Away When You Were Here
Dad I know you were sad when you died
爸爸 我知道你离去时的悲伤
And I was young it's the way I kept you in my mind
当时年幼的我记住了你的模样
The mess that was left and my mother cried
留下残缺破败的家庭 妈妈泣不成声
And when she stood up she was nobody's mother
当她站起身 她已不再是妈妈
I'd be fine
我会没事的
But I missed you then
但是我想念你
And I miss you now
现在仍然想念你
Liked you'd missed things I might say
就像你会想念我说的话
You're still lost in clouds but I'm older now
你仍迷失在天堂 我已渐渐老去
I can see through lifting haze
透过升腾的迷雾我能看见
That you were away even when you were here
您陪在我身边 我却无法触及
Sometimes a phrase or a manner that's you
有时候一言一行
Comes through me, it goes in a flash
都是你的影子在我身上显现
It's a frame, it's a blink like life
像框架 像生活的灵光一闪
Oh and how much now should we pay for the past
为了过去我们可以牺牲多少现在啊
Cause you could age with grace if I freed you in my mind
若心内不牵绊记挂您 您便可安然老去
But I loved you then
但是我爱您
And I love you now
现在依然爱您
All the things I wished I'd asked
那些我希望问你的事情
When I'm lost in clouds
待我上了天堂
I remember how I was robbed and I was blessed
我还记得被抢劫却毫发无伤
And you were away even when you were here
是您伴我左右给我护佑
Cause it's not about you, not you, anymore
却已不再和您有关
It's about what I'd do with it all
只和我如何应对有关
And I, I'll never let you let me down
我永远都不会对您失望
This morning I wake to be older than you were
今天早晨醒来 我已比您离去时要老
Flash I'll smell for miles, every footstep would be mine
那些闪回的画面 我深一脚浅一脚去找寻
You'd have lost that weight, you'd have gone so straight
如果还在 您肯定瘦了 身材笔直挺拔
You'd have made my wedding day
如果还在 您肯定能出席我的婚礼
You'd have saved my youth from that point of truth
如果还在 您肯定拯救了我的青年时期
You'd have kept those wolves at bay
如果还在 您肯定不会让狼近我一分一毫
But you were away, you were away even when you were here
您一直伴我左右 我却无法触及
