Dia membawa idenya di buku-buku yang diikat kulit
And a change of clothing, and a picture of Anna when she was younger,
Dan ganti pakaian, dan gambar Anna saat masih muda,
Least he forget her.
Setidaknya dia melupakannya.
And in among his papers is a list of all the people that he knew.
Dan di antara surat-suratnya ada daftar semua orang yang dia kenal.
And stacks of unsent letters telling someone that he'd be there sometime soon,
Dan tumpukan surat yang tidak terkirim memberitahu seseorang bahwa dia akan berada di sana dalam waktu dekat,
Hey stranger! Are you the tiredness that remains when you see freedom can't be measured by the scuffles on your boots?
Hai orang asing! Apakah Anda kelelahan yang tersisa saat Anda melihat kebebasan tidak dapat diukur oleh bentrokan pada sepatu bot Anda?
Hey hey hey…
Hei hei hei …
Now he dreams at night of Anna and the time they were together,
Sekarang dia bermimpi di malam hari Anna dan saat mereka bersama,
He was hard and she was subtle, when they lived out in the country he thought gentle–
Dia keras dan dia tidak kentara, saat mereka tinggal di negara yang dia anggap lembut –
Like his hands upon her body…
Seperti tangannya di atas tubuhnya …
How when Anna felt the cooling winds
Bagaimana saat Anna merasakan angin yang mendingin
David thought that he would be blown down…
David berpikir bahwa dia akan ditiup …
And when Anna felt the cleansing rain
Dan saat Anna merasakan cucian hujan
David fought the fear that he would drown—
Daud melawan ketakutan bahwa dia akan tenggelam —
Hey stranger! As you wonder through the country
Hai orang asing! Saat Anda bertanya-tanya melalui negara
That you hope is much less frightening
Yang Anda harapkan jauh lebih tidak menakutkan
When it's quicker passing through–
Saat cepat lewat –
Hey hey hey…
Hei hei hei …
Now in Southern Arizona at an all night diner counter
Sekarang di Arizona Selatan di meja makan sepanjang malam
Being questioned by the waitress, he prepares for the desert with his freedom,
Diinterogasi oleh pelayan, dia bersiap untuk gurun dengan kebebasannya,
And a canteen of water…
Dan kantin air …
