歌词
You're looking for a way out, I can feel it
你正找寻着摆脱这段关系的方法,我能察觉到
露出那隐隐作痛的伤口,也许我能将它治愈
Come on, show me where it hurts, maybe I can heal it
你的心门不再对我敞开,可我不知道怎么了
Your feelings are your own, now you keep them under lock and key
这让我在空荡的大街上驾车寻找着答案
You've got me driving through the streets for an answer to the mystery
Charleston Avenue上的世界仍然清醒着
就在那空缺的星光旅馆外(Starlight Motel位于Las Vegas,有着迷人和明亮的高霓虹灯)
我看见了你 (对Flowers来说,他们的关系充满了光明的可能性。Flowers就是这个女孩的Starlight Motel)
The world's still awake on Charleston Avenue
和你的女伴们嬉笑着
Outside that vacant starlight motel
对所处的这个世界根本不在乎(此处应指上文中Charleston Avenue上的世界)
I see you
心中更无负担
Laughing with your girlfriends
我想这只是个时间问题
Not a care in the world
房子被惶恐不安所笼罩,害怕着那无法面对的结果浮出水面
Not a burden on your mind
现在即使只是穿过前门便让我紧张
真相正爬上地板,让我想知道我此时究竟在哪
It was a matter of time
我放不下火来让这段感情结束,即便我手里捧着一堆火柴
我还记得我们第一次见面时你任性和充满怀疑的样子
There's a panic in this house and it's bound to surface
我花掉整个夏天努力工作却只是为了换来带你出去的机会
我永远在退缩着
Just walking through the front door makes me nervous
当你告诉我你的心中所想
It's creeping up the floorboards, got me wondering where I stand
你把这段感情当成赌注
I cannot put out the fire, I've got a book of matches in my hand
和你的女伴们嬉笑着
对所处的这个世界根本不在乎
When we first met, headstrong and filled with doubt
心中更无负担
Made just enough, hustling tables, that summer to take you out
你是在冒险
I was falling back on forever
我想这只是个时间问题
When you told me about your heart
这只是个时间问题
You laid it on the line
我们会找到属于自己的地方,我们永远属于这里
可这不就是我们的一切吗?
许下诺言并保证坚守它
Laughing with your girlfriends
不论有什么困难
Not a care in the world
我们都将会想出解决方法
Not a burden on your mind
而这也许是黑夜和月亮
You're hanging on the line!
抑或是花园里的青草
又或是胜利与罪恶
It was just a matter
我知道你现在身心疲惫,看着我
It was a matter of time
蜷缩在角落里
这是给你的毛巾
We'd find ourselves a place, we belong in this forever
分手吧,我们早该这样
Ain't that what it's all about?
这只是个时间问题
Make the promise and keep it
难道你看不见我的内心已被此撕裂吗?
Come hell or high water
看看我们脚下
We'd figure it out
那是破碎的梦的残骸
还有燃烧殆尽的光环
It was the night, it was the moon
新的希望就在这黎明即将来临的街道上
It was the green grass in the garden
The victory and the sin
I know you're weary, look at me
Flailing in the corner
Here's the towel
Go on, throw it in
It was a matter of time
Can't you see that it's tearing me up inside?
Look what's laying at our feet
That's the wreckage of broken dreams
And burned out halos
And it's here on our street
