- The Lumineers Cleopatra 歌詞
- The Lumineers
- I was Cleopatra, I was young and an actress
我是克里奧佩特拉，年輕氣盛，處世精明
When you knelt by my mattress, and asked for my hand
當你跪倒於我的塌前，乞求輕觸我的玉手
But I was sad you asked it, as I laid in a black dress
但我深感遺憾，因我早已將其藏入我黑裙深處
With my father in a casket, I had no plans
看著我棺內的父親，我無計可施
And I left the footprints, the mud stained on the carpet
只能無奈離去，塵埃隨腳步沾染了身後的地毯
And it hardened like my heart did when you left town
在你遠離之時，我的心也隨之變得堅硬無比
But I must admit it, that I would marry you in an instant
但我無可否認，將來的某天，你我將會結為一體
Damn your wife, Id be your mistress just to have you around
去你的老婆！我將會成為你承歡膝下的情婦
But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
但一切都太遲了！都太遲了！遲到錯過了我一生的摯愛
And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die Ill be on time
當我孤獨逝去，付諸流水，我將不會像錯過你般錯過我的死亡
While the church discouraged, any lust that burned within me
那時，教堂氤氳著悲痛，所有的慾望將隨我灰飛煙滅
Yes my flesh, it was my currency, but I held true
對，那是我的肉體，曾經的寄存，但我擁有靈魂
So I drive a taxi, and the traffic distracts me
所以我開著的士，惱人的交通阻撓著我
From the strangers in my backseat, they remind me of you
看啊！我後座陌生的乘客，他們讓我想起了你
But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
但一切都太遲了！都太遲了！遲到錯過了我一生的摯愛
And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die Ill be on time
當我孤獨逝去，付諸流水，我將不會像錯過你般錯過我的死亡
And the only gifts from my Lord were a birth and a divorce
我信仰的神明給予我的禮物只有誕生與無盡的分離
But Ive read this script and the costume fits, so Ill play my part
但我已熟知這個劇本，我的戲服華美適宜，那麼，我就好好地出演這人生大劇吧
I was Cleopatra, I was taller than the rafters
我是克里奧佩特拉，心比天高
But thats all in the past now, gone with the wind
但這一切已定格為過去，隨風飄散
Now a nurse in white shoes leads me back to my guestroom
如今一名腳踏白鞋的護士引領我回到我的客房
Its a bed and a bathroom
只有一張床，一間盥洗間
and a place for the end
和一方結束生命盡頭的空間
I wont be late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
我永不會錯過這場死亡，永遠不會，永遠不會錯過我一生的摯愛
And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die Ill be on time
當我孤獨逝去，付諸流水，闔上雙眼，靈魂飄散
