歌词
Why do you stand by the window
你为何于窗前茕茕孑立
Abandoned to beauty and pride
放下美貌与骄傲,遗世而独立
The thorn of the night in your bosom
这安静的夜晚刺痛了你的心头
The spear of the age in your side
这流逝的岁月入侵到你的身旁
Lost in the rages of fragrance
你迷失在馥郁的芳香中
Lost in the rags of remorse
你坠入到悔恨的思绪里
Lost in the waves of a sickness
病痛如潮水般袭来
That loosens the high silver nerves
让你放松了紧绷的神经
Oh chosen love, Oh frozen love
啊,这命中注定的、却如冰般寒凉的爱情
Oh tangle of matter and ghost
让我在真实和虚幻之间纠缠流连
Oh darling of angels, demons and saints
啊,亲爱的你像天使,像魔鬼,又像一个圣徒
And the whole broken-hearted host
让我这颗心支离破碎
Gentle this soul
你就这样俘获了我的灵魂
And come forth from the cloud of unknowing
你穿过虚无的云层向我走来
And kiss the cheek of the moon
亲吻着月亮的脸颊
The New Jerusalem glowing
就像一片新的圣地,炽热而真实
Why tarry all night in the ruin
你为何在废墟中彻夜逗留
And leave no word of discomfort
不曾向谁吐露你的忧愁
And leave no observer to mourn
不让他人察觉你的悲哀
But climb on your tears and be silent
但你却无言,只用眼泪铺就向前的路
Like a rose on its ladder of thorns
就像一支循刺而上的玫瑰
Oh chosen love, Oh frozen love...
啊,这命中注定的、却如冰般寒凉的爱情
Oh tangle of matter and ghost
让我在真实和虚幻之间纠缠流连
And the whole broken-hearted host
我这颗心早已支离破碎
Gentle this soul
你就这样俘获了我的灵魂
Then lay your rose on the fire
我把要送给你的玫瑰付之一炬
The fire give up to the sun
火焰如阳光般炽烈
The sun give over to splendour
但是太阳也收起它的光芒
In the arms of the high holy one
在至圣的神明中憩息
For the holy one dreams of a letter
神明的梦中出现了一封信
Dreams of a letter's death
这封信却消散在梦境中
Oh bless thee continuous stutter
啊,但愿你虽然支支吾吾
Of the word being made into flesh
却能坚决地把你的话付诸实践
Oh chosen love, Oh frozen love...
啊,这命中注定的、却如冰般寒凉的爱情
Gentle this soul
你就这样俘获了我的灵魂
