Tears For Diamonds

He crossed the street he knew so well
他穿過熟悉的街道
Got lost there every day
又一次迷失於此
Cursed his work, cried in shame
咒罵工作艱辛又羞愧地掩面而泣
And was really glad it rained
慶幸的是下雨了
Let's trade our tears for diamonds
讓我們將眼淚兌換成鑽石吧
Trade our tears for diamonds
就把眼淚兌換成鑽石吧

又邁入漫長的新的一天
Stepping in the day was long
遠非止時間流逝的緩慢
Much longer than the time
旁人皆不屑一顧
No one around here gave a damn
亦不會施予分文
Not even just a dime
所以就讓我們將眼淚兌換成鑽石吧

讓我們將眼淚兌換成鑽石吧
So let's trade our tears for diamonds
生活仍在繼續日復一日
Let's trade our tears for diamonds
一成不變
On and on it goes and goes
抱歉他似乎未曾想換個活法
On and on
他窮困潦倒
Sorry, he never seems to cut it
但人們說他應當受人敬仰

他衷心善待妻兒
He's poor as **** and he still deserves
但他們卻離他而去
A statue so they say
讓我們將眼淚兌換成鑽石吧
He took good care of wife and kids
讓我們將眼淚兌換成鑽石吧
But they left him anyway
生活仍在繼續日復一日
Let's trade his tears for diamonds
一成不變
Let's trade his tears for diamonds
抱歉他似乎未曾想換個活法
On and on it goes and goes
不曾想過改變
On and on
我們初心不復喜新厭舊
Sorry, he never seems to cut it
直到再一次感到厭倦
To cut it
我們大可金玉其外

但內心卻敗絮其中
We change the things we used to love
讓我們將眼淚兌換成鑽石吧
Until they make us hate
讓我們將眼淚兌換成鑽石吧
We can dress up on the outside
生活仍在繼續日復一日
But inside there's just no way
一成不變
Let's trade our tears for diamonds
抱歉他似乎未曾想換個活法
Let's trade our tears for diamonds
On and on it goes and goes
On and on
Sorry, he never seems to cut it
