Lying eyes


City girls just seem to find out early
How to open doors with just a smile
A rich old man
And she won't have to worry
She'll dress up all in lace and go in style
                        
Late at night a big old house gets lonely
I guess ev'ry form of refuge has its price
And it breaks her heart to think her love is
Only given to a man with hands as cold as ice
                     
So she tells him she must go out for the evening
To comfort an old friend who's feelin' down
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin'
She is headed for the cheatin' side of town
                        
You can't hide your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide your lyin eyes
                     
On the other side of town a boy is waiting
with fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal
She drives on through the nice anticipating
'Cause he makes her feel the way she used to feel
                  
She rushes to his arms,
They fall together
She whispers that it's only for awhile
She swears that soon she'll be comin' back forever
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile
                     
You can't hide your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide you lyin' eyes
                     
She gets up and pours herself a strong one
And stares out at the stars up in the sky
Another night, it's gonna be a long one
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry
                     
She wonders how it ever got this crazy
She thinks about a boy she knew in school
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy?
She's so far gone she feels just like a fool
                  
My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things
You set it up so well, so carefully
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things
You're still the same old girl you used to be
                  
You can't hide your lyin eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
Honey, you can't hide your lyin' eyes

撒谎的眼睛 城市女孩很早就知道
如何只用一个微笑就能敲开别人的门
开门的是一个有钱的老头,但她不担心
她从来都是那时髦的打扮
深夜空旷的旧房子里
一个人孤寂不堪
我想任何形式的逃避都要付出代价
这一切使她心碎
她将爱交给一个冷若冰霜的男人          她说不得不到外面过夜
去安慰一个情绪低落的老朋友
但她走时他就知道她会去何处
她去了那个骗人的镇上          你无法隐藏你撒谎的眼睛
你假装的笑容只不过是徒劳
我想现在你已意识到
你无法隐藏你撒谎的眼睛    在小镇的另一头
有个男孩望眼欲穿
希望无人知晓这一切
她在夜色中飞奔,心怀憧憬
因为这让她重拾以前的感觉
她扑向他的怀抱,紧紧相拥
一阵喃喃絮语
然后发誓一定会再回来
她带着迷人的微笑走了                   她起床来,喝了一口烈酒
凝望星空
下一夜将是个漫长的等待
她抬起头伤心恸哭
不知道为何变得如此疯狂
为这个在校园结识的男孩心痛
是太累了还是变懒了呢
她已陷得太深,像个傻瓜
哦,你一定知道如何安排一切
你办得如此完美如此周全
你的新生活并没改变什么
难道不有趣吗
你还是以前的那个女孩             langrisserA 译

经典赏析:The Eagles (上)

"你没法隐藏你撒谎的眼睛!"
这句话多么有劲。我不知道有多少小伙子忍无可忍,在最后的时刻向负心女子掷出这么一句,那就像爱情中的真理一样斩钉截铁,铿锵有力,对所有自以为聪明的,被宠坏了的,撒谎成性的女孩来说,这就是空中一道正义的霹雳。男人总是容忍她们的小聪明,小阴谋,但也迟早会把她们戳穿。《撒谎的眼睛》影射了整个被物欲和距离感操纵着的人间,小市民文化遍地开花,撒谎成了日常生活的一部分,感情呢,被栓上了筹码。老男人和女孩子的故事仍然在上演,老歌也在不断被新唱,而这首带有道德判断意味的歌曲仍然是受欢迎的。你也可以声明对道德传统的叛逆,也可以说你的心上人从不撒谎,但老鹰乐队还是要弄一段神妙的吉他,然后轻声唱些旧调,让你摇头晃脑地掉进那传统美学的酒窖,拽都拽不出来。越是在激烈斗争的生活里,越是在尔虞我诈的城市里,越是有人爱着这样的怀旧,道德的小刺扎着我们疲倦的穴道,我们开始沉醉了,鼓掌并干杯。也许,那些可怕的女孩就坐在身边?但是,顾不了许多了,在这样的生活中,揭穿一切,怕是比被骗还要痛苦,你说呢?
