有时候 我们的人生会与别人的碰撞 Sometimes we're on a collision course
只是我们不知道而已 and we just don't know it.
无论是意外 还是注定 Whether it's by accident or by design,
我们都无法改变 there's not a thing we can do about it.
一位在巴黎的女子要出门购物 A woman in Paris was on her way to go shopping.
她忘了带外套 于是就回去拿 But she had forgotten her coat, went back to get it.
她拿上了外套 电话响了 When she had gotten her coat, the phone had rung.
然后她接起电话 聊了一会儿 So she had stopped to answer it and talked for a couple of minutes.
这个女子打电话时 While the woman was on the phone,
Daisy正在为巴黎歌剧院的演出做彩排 Daisy was rehearsing for a performance at the Paris Opera House.
彩排时 这个女子挂了电话 And while she was rehearsing, the woman, off the phone now,
出门打出租车 had gone outside to get a taxi.
出租车司机送完了上一位客人 Now, a taxi driver had dropped off a fare earlier,
停车去买咖啡 and had stopped to get a cup of coffee.
与此同时 Daisy还在排练 And all the while, Daisy was rehearsing.
那位刚送完了客人 And this cab driver, who dropped off the earlier fare
停车去买咖啡的司机 and had stopped to get the cup of coffee,
恰好接到了要去购物的女子 he picked up the lady who was going shopping
正因如此 那位女子错过了上一辆出租车 and had missed getting the earlier cab.
有个男人过马路 车子只好停下 The taxi had to stop for a man crossing the street,
这个男人比平时晚起了5分钟 who had left for work five minutes later than he normally did
因为他忘了上闹钟 because he forgot to set his alarm.
当那个工作迟到的人横穿马路的时候 While that man, late for work, was crossing the street,
Daisy已经彩排结束 正在洗澡 Daisy had finished rehearsing and was taking a shower.
Daisy洗澡的时候 And while Daisy was showering,
出租车停在店门口 the taxi was waiting outside a boutique
等那位女子取包裹 for the woman to pick up a package
而包裹还没打包好 which hadn't been wrapped yet,
因为打包的女孩 because the girl who was supposed to wrap it
前一晚和她男朋友分手 然后就忘了 had broken up with her boyfriend the night before and forgot.
打包好之后 女子回到出租车上 When the package was wrapped, the woman, who was back in the cab,
又被一辆货车挡住去路 was blocked by a delivery truck.
这时候 Daisy正在穿衣服 All the while, Daisy was getting dressed.
货车开走了 出租车重新上路 The delivery truck pulled away, and the taxi was able to move
Daisy最后一个穿好衣服 while Daisy, the last to be dressed,
又等了一会儿她断了鞋带的朋友 waited for one of her friends who had broken a shoelace.
出租车停下等红绿灯时 While the taxi was stopped, waiting for a traffic light,
Daisy和她朋友从剧院后门出来 Daisy and her friend came out the back of the theater.
如果有一件事不一样 And if only one thing had happened differently,
如果鞋带没有断 if that shoelace hadn't broken
如果那货车早一点开走 or that delivery truck had moved moments earlier
或者包裹早已打包好 or that package had been wrapped and ready
因为女孩没跟她男朋友分手 because the girl hadn't broken up with her boyfriend,
或者那个男人定了闹钟 早起5分钟 or that man had set his alarm and got up five minutes earlier
或者司机没有停下来买咖啡 or that taxi driver hadn't stopped for a cup of coffee
或者那个女子记得带外套 or that woman had remembered
然后上了前一辆出租车 her coat and got into an earlier cab,
Daisy和她朋友就能安全穿过马路 Daisy and her friend would have crossed the street
那出租车也只是擦肩而过 and the taxi would have driven by.
但生活就是这样 But, life being what it is,
一系列生活的交错和意外 a series of intersecting lives and incidents
没人能够控制 out of anyone's control,
出租车没有和她们擦肩而过 that taxi did not go by,
那时司机又分了神 and that driver was momentarily distracted.
Daisy Daisy!
出租车就撞到了Daisy And that taxi hit Daisy.
Daisy 来人啊 Daisy! Help!
她的腿被撞断了 And her leg was crushed.
Daisy Daisy?
- 谁告诉你的 - 你朋友给我写信了 - Who told you? - Your friend wired me.
这么远来看我 你真是太好了 Very kind of you to come all this way to see that I was all right.
要是你 你也会这么做的 You'd do the same for me.
天哪 My God.
看看你 多完美啊 Look at you. You're perfect.
我真希望你没来 I wish you hadn't come here.
我不想让你看到我这副样子 I don't want you to see me like this.
她的腿5处断裂 Her leg had been broken in five places.
如果进行长时间治疗 她或许能重新走路 And with therapy and time, she might walk again.
但是再也不能跳舞了 But she'd never dance.
我要带你回家 I'm gonna take you home with me.
- 我想照顾你 - 我不回新奥尔良 - I want to look after you. - I'm not going back to New Orleans.
那我就留在巴黎 Then I'll stay here in Paris.
你听不懂吗 我不想让你帮我 Don't you understand? I don't want your help.
我现在是很难过 I know I'm feeling sorry for myself,
但我也不想跟你在一起 but I don't want to be with you.
在纽约我就告诉你了 你就是不听 Tried to tell you that in New York. You don't listen.
你可能会改变主意 You might change your mind.
我们都不是小孩儿了 Benjamin We are not little children anymore, Benjamin.
别再掺和我的生活了 Just stay out of my life.
我太狠心了 I was awfully cruel.
他不明白 我只是不想让他看到我那副样子 He didn't understand. I couldn't have him see me like that.
"我并没有马上离开 "I didn't leave right away.
我在巴黎待了一段时间 暗中照顾她" I stayed in Paris for a while to look out for her."
我都不知道呢 I never knew that.
亲爱的 能帮我叫下护士吗 Oh, darling, could you get the nurse?
我重新学会走路 I taught myself to walk again.
我坐了火车去卢尔德 I took the train to Lourdes.
我看看 很正常 脉搏缓下来了 Let's take a look. That's normal. Pulse rate is slowing.
稍后可能会呼吸困难 She is gonna struggle to breathe.
- 你没事吧 - 没事 - Will you be all right? - Yeah.
好了 他写道 "我回到家" All right, he says, "I went back home."
这里有很多页被撕掉了 And then there's a lot of pages torn out.
"我听着房子里的声音" 我读过了 "I listened to the sound of the house." I read that already.
他 He...
他把什么洒到纸上了 看不清 He spilt something on it, so it's hard to read, Mom.
好像是关于航海的 你知道是什么吗 Something about sailing, does that make sense?
我用父亲留在湖边别墅的帆船学会了航行 I learned to sail an old boat of my father's from the lake house.
说实话 I can't lie.
我的确很享受有一两位姑娘的陪伴 I did enjoy the company of a woman or two.
或者3位 Or maybe three.

