[00:07.89] I live by the Hudson River,
[00:10.6] And a lot of boats go by.
[00:13.2] They glide by so quickly,
[00:14.90] Camouflaged against the Jersey Shore.
[00:20.26] Sometimes at night when the liners are lit up,
[00:22.88] It's hard to tell which is moving,
[00:24.62] the boat, or the shoreline.
[00:27.1] And it seems like all of Manhattan is comin' anchored,
[00:29.78] And slowly drifting out to sea.
[00:32.31] I spent, hours trying to film them,
[00:35.10] So I set up a camera by the window.
[00:37.95] And every time I hear a horn,
[00:40.20] I ran to the window.
[00:42.23] But I usually miss them.
[00:45.52] It's kind of rhythem,
[00:47.48] I kind of thinking it's been getting into the song I've been writing lately.
[00:52.47] Like walking upstairs in the dark,
[00:54.65] You think there's one more step than there actually is.
[00:57.73] And you foot comes pounding down,
[01:00.12] Is nothing underneath.
[01:02.39] Or like the piano we got a few months ago,
[01:05.47] Only a few keys work.
[01:07.96] So we put it out in the hall near the door.
[01:11.22] When people come in,
[01:12.6] they break their hands acorss the keyboard,
[01:15.6] playing a few notes that still work.
[01:19.8] It's kind of a doorbell now.
[01:23.42] All the sounds around were so distracting,
[01:26.22] I was trying to concentrated
[01:29.11] on a song for performance.
[01:31.69] But I couldn't.
[01:33.95] And my mother called and said,
[01:36.0] "Why not come out here and write your song? “
[01:38.83] It's real quiet, I just put on new carpets down."
[01:42.61] (Anybody home? )(
[01:44.29] When I got there, I noticed that
[01:46.65] The new carpets were so thick that
[01:48.89] None of the doors closed.
[01:51.33] The only door that still worked was the door to parent's room.
[01:54.97] It was a swing door,
[01:57.21] Every time someone opened it,
[01:59.14] It thwack into the parrot's cage,
[02:01.81] And the parrot screamed.
[02:03.54] Each time this happened totally surprised dozens of times a day.
[02:08.9] And the shirek filled the whole house,
[02:11.27] Through all the half-opened doors.
[02:23.11] And this is the song,
[02:26.32] I finally wrote.
[00:07.89] I live by the Hudson River,

[02:11.27] Through all the halfopened doors.
[02:23.11] And this is the song,
[02:26.32] I finally wrote.
[00:07.89] 我的住所临着哈德逊河,
[00:10.6] 许多船从这经过。
[00:13.2] 它们经过时速度很快,
[00:14.90] 紧挨着泽西海岸远去,逐渐隐没。
[00:20.26] 有时候在晚上,当邮轮被点亮时,
[00:22.88] 很难分辨是哪个在移动,
[00:24.62] 是船,还是河岸。
[00:27.1] 那看上去就像整个曼哈顿收起了锚,
[00:29.78] 沉缓地漂向大海。
[00:32.31] 我曾花数小时尝试拍下它们,
[00:35.10] 所以在窗前设下了摄影机。
[00:37.95] 只要我听见一声笛鸣,
[00:40.20] 我就冲向窗户。
[00:42.23] 但我经常晚上一步。
[00:45.52] 这可以看作是种节奏,
[00:47.48] 我想,它被我不知觉地写进了后来的歌里。
[00:52.47] 就像在黑暗中上楼梯时,
[00:54.65] 你想象中的阶数要比实际多一阶,
[00:57.73] 但当你的脚猛地踏下去,
[01:00.12] 底下却什么都没有。
[01:02.39] 或是像我们几个月前收到的那台钢琴,
[01:05.47] 只有几个键可以弹奏。
[01:07.96] 所以我们把它闲置在走廊上,挨着门。
[01:11.22] 当有人要进来时,
[01:12.6] 他们会使劲地将手扫过琴键,
[01:15.6] 奏响仅有的几个音符。
[01:19.8] 它现在算是门铃了。
[01:23.42] 周围的声音总叫人分心,
[01:26.22] 我试着集中注意,
[01:29.11] 准备一首将要表演的歌曲。
[01:31.69] 但我做不到。
[01:33.95] 于是我的母亲打来电话,她说,
[01:36.0] 为什么不到这来写你的歌呢?
[01:38.83] 这里很安静,我刚铺上新地毯。”
[01:42.61] 有人在家吗?)
[01:44.29] 当我到那时,我发现,
[01:46.65] 新地毯实在太厚了,
[01:48.89] 没有一扇门能阖实。
[01:51.33] 唯一一扇还能正常运转的是我父母的卧室门。
[01:54.97] 那是一扇双向门,
[01:57.21] 每当有人推开它时,
[01:59.14] 门就会撞上鹦鹉的笼子,
[02:01.81] 鹦鹉就会尖叫起来。
[02:03.54] 这种事情发生时总十分骇人,却又屡见不鲜。
[02:08.9] 嘹呖的尖叫声充斥着整间屋子,
[02:11.27] 穿过每一扇半阖的门。
[02:23.11] 而这就是那首
[02:26.32] 我最终写下的歌。
