歌词
There's this image of you that I can't shake
我无法动摇你在我心里的形象
That day we drove out to the ocean
那天我们开车去海边
So many things I wanted to say
我有许多话想说
But I knew it, it was all in vain
但我知道,说再多也是徒劳
Life doesn't give you hoops to jump through
生活不会轻易让你跳出包围圈
It gives you tireless roads to cross
它使你不遗余力地走却只在绕路
This sadness came over me
悲伤的情绪向我袭来
So in love, so at a loss
这是爱情啊,让我不知所错
I've wanted you for so very long
日复一日,我都想与你一起
I've been feeling so in between things
无论做什么都感觉如此
Sad and stuck and alone
悲伤、焦躁与孤独
Even when I'm as high as I can get
即使我达到了力所能及的高度
I can't forget I'm on my own
我仍不能忘记这些都归功于自己
Keep thinkin' I can escape this
反复思索,我可以逃出这个“圈”
But there are no red shoes to tap
但却没有红色舞鞋任我踢踏起舞
Just endless crawling through a desert
就像在沙漠里挣扎摸索
And babe, there never was a map
宝贝,但我从来都得不到地图
I've wanted you so very long
日复一日地想你,想要得到你
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
哦~~哦~~哦
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
哦~~哦~~哦
All the people I have grown to love
所有我爱的人呐
That I've had to leave behind
我不得不离开你们
Because that was the way the road turned
因为那是个分岔路口,我不能直行
I'm sorry I have let you down
很抱歉让你们失望了
You caught me in a moment
你们在某一刻抓紧了我
When I was trying to catch the wind
当我试图捕捉风的脚步时
Thought there was some kind of magic
让我以为有某种魔力
But there was just well executed tricks
但那只是逢场把戏而已
I've wanted you so very long
我想和你在一起,很久很久
This is what time does to us
这是时间给我们的回答
We try to fight and never win
我们试图抗争却从未胜利过
There's no plot to follow here
这里,没有阴谋可循
Just repetition of the same old sin
只是同样的旧罪在泛滥
But I keep thinking that I've found it
但我一直认为我找到了
A way to fill up the empty parts in me
一种填补我空虚内心的方法
If it's all temporary
如果那都是暂时的
I guess I'll have to wait and see
我想我应该等待并观望
But I've wanted you so very long
但一直以来,我只想和你在一起
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
哦~~哦~~哦
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
哦~~哦~~哦
The woman who lives above me
住在我楼上的那个女人
I hear her listen to the radio
我听到她的收音机
She loves the old time stations
她喜欢的复古电台
They sing "Lover, don't let me go"
唱着 “爱人呐,别让我离开”
And I have been there before
我也曾置身此地
In that place of desperate need
那个充满欲望的地方
I'm not ready to go back there
我还没有做好回去的准备
To wait for someone else to leave
只为等待另一个人的离开
But I've wanted you so very long
但一直以来,我只想和你在一起
So now I'm turnin' all my lights out
所以现在我熄灭了所有的灯光
I don't know where you are tonight
我不知道今夜的你身在何处
Can feel so close and then so far away
感觉你近在咫尺却又遥不可及
Within the blinking of an eye
眨眼之间
I convince myself I have answers
我说服了自己相信内心的答案
But I always call my bluff
但我总是虚张声势
All I have is my love to give
除了爱,我一无所有
Some day that might be enough
也许有一天,这就足够了
But I've wanted you so very long
但我所想所思皆是你
I've wanted you
我想和你在一起
For so very long
哦~~哦~~哦
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
哦~~哦~~哦
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
哦~~哦~~哦
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
哦~~哦~~哦
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
