Savage Garden - Santa Monica (1997)

In Santa Monica, in the wintertime,
冬季裡的Santa Monica


The lazy streets so undemanding
街道氣氛顯得如此傭懶

I walk into the crowd

In Santa Monica, you get your coffee from the coolest places on the promenade
在Santa Monica，你能在街上裝潢最流行的地方買到咖啡

Where people dress just so Beauty, so unavoidable
周圍人們穿著當然也如此漂亮

everywhere you turn
當你走在任何街道

It's there.
我坐在這裏

I sit and wonder what am I doing here?
猜想著也許我不屬於這

But on the telephone line 
但是在電話線的那一頭

I am anyone. I am anything I want to be.
我可以成為我想要的人

I could be a super model or Norman Mailer
我可以是超級模特兒，也可以是諾曼梅勒

And you wouldn't know the difference
你不會分辨出來

Or would you?
不是嗎?

In Santa Monica, all the people got modern names
在Santa Monica，每個人都有新潮的名字

Like Jake or Mandy
像是Jake 或 Mandy

And modern bodies too
也有新潮的身材

In Santa Monica, on the boulevard,
在Santa Monica，走在大街上

You'll have to dodge those in-line skaters
你要閃開那些溜直排輪的人

Or they'll knock you down
否則他們會撞倒你

I never felt so lonely,
我從沒感覺這麼寂寞過

Never felt so out of place
我從沒感覺這麼沒歸屬感

I never wanted something more than this
我從沒那麼想要過某件東西

But on the telephone line 
但在電話線的那一頭

I am anyone. I am anything I want to be
我可以成為我想要的人

I could be a super model or Norman Mailer
我可以是超級模特兒，也可以是諾曼梅勒

And you wouldn't know the difference
你不會分辨出來

On the telephone line
但是在電話線的那一頭

I am any height, I am any age I want to be

I could be a caped crusader, or space invader
我可以是一位古代十字軍，或是外太空侵略者

And you wouldn't know the difference
你不會分辨出來

Or would you?
