tough act

製作人: Joe Rubel
我們再無路可走
We rode it to a dead end
向最好的朋友道別
Saying goodbye to a best friend
是正確做法中糟糕的部分
Is the bad part of the right thing to do

我難以控制
I was hard to handle
而我們也如生日蠟燭般疲憊不堪(*燃盡)
And we burnt out like a birthday candle
牆上的照片都不是真的
The pictures on the mantle aren't true

人人都知道一場分手
Everybody knows that a breakup
在有人可被怨恨時發生更好
Is better when there's someone to hate but
但是你曾是我最喜歡的熬夜方式
You were my favourite way to stay up
直到現在我也會這麼說
And I'd say that still

我清楚原因的
I know the reasons
通過幾次嘗試認清
Took a couple tries to see 'em
但現在一切都過去了
But now everything is through
我想聯繫的還是你
It's you I wanna call though

當我所知道的
When all I've known of
都是那些我該放手的
Is something that I should let go of
我會從根斬斷
I'll cut it at the root
再讓其耗盡直到只剩空洞
And drain it till it's all so hollow
但你難以被超越
But you are one tough act to follow

我變得忙碌
I got busy
你也忘了該如何想念我
And you forgot how to miss me
因為我也不算是你的青梅竹馬
When I 'm not much of who you grew up with

噢你走神了
Oh, you were distracted
而這沉默上演了一出帽子戲法
And the silence made a hat trick
這是份有持續解決方法的長名單
It's a long list with a lasting fix

我知道我們也非完美相配
And I know that we weren't perfect
所以我期望你明天就遇到某人
So I hope you meet someone tomorrow
她會完全符合你的想像
And she's everything you wanted
但我期望我也難以被替代
But I hope I'm one tough act to follow

我清楚原因的
I know the reasons
花了一些時間相信
Took a little time to believe 'em
現在一切都過去了
Now everything is through
我想聯繫的還是你
It's you I wanna call though

但你難以被超越
But you are one tough act to follow
再難有任何優於你
You are one tough act to follow
