DAYS ARE NUMBERS

第一次聽到這曲子是在1984，被收錄在夜市100元三卷的廣告配樂篇，帶子早已不知所終。

旋律與曲名卻仍然還在腦子裡，與當年那個夏夜，一樣的清晰。

DAYS ARE NUMBERS

The Alan Parsons Project - Days are Numbers (The Traveller)

旅行者總是經過城裡
The traveller is always leaving town

他從來沒有時間回頭看看
He never has the time to turn around

但假使他走的路沒有終點
And if the road he's taken isn't leading anywhere

他似乎也無從得知
He seems to be completely unaware

旅行者總是離鄉背井
The traveller is always leaving home

這是他唯一知道的生活
The only kind of life he's ever known

當每個時刻都像是與時間賽跑
When every moment seems to beA race against the time

卻總是還有一個山頭必須跨越
There's always one more mountain left to climb

未來的日子寥寥可數
Days are numbers

凝視著繁星
Watch the stars

我們卻無法看得更遠
We can only see so far

有一天,你會知道自己身在何處
Someday, you'll know where you are

記得啊,你我來日無多
Remember ,Days are numbers

數著星星
Count the stars

我們卻無法走得更遠
We can only go so far

有一天,你會知道自己身在何處
One day, you'll know where you are

旅行者等待早晨的潮汐
The traveller awaits the morning tide

他不知道岸的另一端是什麼
He doesn't know what's on the other side

但在他的內心深處
But something deep inside of him

有個聲音一直催促他向前
Keeps telling him to go

而他卻找不到拒絕的理由
He hasn't found a reason to say no

旅行者只是個過客
The traveller is only passing through

他不明白你的觀點
He cannot understand your point of view

離棄現實,對未來毫無把握
Abandoning reality, unsure of what he'll find

我心中的旅行者近在咫尺
The traveller in me is close behind

未來的日子寥寥可數
Days are numbers

凝視著繁星
Watch the stars

我們卻無法看得更遠
We can only see so far

有一天,你會知道自己身在何處
Someday, you'll know where you are

記得啊,你我來日無多
Remember ,Days are numbers

數著星星
Count the stars

我們卻無法走得更遠
We can only go so far

有一天,你會知道自己身在何處
One day, you'll know where you are
