The One Who Stayed and the One Who Left (Bonus Track)

歌词
He went to visit an old, old friend
他去访一老友
And it was long, long overdue
赴一久失的约
And though they stayed up very late
他们虽熬至夜浓
They never talked out of turn or tune
却从未冷场或失言
And every time they'd say goodbye
而每每道了别
Well he'd just stay another while
他都会再多待一会儿
They started from a distant place
他们自远方启程
And were so happy face to face
赶来相见 不亦乐乎
The one who left wanted everything
离开的那个人想要一切
The one who stayed never wanted more
留下的那个人别无他求
It's not your choice, it's how you're built
这无关你的抉择 而关乎你的内在
It's in a blueprint of your soul
它印在你灵魂的蓝图上
The one who left, he dropped his smile
离开的那个人 遗落了他的微笑
And they sat quiet for a while
他们静坐片刻
Then The one who stayed began to speak
留下的那个人开口了
And in his words, he answered why
他于言辞中 解释了为何
I'm just another drop in the bucket
我只是竹篮中的另一颗水珠
I'm just another song on a jukebox
我只是点唱机上另一支歌曲
I'm just another face in the crowd
我只是人群里的另一副面孔
Another fish in the sea
海中另一尾鱼
Something to being one of the many
千夫之一
Something to being one in the masses
万物之一
Something to being surrounded by others and not alone by yourself
被众人围绕 并非只身独立
I never wanted the bright lights and my eyes are much too quiet
我从未奢望耀目的光 我的双眸沉静着
I never wanted them pointing their fingers at me
我从未期盼过他们对我指点
Oh no, but...
哦不 可
Something to being one of the many
千夫之一
Something to being one in the masses
万物之一
Something to being surrounded by others and not alone by yourself
被他人围绕 并非只身独立
The one who left he knew it then
离开的那个人当时就已知晓
And he would never doubt again
他不会再有所狐疑
He loved this life, he loved his friend
他热爱生活 热爱朋友
But he'd keep running 'til the end
他会一直奔跑到最后
All words they said hovered above
所有他们说过的话在头顶盘旋
All of the pain, all of the love
所有的痛楚 所有的爱
They hugged goodbye
他们轻拥作别
And in his room, he sang real quiet to the moon
在房间里 他向着月亮唱着 很轻很轻
Something to being one of the many who get to sing the songs on the jukebox
我们只是众生之一 唱着点唱机上的歌的众生
Who get to stay awake all night and dream half of the day
清醒整夜又浮梦半日的众生
Something to waking up in a new town
我们在新的镇子醒来
Something to singing songs to a new crowd
我们向着新的人群歌唱
Something to being surrounded by others and not alone by yourself
我们被众人围绕 并非只身独立
I never wanted the bright lights and my eyes are much too quiet
我从未奢望耀目的光 我的双眸沉静着
I never wanted them pointing their fingers at me
我从未期盼他们的指点
Oh no, but...
哦不 可
Something to being one of the many who get to sing the songs on the jukebox
我们只是众生之一 唱着点唱机上的歌的众生
Who get to stay awake all night and dream half of the day
清醒整夜又浮梦半日的众生
Then wake up in a new town
然后我们在新的镇子醒来
Just another face in the crowd
只是人群中的一副面孔
