歌词
If I had to break it down, I'd say it's the way you love to dance
若定要我打破这隔阂 我会解释说 你喜爱这样的舞步
Moving the furniture when my back is turned
搬动家具 腾出空地跳舞 我的背影翻转
A flick of the lights and the world falls away
灯光闪烁 世界为之倾尽
And your office job, and your silver hair
忆起你在办公室的差事 和你那银白色的发梢
But our shapes in the dark are the reason I've stayed for all these years
你我黑暗中起舞的身影 便是我多年来驻留的原因
I thought I was a genius
曾想入非非 自己天赋异凛
But now I'm twenty two
但如今 我来到这世间 已有二十二年
And it's starting to feel like all I know how to do is
脑子想的唯有 我知道 自己该这样做
Put on a suit and take it away
披上外套 将它与自己一并带走吧
With my fistful of tunes that it's painful to play
随着我那每当奏起 便令人心悸的段段曲调
Fingernail worlds, like favourite seashells
指甲大小的世界 如同最令我心动的贝壳
They fill up my nights and then they float away
充斥整个夜晚 片刻便随风飘散
I've got hundreds of gowns, I've got paintings in frames
我有着数百件长袍 和镶嵌在画框中的画作
And a throat that fills with panic every festival day
每逢佳节 喉中便满盈着恐慌
Dutifully falling apart for the princess of Norway
只尽职尽责地 为挪威的公主分崩离析
But you with your doll's lashes, your infinite T-shirts
但你长着娃娃般的睫毛 套着数不清的T恤衫
I should've known when your favourite record was the same as my father's you'd take me down
我早该知道 若你喜爱和父亲相同的唱片 你便会令我堕落
I guess I'll always be this way
想必我会依这条道路前行
Swallowed up by the words and halfway to space
被吞噬于字里行间 又在半途 飞往无垠宇宙
But there by the fire, you offered your hand
围坐在火窟旁 你向我伸出了手
And as I took it, I loved you, the boy with the plan
随着我携起它 便与面前这个有计谋的男孩 共赴爱河
You felled me clean as a pine
你将我的枝干尽数砍下 如同松树般萧瑟
The man with the axe
那拎着斧子的男人
And the light in his eyes
眼中闪着熠熠光芒
We've been through so many hard times, I'm writing a love song
多少年来我们同甘共苦
For you, baby
让我再为你写一支情歌
