close

 Round… 

like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending on beginning 
on an ever-spinning reel 
旋轉著…

就像彈簧圈上的圓

就像輪胎裡的輪圈

一旦開始便無法結束

輪軸不停地轉動著

Like a snowball down a mountain 
or a carnival balloon 
Like a carousel that's turning 
running rings around the moon
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
past the minutes on its face
And the world is like an apple 
whirring silently in space
Like the circles that you find 
in the windmills of your mind 

就像直往山坡滾下的雪球

或像嘉年華派對裡的汽球

就像正在旋轉的木馬

直繞著月球轉

就像時鐘的指針不斷地

滑過鐘面上的刻度

而世界就像顆蘋果

在宇宙中默默地旋轉

就像你發現的那些圓

那些在你內心深處的風車

Like a tunnel that you follow 
to a tunnel of its own 
Down a hollow to a cavern 
where the sun has never shone 
Like a door that keeps revolving 
in a half-forgotten dream 
Or the ripples from a pebble 
someone tosses in a stream 

就像你從一個隧道

進入另一個隧道

從一個空洞掉到一個深穴

一個陽光永遠照不到的地方

就像一扇不停旋轉的門

在一個快被遺忘的夢境裡

就像溪流裡有人丟小石子

所激起的漣漪

Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
past the minutes on its face 
And the world is like an apple 
whirring silently in space
Like the circles that you find 
in the windmills of your mind 
就像時鐘的指針不斷地

滑過鐘面上的刻度

而世界就像顆蘋果

在宇宙中默默地旋轉

就像你發現的那些圓

那些在你內心深處的風車

Keys that jingle in your pocket
Words that jangle in your head 
Why did summer go so quickly ? 
Was it something that you said ? 
Lovers walk along a shore 
And leave their footprints in the sand 
Is the sound of distant drumming
Just the fingers of your hand ? 
鑰匙在你的口袋裡鏗鏘著

言語在你腦海裡爭辯著

為何夏天走得如此地匆促? 

是不是因為你說過什麼話? 

戀人們沿著海邊漫步

在沙灘上留下了他們的足跡

那聲音到底是遙遠的鼓聲

還是來自於你的手指? 

Pictures hanging in a hallway 
And the fragment of a song 
Half-remembered names and faces 
But to whom do they belong ? 
When you knew that it was over 
Were you suddenly aware ?
That the autumn leaves were turning 
to the color of her hair ? 

陳列在長廊裡的畫作

以及一首支離破碎的歌

記憶模糊的名字與容顏

他們到底屬於誰? 

當你明白一切已經結束

你是否會遽然覺醒?

秋天的葉子正漸漸地

變了她頭髮的顏色


Like a circle in a spiral 
Like a wheel within a wheel 
Never ending on beginning 
on an ever-spinning reel 
As the images unwind 
Like the circles that you find 
in the windmills of your mind

就像彈簧圈上的圓

就像輪胎裡的輪圈

一旦開始便無法結束

輪軸不停地轉動著

當那些映像倒帶

就像你找到的那些圓

那些在你內心深處的風車
