  • 作词 : Bruce Springsteen
    作曲 : Bruce Springsteen
    Bill Horton was a cautious man of the road
    He walked lookin' over his shoulder and remained faithful to its code
    When something caught his eye, he'd measure his need
    And then very carefully he'd proceed
    Billy met a young girl in the early days of May
    It was there in her arms, he let his cautiousness slip away
    In their lovers' twilight as the evening sky grew dim
    He'd lay back in her arms and laugh at what had happened to him
    On his right hand, Billy'd tattooed the word "love", on his left hand was the word "fear"
    And in which hand he held his fate was never clear
    Come Indian summer, he took his young lover for his bride
    And with his own hands built her a great house down by the riverside
    Now Billy was an honest man, he wanted to do what was right
    He worked hard to fill their lives with happy days and loving night
    Alone on his knees in the darkness for steadiness he'd pray
    For he knew in a restless heart the seed of betrayal lay
    One night Billy awoke from a terrible dream callin' his wife's name
    She lay breathing beside him in a peaceful sleep a thousand miles away
    He got dressed in the moonlight and down to the highway he strode
    When he got there, he didn't find nothing but road
    Billy felt a coldness rise up inside him that he couldn't name
    Just as the words tattooed 'cross his knuckles he knew would always remain
    At their bedside, he brushed the hair from his wife's face as the moon shone on her skin so white
    Filling their room in the beauty of God's fallen light
