作曲：Lou Reed

You're an adventurer

You sail across the oceans

You climb the himalayas

Seeking truth and beauty as a natural state

You're a queen reborn

Worshipped from above afar

Some see you as an elixir

An elemental natural seeking perfect grace

In a catacomb

Or cave of endless drawings

Prehistoric or religious

Your accomplishments prodigious

Seeking out the perfect tone

Your language so clear

Your voice perfectly turning

As in the city I sit yearning

Blowing rings of smoke from thin cigars

Or driving fast in foreign cars

To capture your remains huh

You're an adventurer

A turban wet wrapped round your head

On the mountainside they predict your death

Oh how you fooled them all

But subjects are a poor excuse

When what you really wants a muse

An inspirating knowledge

Of what comes before

Ooohhh speeds of light

The momentary flicker

Of a candle in its wicker basket

Smoking wax facts

Did you find that superior knowledge

That eluded you in college

Did you find that super vortex

That could cause your cerebral cortex

Ooohhh to lose its grip

You're an adventurer

You were out looking for meaning

While the rest of us were steaming

In an inspirating

Ah urban pit

An adventurer

You enter as I'm dreaming

I wish I'd never wake up

Differentiating scheming from my one true love

You're an adventurer

You love the angles and the cherries

The height and width of levies

The natural bridge and tunnels of the human race

You're an adventurer

Nothing seem to scare you

And if it does it won't dissuade you

You just will not think about it

You dismiss it and defocus

You redefine the locus of your time in space race

As you move further from me

And though I understand the thinking

And have often done the same thing

I find parts of me gone

You're an adventurer

And though I'll surely miss you

And of course I'll survive without you

And maybe good will come of that

But at this point ah

I anticipate some grieving

And although I know your leaving

Is a necessary adjunct to what we both do

An adventurer

Splitting up the atom

Splitting up the once was

Splitting up the essence of our star crossed fate

None who meet you

Do forget you my adventurer

My adventurer my adventurer
