To a Poet
.
And you said, "Don't give me nothing
你:什么都别再给我了
You don't want to lose"
你:我不想失去
I said, "Darling, I'll give you everything I got
我:亲爱的 我会把我的所有献给你
If I want, I'm to choose"
我:如果我想的话
.
我:你要明白 这由不得你选择
Then I got on a plane and flew
然后我搭上飞机
Far away from you
逃离你
Though unwillingly I left
尽管我不愿意离开
And it was so, so hard to do
尽管世事维艰
.
尽管本该如此
The streets here at home had rapidly filled up
用最白的雪花
With the whitest of snow
填充家里的空洞
And they don't make no excuse for themselves
他们为自己找借口
And there's no need, I know
我知道 这里没有我想要的
.
现在
Now I miss you more than I can take
我有点儿太过想念你了
And I will surely break
可我确信它将破碎
And every morning that I wake
在凌晨醒来 仰面躺在床上
God, it's the same
我叹息 上帝啊这又是重复的一日
There's nothing more to it,
只剩下空洞包裹我
I just get through it
我只能熬过去
Oh, there's nothing more to it
太空洞了啊
I just get through it
我只是咬牙煎熬
.
It always takes me by surprise
它总是措不及防地到来
How dark it gets this time of year
你不知道 我的今年也是这么黑暗
And how apparent it all becomes
显而易见 它将成真
That you're not close, not even near
你离我太远啦
.
一点儿都不近啊
No matter how many times I tell myself
不论我劝告自己多少年
I have to be sincere
我必须保持缄默
I have a hard time standing up
我必须在举步维艰中站起来
And facing those fears
面对 我的惶恐
.
面对 你不再会回来
But Frank put it best when he said
但弗兰克说得对
"You can't plan on the heart"
“无欲则刚”
Those words keep me on my feet
那些话让我振作起来
When I think I might just fall apart
我想 这只不过是崩溃罢了
.
Now I miss you more than I can take
我有点太过思念你了
And I will surely break
可我确信它将破碎
And every morning that I wake
在凌晨醒来 仰面躺在床上
God, it's the same
我叹息 上帝啊这又是重复的一日
But there's nothing more to it,
只剩下空洞包裹我
I just get through it
亲爱的
Oh, there's nothing more to it
这太空洞了啊
I just get through it
我只有咬牙煎熬才能不被摧毁
Oh, there's nothing more to it
多想光芒万丈的你在身旁
I just get through it
引领我 在黑暗中挣扎前行
.
And so I ask where are you now
所以 我问你在哪
Just when I needed you
只是在我痛苦的时候而已
I won't ask again
我不会再问了
Because I know there's nothing we can do
我知道的 我们什么也做不了
Not now, darling, you know it's true
亲爱的
.
现在你知道真相了吗
