Elizabeth (Album Version)
There’s a distance in your eyes
你的眼眸里嵌着深远的宁静
That’s why a smile is always a surprise
但有时候又会噘嘴然后绽放可爱的笑容
When you call and you talk to me
当你打电话来
I wonder which person you’re going to be
我总好奇今天你又会是哪个性格
She said, all your songs are sad songs
她说,你写的歌全都是伤心的歌
Why do you always have to see the worst of it
为什么你老是只看见最坏的一面呀?
Could you write me just one love song?
你就不能为我写一首关于爱的歌么
Put my name somewhere in the middle of it
把我的名字写在歌里,那多棒啊~
It’s not hard to write Elizabeth
喏,你看,伊~丽~莎~白~
Just close your eyes boy and take your best guess
你只要闭上眼,小伙子,就能想出完美的词句啦
Cause the truth is hard, isn’t it?
难道要你表达一点爱意就那么难么~
She said, I’ll be listening in my favorite white dress
她说,我一定会穿着我最喜欢的白裙子聆听你的歌哒~
All these quite afternoons,
在那些醺醉的午后
She said, I wonder if I’ve given up my love too soon
她又忧郁地说,我在想我是不是太早就决定了我的爱
As her hair fell from her curls
头发从她玩弄的手指中垂下
I said you’re pretty uptight for a Mexican Girl
我说对一个墨西哥女孩来说你太文静啦
She said, all your songs are sad songs
她说,你写的歌全都是伤心的歌
Why do you always have to make me feel like ****?
你为什么老是让我感觉糟糕
Could you write me just one love song?
你就不能为我写一首关于爱的歌么
And put my name somewhere in the middle of it
把我的名字写在歌里,就在歌里
And if you call the song Elizabeth
如果你的歌名字就叫做伊丽莎白
All my friends will know it’s about me
我的朋友们就会知道这是写给我的
Cause the truth is hard, isn’t it?
难道要你表达一点爱意就那么难
Don’t take too long, I just know you’ll come back to me
别花费太久的时间,我知道你会回到我身边的
I said all these songs are love songs
我说这些歌都是关于爱的歌
Just love at times can make you feel like ****
但爱有时候就是会让你感觉很糟糕
So you write a string of words down
当你写下了一串歌词
It’s better if there’s some truth in it
其中带着真诚那会更好
It’s true I love you Elizabeth
真诚就是我爱你,伊丽莎白
I love the way you move in that silly white dress
我喜欢你穿着那傻傻的裙子期待地旋转的时候
Because the truth is hard to admit
但有时候这句话真很难说出口
I’ve never known love
我从来都不是勇敢去说出爱的人
This is just my best guess
只能小心翼翼把这句话缝在歌词里
