Long Strange Golden Road Liedtext Deutsche Übersetzung

INTRO:
EINFÜHRUNG:
VERSE:
VERS:
I was longing to be wooed
Ich sehnte mich danach, umworben zu werden
I was ready to be humbled
Ich war bereit, demütig zu sein
by the words that you had written
durch die Worte, die du geschrieben hast
by the syllables you mumbled
Anhand der Silben, die du gemurmelt hast
yeah, I was ready in my heart
Ja, ich war in meinem Herzen bereit
to have my heart invaded
dass mein Herz überfallen wird
by the fervour of your passion
durch die Inbrunst deiner Leidenschaft
yes, I came to be persuaded
Ja, ich bin gekommen, um mich überzeugen zu lassen
VERSE:
VERS:
But when I heard your ragged voice
Aber als ich deine raue Stimme hörte
something switched in my perception
etwas hat sich in meiner Wahrnehmung verändert
and I knew I was the victim
und ich wusste, dass ich das Opfer war
of a beautiful deception
einer schönen Täuschung
all my once exact beliefs
alle meine einst genauen Überzeugungen
like tangled threads unravelled
wie verworrene Fäden, die sich entwirren
I walked out, stunned and liberated
Ich ging fassungslos und befreit hinaus
and so began my travels
und so begann meine Reise
CHORUS:
CHOR:
Keep the river on your right
Halten Sie den Fluss auf Ihrer rechten Seite
and the highway at your shoulder
und die Autobahn an deiner Schulter
and the front line in your sights, pioneer
und die Front im Visier, Pionier
Keep your eye on the road
Behalten Sie die Straße im Auge
remember what you told her
Erinnere dich daran, was du ihr gesagt hast
this is all in code, my dear
Das ist alles im Code, meine Liebe
VERSE:
VERS:
You better get yourself a coat
Du solltest dir besser einen Mantel besorgen
said the handsome taxi driver
sagte der hübsche Taxifahrer
and he sighed like seven bridges
und er seufzte wie sieben Brücken
like a natural-born survivor
wie ein natürlich geborener Überlebenskünstler
as we drove into the night
als wir in die Nacht fuhren
I could feel the forest jangling
Ich konnte das Klirren des Waldes spüren
all the choices laid before me
Alle Entscheidungen, die vor mir liegen
and their consequences dangling
und ihre Konsequenzen baumeln
VERSE:
VERS:
We came upon a stricken ship
Wir stießen auf ein havariertes Schiff
that must have once been splendid
Das muss mal großartig gewesen sein
the captain as he died said
sagte der Kapitän, als er starb
'Boys, our revels now are ended'
„Jungs, unsere Feierlichkeiten sind jetzt zu Ende“
I heard a wild holy band
Ich hörte eine wilde, heilige Musik
playing jazz that was outrageous,
Jazz zu spielen, der unverschämt war,
that recalled the days of rapture
das erinnerte an die Tage der Entrückung
when our love was still young and contagious
Als unsere Liebe noch jung und ansteckend war
CHORUS:
CHOR:
Keep the river on your right
Halten Sie den Fluss auf Ihrer rechten Seite
and the highway at your shoulder
und die Autobahn an deiner Schulter
and the front line in your sights, pioneer
und die Front im Visier, Pionier
Keep your eye on the road
Behalten Sie die Straße im Auge
remember what you told her
Erinnere dich daran, was du ihr gesagt hast
this is all in code, my dear
Das ist alles im Code, meine Liebe
VERSE:
VERS:
In a dim-lit motel room
In einem schwach beleuchteten Motelzimmer
two sad lovers were discoursing
zwei traurige Liebende unterhielten sich
on the dignity of exile
über die Würde des Exils
and the merits of divorcing
und die Vorzüge einer Scheidung
she said 'all certainty is gone'
Sie sagte: „Alle Gewissheit ist verloren“
but he leapt up, still denying,
aber er sprang auf und leugnete immer noch,
cried 'I won't believe the flame I lit
rief: „Ich werde die Flamme nicht glauben, die ich angezündet habe.“
is dead or even dying'
ist tot oder liegt sogar im Sterben‘
VERSE:
VERS:
She left him drooling in the dust
Sie ließ ihn sabbernd im Staub zurück
and with rucksack packed begun her
und mit gepacktem Rucksack machte sie sich auf den Weg
bitter journey to the border
bittere Reise zur Grenze
which is where I wooed and won her
Dort habe ich sie umworben und gewonnen
