【Train - Drive By】

中英歌词:

On the other side of a street I knew
Stood a girl that looked like you
I guess that's deja vu
But I thought this can't be true
Cause you moved to west L.A or New York or Santa Fe
Or where ever to get away from me
在我熟悉的那条街的另一边
站着一个看起来很像你的女孩
那似曾相识
而我却感到难以置信
因为你已经搬去洛杉矶或者是纽约亦或是圣达菲
又或者是任何你能远离我的地方

Oh but that one night
Was more than just right
I didn't leave you cause I was all through
Oh I was overwhelmed and frankly scared as hell
Because I really fell for you
但是那个夜晚
已经再好不过了
我不曾离开你因为我一直都在
我感觉像在地狱般恐慌
因为我是真的爱上了你

Oh I swear to you
I'll be there for you
This is not a drive by
Just a shy guy looking for a 2-ply
Hefty bag to hold my love
我向你发誓
我将一直陪在你身边
这不是开玩笑
只是一个害羞的男孩在寻找一段真爱
那么厚重的包来承受我的爱

When you move me everything is groovy
They don't like it sue me
In the way you do me
Oh I swear to you
I'll be there for you
This is not a drive by
当你离开我一切都变得糟糕
他们不喜欢控告我
以你对待我的方式
我向你发誓
我将一直陪在你身边
这不是开玩笑

On the other side of a downward spiral
My love for you went viral
And I loved you every mile you drove away
But now here you are again
So let's skip the "how you been"
And get down to the "more than friends" at last
在另一边的深巷中
我对你爱得更深
你离我越远我爱你越深
但现在你又再次在我身边
那就让我们直接跳过“你好吗”的寒暄
最后直接告诉你我们不仅仅是朋友

Oh but that one night was still the highlight
I didn't need you until I came to
And I was overwhelmed and frankly scared as hell
Because I really fell for you
但那仍是一个难忘的夜晚
在我来之前我不曾需要你
但我感到像身处地狱般恐惧和害怕
因为我是真的爱上了你

Oh I swear to you
I'll be there for you
This is not a drive by
Just a shy guy looking for a 2-ply
Hefty bag to hold my love
我向你发誓
我将一直陪在你身边
这不是开玩笑
只是一个害羞的男孩在寻找一段真爱
那么厚重的包来承受我的爱

When you move me everything is groovy
They don't like it sue me
In the way you do me
Oh I swear to you
I'll be there for you
This is not a drive by
当你离开我一切都变得糟糕
他们不喜欢控告我
以你对待我的方式
我向你发誓
我将一直陪在你身边
这不是开玩笑

Please believe that when I leave
There's nothing up my sleeve but love for you
And a little time to get my head together too
请相信当我离开的时候
在我的袖子之上除了对你的爱再也没有什么
和一点点让我清醒的时间

On the other side of a street I knew
Stood a girl that looked like you
I guess that's deja vu
But I thought this can't be true
Cause
在我熟悉的那条街的另一边
站着一个看起来很像你的女孩
那似曾相识
而我却感到难以置信
因为

Oh I swear to you
I'll be there for you
This is not a drive by
Just a shy guy looking for a 2-ply
Hefty bag to hold my love
我向你发誓
我将一直陪在你身边
这不是开玩笑
只是一个害羞的男孩在寻找一段真爱
那么厚重的包来承受我的爱

When you move me everything is groovy
They don't like it sue me
In the way you do me
Oh I swear to you
I'll be there for you
This is not a drive by
当你离开我一切都变得糟糕
他们不喜欢控告我
以你对待我的方式
我向你发誓
我将一直陪在你身边
这不是开玩笑
