Tomorrow is the one day I would change for a Monday 明天是有一天我会改变一个星期一

with freezing rains melting and no trains running 与冷冻降雨融化，没有火车运行

and sad eyes passing in windows flimsy 而悲伤的眼神传递窗脆弱

and my seat rocking from legs not quite matching 从腿不太匹配我的座位摇摆

Got passport, credit cards, a plane that I'm catching 拿到护照，信用卡，那我赶上飞机

Black Sunday falls one day too soon 黑色星期天下降1天太早

   

The taxi that takes me will be moving too quickly 把我带会移动太快出租车

My suitcases simply too full for the closing 我的行李箱简直太满了闭幕

of pants, shirts and kisses all packed in a hurry 裤子，衬衫和亲吻都装在一个匆忙

Two best-selling paper backs chosen at random --- 两个随机选取最畅销的平装本---

no sign of sales-persons to whom I might hand them 销售人员对谁我可能会交给他们没有任何迹象

Black Sunday falls one day too soon 黑色星期天下降1天太早

   

And down at the airport are probably waiting 上下在机场很可能在等待

a few thousand passengers, overbooked seating 几千名乘客，超额预订座位

Time long suspended in transit-lounge traumas --- 长时间悬浮在中转休息室创伤---

connections broken and Special Branch waiting 连接断裂，政治部等待

conspicuously standing in holiday clothing 显着地站立在节日服装

Black Sunday falls one day too soon 黑色星期天下降1天太早

   

Pick up my feet and kick off my lethargy 拿起我的脚，踢了我的嗜睡

Down to the gate with the old mood upon me 下降到与旧的情绪在我的门

Get out and chase the small immortality 走出去，追不死小

born in the minute of my next returning 生在我旁边回国分钟

Impatient feet tapping and cigarette burning 心急的脚攻和香烟燃烧

Homecoming one day too soon 似水流年1天太早

   

And back at the house there's a grey sky a-tumbling 而回到家里有一个灰色的天空，翻滚

Milk bottles piling on door steps a-crumbling 奶瓶堆放在门步骤a-摇摇欲坠

Curtains all drawn and cold water plumbing 窗帘全部拉和冷水管道

Notepaper scribbles I read unbelieving 便条涂鸦我读不信

Saying how sorry, how sad was the leaving 说多么后悔，多么可悲的是离开

...one day too soon 。有一天太早
