On a dark desert highway 行驶在昏黑的荒漠公路上
Cool wind in my hair 凉风吹过我的头发
Warm smell of colitas 温馨的colitas香
Rising Up through the air 弥漫在空气中
Up ahead in the distance 抬头遥望远方
I saw a shimmering light 我看到一丝微弱的灯光
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim 我的头越来越沉,视线也变得模糊
I had to stop for the night 我不得不停下来过夜
There she stood in the doorway 她站在门那儿等候我
I heard the mission bell 我听到远处教堂的钟声
And I was thinking to myself 我在心里对自己说
This could be heaven or this could be hell 这里也许是天堂也可能是地狱
Then she lit up a candle 她点燃了蜡烛
And she showed me the way 并给我引路
There were voices down in corridor 走廊深处传来阵阵说话声
I thought I heard them say... 我想我听到他们在说…
