歌词
Sugar cubes and rock salt
糖块甜蜜,盐块苦涩
Poetry and insults
就像是我们的生活有苦有甜
She is in this room but far away
虽然她身在此屋,但心思我却捉摸不透
Philosophy and child's play
我有时明白,有时糊涂
Blue-skied days
白日晴空
Black-skied nights
夜晚昏黑
Naked skin, covers, fights
裸露的皮肤,我辗转反侧
Thinking things I'll never say
思绪连篇 却对她我缄口不言
It's just one of those days
这不过又是平淡的一天
Let me count the ways I love her
让我想想该如何去爱她
Then I'll count the way I don't
再想想我哪里有所疏忽
I would do anything for her
我愿为她付出所有
Expect for what I won't
除了那些我做不到的事情
Not much that I won't
可没几件我做不到的
Sugar cubes and rock salt
生活无论是甜是苦
We ante up and we default
我们都默然咽下
The boredom that her eyes convey
她的眼神中已毫无爱意
We're atheists who wheel and pray
我们不信鬼神 但却不停地祈祷
Rising waves, ebbing tiding
生活总是起起落落
Holding hands on coaster rides
就像坐着过山车
Black, white, mix to gray
黑色和白色,混合成灰色
There will be other days
生活可还有其他色彩?
Let me count the ways I love her
让我想想该如何去爱她
Then I'll count the ways I don't
再想想我哪里有所疏忽
I could say anything to her
我愿为她付出一切
Expect for what I don't
但现在我似乎又不能
Don't know why I don't
不知为何我不能
Wonder why I don't
思考着为何我不能
Today this kid
今天有个学生
He came into my office
他跑进我的办公室
Wondering how to ask a girl out

Said she was the kind of pretty

That scared the words away

Never asked Sara on the first date
