Atlantic

My god, I thought
上帝，我在想
My god, what a sunset
我的天，眼前是多么壮丽的日落
Blood red floods the Atlantic
血红淹没了大西洋
With a wine in my hand
我手里拿着酒
Laid back in the grass of some stranger's field
躺在某个陌生人的草地上
While shearwaters reeled overhead
大剪嘴鸥在头顶摇摇晃晃地飞行
Thinking I should get all this dying off of my mind
我想我应该忘掉这一切
I should really know better than to read the headlines
不去读那些头条报道，我也能明辨事理
Does it matter if I see it? Why can't I just cover my eyes?
一定要眼见为实吗？难道我就不能遮住我的眼睛？
In the half light, soft wind on my skin
半明半暗里，轻柔的风吹在我的皮肤上
Pink clouds massing on the cliffs
粉红色的云朵聚集在悬崖上
Thinking how can I touch this
我想知道如何才能触及
How can I touch this softest
触及那最柔软的
Petal, softest stem, softest leaf, bending, green, in my palm?
花瓣，最柔软的茎，最柔软的叶，弯曲的，绿色的，把他们放进我的掌心
Thinking I should get all this dying off of my mind
我想我应该忘掉这一切
I should really know better than to read the headlines
不去读那些头条报道，我也能明辨事理
Does it matter if I see? No really
一定要眼见为实吗？不是这样吧
Can I not just cover my eyes?
难道我就不能遮住我的眼睛
Oh tell me, why can't I just cover my eyes?
哦告诉我，为何我不能假装我未曾看见
