歌词与中文翻译
Morning comes too early and nighttime falls too late
黎明来得太早 夜降临得太晚
And sometimes all I want to do is wait
有时我想做的唯独是等待
The shadow I’ve been hiding in has fled from me today
我赖以躲藏的影子,今已逃离我而去
I know it’s easier to walk away than look it in the eye
我知道逃开要比直视它的眼睛容易
But I will raise a shelter to the sky
但我会在天空下撑起一片庇护伞
And beneath this
今夜我
Star tonight I’ll lie
就在这星空下仰卧
She will slowly yield the light
她会慢慢点起一道光
As I awaken from the longest night
当我从这最漫长的黑夜醒来
Dreams are shaking
震颤的梦
Set sirens waking up tired eyes
拉响警鸣惊醒着沉睡的眼
With the light memories all rush into his head
百般回忆在那道光中涌入大脑
By a candle stands a mirror
蜡烛旁立着的 映着他心魄的镜子中
Of his heart and soul she dances
她翩翩起舞
She was dancing through the night above his bed
舞过他床上的漫漫夜空
And walking to the window
他走向窗边
He throws the shutters out
拉开百叶帘
Against the wall
掷向墙边去
And from an ivory tower hears her call
他听见了她从象牙塔里传来的呼唤
’let the light surround you’
“让那光围绕着你”
It’s been a long, long time
不知用了多长时间
He’s had awhile to hink it over
他思来想去想去思来个究竟
In the end he only sees the change
最后只是空望昼夜轮转
Light to dark
白了黑
Dark to light
黑了白
Light to dark
白了黑
Dark to light
黑了白
Heaven must be more than this
天堂一定比这强吧
When angels waken with a kiss
当天使被吻唤醒
Sacred hearts won’t take the pain
神性的心永远不会痛
But mine will never be the same
但我的心会啊
He stands before the window
他站在窗前
His shadow slowly fading from the wall
墙上的影子随着晨光亮起渐渐模糊
And from an ivory tower he hears her call
他听见她从象牙塔里传来的呼唤
’let the light surround you’
“让那光围绕着你”
Once lost but I was found
一时神游
When I heard the stained glass shatter all around me
听见身边的彩玻璃破碎一地时 我突然惊醒
I sent the spirits tumbling down the hill
我让我的灵魂颠簸着滚下山坡
But I will hold this one on high above me still
但我仍会让肉体扛着肩头的大石往上走(语出荷马史诗里西西弗斯的神话)
I once could see but now at last I’m blind
我曾经眼观世界却已失明
I know it’s easier to walk away than look it in the eye
我知道逃离要比直视它的双眼来得容易
But I had given all than I could take
但我已经献出了我能承受的所有
And now I’ve only habits left to break
现在我只剩等待抛却的习惯了
Tonight I’ll still be lying here
今夜我仍将仰卧在这里
Surrounded in all the light
在这围绕着我的光里
