Where Does This Ocean Go?

All day the city's singing something
Always, the busy people spinning 'round
Busier...Dizzier...
'Til they go back home to somewhere

And taxies stop to say "Hello"
"Want a ride? I'll take you there"
"To anywhere, just tell my driver"

The sun is casting shadows
An afternoon is fading
I ask, but no one knows
The answer to the question
My life is like an island
Where does this ocean go?

Shyly, a wino sips his wine
Slowly, cause to him that is all that matters
He sees a cat he knows so well
Now sleeping on a bench together

A woman waiting by herself
Selling flowers
"Please buy some,
So I can help my daughter, will you?"

The man with spider eyebrows
Is standing on a corner
"Who wants to see a show?"
His head looks like a melon
He turns into an alley
Then stops to blow his nose

Sky is filled with neon
The buildings stand electric
And almost seem to glow
Want answers to the question
My life is like an island
Where does the ocean go?

I'm feeling all alone
My life is like an island
It's time for me now to fly
Where does the ocean go?


《 海 洋 要 流 向 何 處 ？ 》
-
這城市整天都賣著東西
繁忙不停的人旋轉不斷
越來越忙
越來越暈
一直到回家為止
-
許多計程車停在一旁說“hello”
“要搭車嗎？我載你”
“想到哪，就告訴我司機”
-
太陽擲入了陰暗處
一個下午漸漸凋謝
我問著一個沒人
知道答案的問題
我的人生像座島
海洋要流向何處？
-
膽小的酒鬼啜著他的酒
慢慢地因為這是他在乎的一切
他看見一隻貓　他覺得不錯
於是一起睡在長凳上
-
一個女人孤獨地站著賣花
“請買一些，讓我幫幫我女兒，好嗎？”
-
一個有蜘蛛眉的男人
站在角落邊
“有人要看表演嗎？”
他的頭看起來像個哈密瓜
他轉過身對著巷口
然後擤著鼻涕
天空充滿了霓虹燈
建築物聳立在電氣中
看起來像在發光
只想要一個答案
我的人生像座島
海洋要流向何處？
我真的想知道
我的人生像座島
是該飛翔的時候了
海洋要流向何處？
