If I had met you on some journey 如果我遇见你一些旅程

Where would we be now 我们会在哪里，现在

If we had met some eastbound train 如果我们遇到了一些火车东

Through some black sleeping town 通过一些黑色的睡眠镇

   

Would you have worn your silken robes 你会穿的丝质长袍

All made of royal blue? 全部采用宝蓝色的？

Would I have dressed in smoke and fire 就我穿着烟和火

For you to see through? 让你看穿？

   

If we had met in a darkened room 如果我们在一个黑暗的房间里见过

Where people do not stay 那里的人不留

But shadows touch and pass right through 但阴影触摸和直接通过

And never see the day 再也看不到这一天

   

Would you have taken me upstairs 你会带我上楼

And turned the lamplight low? 并把灯光低？

Would I have shown my secret self 我会证明我的秘密自我

And disappeared like the snow? 消失喜欢雪？

   

Oh, I could have played your little girl 呵呵，我可以打你的小女孩

Or I could have played your wife 或者，我可以打你的妻子

I could have played your mistress 我可以打你的情妇

Running danger down through you life 通过你的生命危险，跑下来

   

I could have played your lady fair 我可以打你的女人公平

All dressed in lace like the foam from the sea 在所有的蕾丝穿得像从海中的泡沫

I could have been your woman of the road 我可以是你在路上的女人

As long as you did not come back home to me 只要你不回家我

   

But as it is, we live in the city 但是，因为它是我们生活的城市

And everything stays in place 所有的一切都留在地方

Instead we meet on the open sidewalk 相反，我们在开放的人行道上满足

And it's well I know your face 和它的好，我知道你的脸

   

We talk and talk, we tell the truth 我们谈而谈，我们说实话

There are no shadows here 有没有阴影在这里

But when I look into your eyes 但是，当我看着你的眼睛

I wonder what might have been here 我不知道什么会一直在这里

   

Because if I had met you on some journey 因为如果我遇见你一些旅程

Where would we be now? 我们会在哪里呢？
