The Animals Were Gone

歌词
Woke up and for the first time
清晨醒来
the animals were gone
鸟儿却已远走他乡
It's left this house empty now
久违的寂静
not sure if I belong
令我不知身在何方
Yesterday you asked me
昨天你说
to write you a pleasant song
要我为你作一首欢快的曲歌曲
I'll do my best now
现在我尽我所能
but you've been gone for so long
但你却早已离去
The window's open now
窗户敞开着
and the winter settles in
冷风呼啸着进屋
We'll call it Christmas
我们把它称为圣诞节
when the adverts begin
当广告铺天盖地的时候
I love your depression
我爱你的忧伤失落
and I love your double chin
我爱你可爱的双下巴
I love 'most everything
我爱你所给予我的
that you bring to this offering
所有一切
Oh I know that I left you
我知道我曾
in places of despair
我曾让你陷入绝望
Oh I know that I love you
可如果你仍爱我
so please throw down your hair
能否放下你的冷漠与戒备
At night I trip without you
我独自在晦暗的夜梦中彷徨
and hope I don't wake up
只想就此一去不回
'Cause waking up without you
醒来不见你的身影
is like drinking from an empty cup
那心痛就像无酒的宿醉
Woke up and for the first time
清晨醒来
the animals were gone
鸟儿却已远走他乡
Our clocks are ticking now
一切已成回忆
so before our time is gone
所以 请在时间终结前回到我身边
We could get a house
我们本可以买下一幢小屋
and some boxes on the lawn
草地旁摆上你心爱的木箱
We could make babies
我们本可以生孩子
and accidental songs
和悠然地创作歌曲
I know I've been a liar
我知道我曾欺骗过你
and I know I've been a fool
我也知道我曾经太傻
I hope we didn't break yet
我多希望我们没有分开
but I'm glad we broke the rules
但我也很高兴我们打破了常规
My cave is deep now
即使我现在身处幽深的洞穴
yet your light is shining through
你的光亮仍然照耀着我
I cover my eyes' still all I see is you
即使我蒙上双眼
Oh I know that I left you
看到的仍然都是你
in places of despair
我曾让你陷入无助和伤悲
Oh I know that I love you
可如果你仍爱我
so please throw down your hair
能否放下你的冷漠与戒备
At night I trip without you
我独自在晦暗的夜梦中彷徨
and hope I don't wake up
只想就此一去不回
'Cause waking up without you is
醒来不见你的身影
like drinking from an empty cup
那心痛就像无酒的宿醉
