Simple Song

The Shins - Simple Song

這首歌平淡無常

講述你曾經的過往

我曾將恐懼對你講
Well this is just a simple song
它們果然就此消亡
To say what you've done
你一定非常堅強
I told you about all those fears
感覺就像被陽光曬暖的海洋
And away they did run
當我只有九歲的時候
You sure must be strong
我發誓做過一個夢
When you feel like an ocean being warmed by the sun
球場上你的臉龐

我將一個吻藏在
When I was just nine-years-old
汗衫之下
I swear that I dreamt
不偏不倚我的心房
Your face on a football field
我知道你一個人走的時候事情真的變得很難
And a kiss that I kept
不要覺得你必須做到堅強就像石頭那樣頑抗
Under my vest
可能是我們生命中再無一個地方
Apart from everything, but the heart in my chest
像這個小家一樣

我的生活就似困在懸崖上
I know that things can really get rough when you go it alone
一艘被翻過來的船
Don't go thinking you gotta be tough, and play like a stone
是你引水將這裡註滿
Might be there's nothing else in our lives, so critical
助我揚帆起航
As this little home
親愛的，這是多麼棒的禮物

你會不會向我傾訴
My life in an upturned boat
你的呼吸進入我的肺部
Marooned on a cliff
我們浮起來穿過那裂谷
You brought me a great big flood
我知道你一個人走的時候事情真的變得很難
And you gave me a lift
不要覺得你必須做到堅強就像石頭那樣頑抗
Girl, what a gift
可能是我們生命中再無一個地方
You tell me with your tongue
像這個小家一樣
And your breath was in my lungs
這首歌平淡無常
And we float up over the rift
講述你曾經的過往

我曾將恐懼對你講
I know that things can really get rough when you go it alone
它們果然就此消亡
Don't go thinking you gotta be tough, and play like a stone
你一定非常堅強
Could be there's nothing else in our lives, so critical
當你就像被陽光曬暖的海洋
As this little home
別忘了家就在不遠的前方

黑暗中微微發出亮光
Well is just a simple song
為你傾心我百出洋相
To say what you've done
但終將火花點燃
I told you about all those fears
我竊來寶石系在項鍊
And away they did run
只為你一人戴上
You sure must be strong
我們的愛如此精緻
When you feel like an ocean being warmed by the sun
不需要任何證明

是我從不曾知道的事情
Remember walking a mile to your house
A glow in the dark
I made a fumbling play for your heart
And the act struck a spark
You wore a charm on the chain that I stole
Especial for you
Love's such a delicate thing that we do
With nothing to prove
Which I never knew
