《Falling Slowly》歌词
i don't know you
我不认识你
but i want you
但却想和你在一起
all the more for that
更进一步的了解你
words fall through me
但却无法言说
and always fool me
总是欺骗我
and i can't react
我无法回应你
and games that never amount
游戏永远
to more than they're meant
只是游戏
will play themselves out
终有一天会完结
take this sinking boat and point it home
乘着这只将要沉的船回家
we've still got time
我们还有时间
raise your hopeful voice
扬起你那充满希望之声
you have a choice
你还有选择
you've made it now
你已经做了决定
falling slowly eyes that know me
慢慢紧闭的双眼
and i can't go back
我再也回不去了
moods that take me and erase me
忧伤吞噬了我
and i'm painted black
我陷入一片黑暗
well, you have suffered enough
你历尽了磨难
and warred with youself
与自己作战
it't time that you won
是时候 你赢得胜利了
take this sinking boat and point it home
乘着这只将要沉的船回家
we've still got time
我们还有时间
raise your hopeful voice you
扬起你那充满希望之声
have a choice
你还有选择
you've made it now
你已经做了决定
falling slowly sing your melody
慢慢唱出你的歌
i'll sing along
我也将和着你的声音
ah,ah ,ah
啊啊啊
call and i'll sing along
呼唤我 我将和着你的声音