就是说嘛 我也从不觉得你是自私的人 Yeah, well, I never took you to be the selfish type.
但愿如此 I sure hope I'm not wrong.

我邀请她跟我出游 I asked her to come away with me.
我们沿着佛罗里达群岛 一路驶进墨西哥湾 We sailed into the Gulf along the Florida Keys.
我很庆幸26岁那年我没和你在一起 I am so glad we didn't find one another when I was 26.
- 为什么这么说 - 那时我太年轻 - Why do you say that? - I was so young.
你也太老了 And you were so old.
瓜熟蒂落 水到渠成 It happened when it was supposed to happen.
我会珍惜和你在一起的每分每秒 I will enjoy each and every moment I have with you.
我打赌 我在这能比你坚持得更久 I bet I can stay out here longer than you.
你肯定不行 I bet you can't.

而我每天都会多长几条 不公平 Every day I have more wrinkles. It's not fair.
我爱你的皱纹 所有皱纹都爱 I love your wrinkles. Both of them.
越来越年轻是什么感觉 What's it like growing younger?
真是不好说 我看不到所有变化 I can't really say. I'm always looking out my own eyes.

所以 即使没有发生意外 So, even if nothing ever happened,
你还是会回到现在的地方 you'd still be right here where you are now.

他的健康状况不太乐观 被送去了医院 He's in very poor health. He was taken to the hospital.
他都不知道自己是谁 在哪里 他很糊涂 He doesn't seem to know who or where he is. He's very confused.
我跟Hernandez先生说了 Benjamin是我们的一员 I was telling Mr. Hernandez that Benjamin is one of us.
如果他需要住的地方 就住这里吧 If he needs a place to stay, it's all right, he can stay here.

你弹得真好 You play beautifully.
他好像不喜欢被人碰 He doesn't seem to like to be touched.
他记性时好时坏 认不得人 He goes in and out of states of recognition.

我每天都会去看他过得怎么样 I would stop by to make sure that he was comfortable.
- 不 我没吃 - 你刚吃完 - No, I didn't. - You just finished eating.
别以为我不知道你们在搞什么 Don't think I don't know what you're doing!
你们都他妈是骗子 You're all fucking liars!
他不相信他刚吃过早饭了 He doesn't believe he just had his breakfast.
我们来看看 Now, why don't we see
能不能找点别的事情做呢 if we can't find something else for you to do?
我总觉得 有很多事情我都记不得了 I have a feeling there's a lot of things I can't remember.
比如什么呢 宝贝 Well, like what, sugar?
比如 我好像活了很久 It's like there's this whole life I had,
但却不记得我的人生 and I can't remember what it was.
没事 It's okay.
忘记事情没什么的 It's okay to forget things.
很多时候 他不记得自己是谁 在哪 Many times, he would simply forget who or where he was.
