shoulderall you can see are the pilot lights
船灯置我于光亮之中（挫样一目了然）
no money in ourjackets and our jeans are torn
口袋空空，牛仔裤子上还带几个洞，这个打扮可没事，关键是我的脸
your hands arecold but your lips are warm
你的手冰凉唇却温暖

she can see him onthe jetty where they used to go
现在她路过码头就会想起曾经
she can feel himin the places where the sailors go
看到水手也会想起曾经
when shes walkingby the river and the railway line
she can still hearhim whisper
她依稀听到牢房中我的声音：
lets go down tothe waterline
“管他娘的，湿透了更带劲，你说嘞”
Water of Love
High and dry inthe long hot day
在炎炎烈日中行走
Lost and lonely inevery way
路有千条，尽头却是孤独
Got the flats allaround me sky up above
头顶天空周围一望无边

Water of love deepin the ground

No water here tobe found
可没那么容易获取

It'll carry thatwater of love to me

————
There's a bird upin a tree sitting up high
树林里有只笨鸟（秃鹫）悬在高高的树枝上
Waiting for me todie
正在以猎人般的眼神注视着我
If I don't getsome water soon
因为我如果再没有爱之水
I'll be dead andgone in the afternoon
不到半天功夫它将下来叼啄我冰凉的身体
————
Once I had a womanI could call my own
曾经我也有过爱之水
Once I had a womannow my woman is gone
我珍惜、点点计算，仍不免一点点流逝

I never saw youbreaking no law
我是从来没看到你按常理出牌
Stands to reasonI've got to leave you alone
站好了，我要离开你！
What you take mefor
你丫的把我当什么了
You're setting meup to put me down
