Empty garden Elton John (Elton John/Bernie Taupin)
What happened here ? As the New York sunset disappeared I found an empty garden among the flagstones there Who lived here ? He must have been a gardener that cared a lot Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop But now it all looks strange It's funny how one insect can damage so much grain
And what's it for ? This little empty garden by the brownstone door And in the cracks along the sidewalk Nothing grows no more Who lived here ? He must have been a gardener that cared a lot Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop And we are so amazed1, we're crippled2 and we're dazed A gardener like that one, no one can replace
*And I've been knocking But no one answers And I've been knocking most all the day Oh, and I've been calling Oh, 'hey hey Johnny' Can't you come out to play
And through their tears Some say he farmed his best in younger years But he'd have said that roots grow stronger if he could hear Who lived there He must have been a gardener that cared a lot Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop Now we pray for rain And with every drop that falls We hear your name
And I've been knocking But no one answers And I've been knocking most all the day Oh, and I've been calling Oh, 'hey hey Johnny' Can't you come out to play
Johnny, can't you come out to play ? Johnny, in your empty garden

空寂花园 艾尔顿强
这里发生了么事? 当纽约的夕阳西沉 我在石板堆中发现了一座空寂花园 是谁住在这里? 他一定是位工作勤奋的园丁 含着泪除草,只为使花草欣欣向荣 但这景象看起来多么怪异 可笑的是,一只小虫子怎会破坏这么多的栽种
这是为什么? 这座有着褐石大门的空寂花园 在人行道上的裂缝里 不再有植物生长 是谁住在这里? 他一定是位工作勤奋的园丁 含着泪除草,只为使花草欣欣向荣 我们都很惊讶、无助与困惑 这样的一位园丁,是无人可取代的
我敲了很久的门 却没有人前来应门 我敲了一整天的门 噢!我不断的呼喊 强尼............ 你可以出来玩吗?
透过人们的泪水 有人说他在年轻岁月里耕耘得最卖力 但他说过如果他能听见,必能使根扎得更深 是谁住在这里? 他一定是位工作勤奋的园丁 含着泪除草,只为使花草欣欣向荣 如今,我们祈雨 每一颗落下的雨滴 我们都听见了你的名字
我敲了很久的门 却没有人前来应门 我敲了一整天的门 噢!我不断的呼喊 强尼............ 你可以出来玩吗?
强尼,你可以出来玩吗? 在你的空寂花园里
