Love And Marriage终归于沉寂,音乐再响起,金色短发的姑娘咬咬鲜红欲滴的嘴唇,拖着长长的尾音低唱:
“Start spreading the news, i'm leaving today I want to be a part of it - new york, new york These vagabond shoes, are longing to stray Right through the very heart of it - new york, new york I wanna wake up in a city, that doesn't sleep And find i'm king of the hill - top of the heap。”
“New York New York是我母亲生前最喜欢的歌曲”,布兰登打破了沉默,脸色平静全然不像来时那样热情:“西蒙,我父亲前后有过三个女人,我的母亲是他的原配。母亲的身体一直不好,他就在外面和一个妓女有了孩子,后来妓女死了,那个野孩子来到我们家,他带来了灾难和瘟疫,我的母亲没有活过他来的那个冬天。然后是在母亲生病期间照顾过她的女佣,美国人,很温柔的女人,她说过要在罗伯特出生后照顾我们。她从来不说代替我的母亲,从来不动属于母亲的东西,她知道她的存在不过是为了发泄欲望。那些可怜的女人都是一个人的牺牲品,原本她们可以有更好的人生。”
“I want to wake up in a city, that never sleeps And find i'm a number one top of the list, king of the hill A number one These little town blues, are melting away I'm gonna make a brand new start of it - in old new york And if i can make it there, i'm gonna make it anywhere It up to you - new york new york”
