The Heart of the Matter

歌词
I got the call today I didn't wanna hear
我最不想听到的消息还是来了
But I knew that it would come
但我知道它迟早会来
An old true friend of ours was talkin'on the phone
我们的一位旧时好友在电话里说
She said you found someone
她说你找到了属于你的那位
And I thought of all the bad luck
我想到了我们经历过的所有坏运气
And all the struggles we went through
和所经受的所有磨难
How I lost me and you lost you
你失去了我,我也失去了你
What are these voices outside love's open door
在敞开着的心扉之外,是什么声音
Make us throw off our contentment
使我们不再感到满足
And beg for something more
而苛求得到更多的东西呢
I've been learning to live without you now
我一直在学会怎样没有你过活
But I miss you sometimes
但我时而想起你
The more I know the less I understand
所知愈多,真正理解的却愈少
All the things I thought I knew I'm learning them again
我想,我知道的所有事情都需要再次反思
I've been tryin'to get down to the Heart of the Matter
我一直努力认真思考这事的实质核心
But my will gets weak
但我意志薄弱
And my thoughts seem to scatter
思绪飘散
But I think it's about forgiveness
但我想,都是关乎于原谅吧
Forgiveness
原谅所有
Even if even if you don't love me anymore
即使,即使你不再爱我
These times are so uncertain
不确定的时机
There's a yearning undefined
不明晰的渴望与思念
And people filled with rage
让人疯狂
We all need a little tenderness
我们需要的是一些冷静
How can love survive in such a graceless age
爱要如何在这个粗俗的时代存活?
And the trust and self-assurance that leads to happiness
信任和自信会带来幸福
They're the very things we kill I guess
我想那是我们已经毁了的东西
Pride and competition cannot fill these empty arms
骄傲和较劲不能填满这些空荡的臂弯
And the work they put between us
那些给我们之间带来的东西
You know it doesn't keep us warm
已经不能给我们温暖,你知道的
I've been trying to live without you now
我一直在学会怎样没有你过活
But I miss you baby
但我很想你,宝贝
The more I know the less I understand
所知愈多,真正理解的却愈少
And all the things I thought I figured out I have to learn again
我想,我弄清的所有事情都需要再次反思
I've been tryin'to get down to the Heart of the Matter
我一直努力认真思考这事的实质核心
But everything changes
但一切已变
And my friends seem to scatter
我的朋友们也渐行渐远
But i think it's about forgivenes
但我想,都是关乎于原谅吧
Forgiveness
原谅一切
Even if even if you don't love me anymore
即使,即使你不再爱我
there are people in your life who've come and gone
生活中有很多来之又去的人
They let you down you know they hurt your pride
他们让你低落,摧毁你的骄傲,你知道的
Better put it all behind you cause life goes on
最好的是将其抛在身后,因为你知道生活还要继续
You keep carrin'that anger it'll eat you up inside baby
沉浸在愤怒中,只会吞噬你的内心,宝贝
I've been trying to get down
我一直努力认真思考
To the heart of the matter
这事的实质核心
But my will gets weak
但我意志薄弱
And my thought seem to scatter
思绪飘散
But i think it's about forgiveness
但我想,都是关乎于原谅吧
Forgiveness
原谅一切
Even if,even if you don't love me
即使,即使你不再爱我
I've been tryin'to get down
我一直努力认真思考
To the heart of the matter
这事的实质核心
Because the flesh will get weak
因为我们终将老去
And the ashes will scatter
化作尘烟消散
So i'm thinkin'about forgiveness
所以,我想都是关乎于原谅吧
Forgiveness
原谅一切
Even if,even if you don't love me
即使,即使你不再爱我
Forgiveness -yeah
原谅一切,是的
Forgiveness -baby
原谅一切,宝贝
Forgiveness
原谅一切
Forgiveness
原谅一切
Forgiveness
原谅一切
Forgiveness
原谅一切
Even if,you dont love me anymore
即使你不再爱我
