the storm (album version)

Before it took you away
在你離開之前
I tried to think of something I could say
我試著想說些什麼
I watched the shadows in the hall
看著過道的影子
How they danced with the light and the white on the walls
欣賞它們和光與牆漆的舞姿
Your face in these pictures looks like a poem
此時你的容顏美的像首詩
Your eyes lit up like a river stone
雙眼明亮的好似雨花石
Your body so much like a blanket thrown
你的身體像毯子一樣被拋出
On a warm bed at night, like a house in a storm
在深夜的暖床上，好像處在一場風暴中的房子
Then you walk right through the doorway
之後你徑直走出門口
You tell me you're here to stay
告訴我留在這裡
The worst is gone and by God I love
謝天謝地，糟事已去
If you'd been here this way
如果你還在的話
I surprise myself sometimes
有時我會驚詫於自己
The way the days unfold and this road unwinds
這些天的呈現和道路展開的方式
You tell me you see it too
你告訴我你也意識到了
And the miles seem like inches when I think of you
當我想你時距離彷彿從英里縮短到英尺
Its been 25 day since I've been gone
我已經離開了25天了
25 weeks since I've seen my home
已經看著我的家25週了
I spent 25 months chasing this song
花費25個月來精雕細琢這首歌
and all of this time I've been alone
這些日子裡我一直是獨自一人
Then you walk right through the doorway
之後你徑直走出門口
You tell me your here to stay
告訴我留在這裡
The worst is gone and by God I love
謝天謝地，糟事已去
If you'd been here this way
如果你還在的話
And you knew it all along
你一直知道
I wasn't happy all along
我自始至終都不開心
and your body all I wanted
你是我唯一想擁有的
let me to just come home
就讓我回家吧
Then you walk right through the doorway
之後你徑直走出門口
You tell me you're here to stay
告訴我留在這裡
The worst is gone and byGod I love
謝天謝地，糟事已去
If you'd been here this way
如果你還在的話
And I only just learned how to stand like a man
我已經學會瞭如何做一個男人
I've got 25 years of running instead
這花費了我25年
How could I see the ground at my feet
我該如何看待我走過的路
The truth is to me that I was caught in the storm
對我來說我已經被捲進這場風暴
That I wasn't alone
我從來不是一個人