she was Aphrodite, Helen, Thetis,
sie war Aphrodite, Helen, Thetis,
Eve among the satyrs
Eva unter den Satyrn
She was Venus in a v-neck sweater
Sie war Venus in einem Pullover mit V-Ausschnitt
she was all that ever mattered
Sie war alles, was jemals zählte
CHORUS:
CHOR:
Keep the river on your right
Halten Sie den Fluss auf Ihrer rechten Seite
and the highway at your shoulder
und die Autobahn an deiner Schulter
and the front line in your sights, pioneer
und die Front im Visier, Pionier
Keep your eye on the road
Behalten Sie die Straße im Auge
remember what you told her
Erinnere dich daran, was du ihr gesagt hast
this is all in code, my dear
Das ist alles im Code, meine Liebe
VERSE:
VERS:
Like Dean Moriarty's ghost
Wie Dean Moriartys Geist
I came in quest of secret knowledge
Ich bin auf der Suche nach geheimem Wissen gekommen
in the winter of my journey
im Winter meiner Reise
to a crumbling Druid college
zu einer zerfallenden Druidenschule
there I read the books of lore
dort las ich die Bücher der Überlieferungen
and contemplated in seclusion
und in Abgeschiedenheit betrachtet
but I took my leave embittered,
aber verbittert verabschiedete ich mich,
still in love with my illusions
Ich bin immer noch in meine Illusionen verliebt
VERSE:
VERS:
In the drizzling Irish rain
Im nieselnden irischen Regen
as a tender dawn was breaking
als eine zarte Morgendämmerung anbrach
in a doorway I stood spellbound by
In einer Tür stand ich gebannt da
the ancient music they were making
die alte Musik, die sie machten
I took my breakfast with the Gods
Ich frühstückte mit den Göttern
on a blushing summer morning
an einem errötenden Sommermorgen
till a wind blew them all away
bis ein Wind sie alle wegblies
I had misread every warning
Ich hatte jede Warnung falsch verstanden
CHORUS:
CHOR:
Keep the river on your right
Halten Sie den Fluss auf Ihrer rechten Seite
and the highway at your shoulder
und die Autobahn an deiner Schulter
and the front line in your sights, pioneer
und die Front im Visier, Pionier
Keep your eye on the road
Behalten Sie die Straße im Auge
remember what you told her
Erinnere dich daran, was du ihr gesagt hast
this is all in code, my dear
Das ist alles im Code, meine Liebe
VERSE:
VERS:
Under cold electric light
Unter kaltem elektrischem Licht
I watch the scenes mutating
Ich beobachte, wie die Szenen mutieren
like an old time frontier ballad
wie eine Grenzballade aus alten Zeiten
or a carousel rotating
oder ein rotierendes Karussell
As if in a moment from a film
Wie in einem Moment aus einem Film
with astonishing precision
mit erstaunlicher Präzision
the camera zooms in close
Die Kamera zoomt nah heran
and a figure comes into vision
und eine Gestalt kommt in Sicht
VERSE:
VERS:
I'm in Tokyo, it's dawn
Ich bin in Tokio, es dämmert
and it's raining hallelujahs
und es regnet Halleluja
down the bright-lit neon canyons
durch die hell erleuchteten Neonschluchten
along the sidewalks of Shibuya
entlang der Bürgersteige von Shibuya
I'm trying to take a stance
Ich versuche, Stellung zu beziehen
and rise above my contradictions
und erhebe dich über meine Widersprüche
but I'm just a bunch of words in pants
Aber ich bin nur ein Haufen Worte in Hosen
and most of those are fiction
und die meisten davon sind Fiktion
CHORUS:
CHOR:
Keep the river on your right
Halten Sie den Fluss auf Ihrer rechten Seite
and the highway at your shoulder
und die Autobahn an deiner Schulter
and the front line in your sights, pioneer
und die Front im Visier, Pionier
Keep your eye on the road
Behalten Sie die Straße im Auge
remember what you told her
Erinnere dich daran, was du ihr gesagt hast
this is all in code, my dear
Das ist alles im Code, meine Liebe
CHORUS:
CHOR:
Keep the river on your right
Halten Sie den Fluss auf Ihrer rechten Seite
and the highway at your shoulder
und die Autobahn an deiner Schulter
and the front line in your sights, pioneer
und die Front im Visier, Pionier

Behalten Sie die Straße im Auge
remember what you told her
Erinnere dich daran, was du ihr gesagt hast
this is all in code, my dear
Das ist alles im Code, meine Liebe
