《If Work Permits》歌词

[00:00:00] If Work Permits - The Format

[00:00:12]

[00:00:12] So the wind that blows across your room

[00:00:15] 就让微风轻轻拂过你的房间

[00:00:15] Carried cheap perfume onto your dresser

[00:00:22] 带着清新的气味到你的梳妆台前

[00:00:22] It rained for jewelry and for credit cards

[00:00:25] 上面陈列着着珠宝和信用卡

[00:00:25] Two tickets to a film i don't remember

[00:00:32] 还有两张电影票 那些事我已忘却

[00:00:32] One day youll kiss your rabbits nose pick up the phone

[00:00:36] 在那一天 你吻过你养的小兔子鼻尖后 拿起起手机

[00:00:36] To find i've been turned over

[00:00:42] 却发现我已经动过了

[00:00:42] And youll grab that piece of gold

[00:00:44] 你尝试着抓住最后的机会

[00:00:44] Only to find that the smell has taken over

[00:00:48] 却发现一切早已改变

[00:00:48] Now all the things you had they arent the same

[00:00:54] 你所拥有的事物今非昔比

[00:00:54] As what you hold

[00:01:04] 当你试着去掌控情况时

[00:01:04] I'm standing in a room

[00:01:06] 我已经伫立在房间

[00:01:06] Its filled with older folks pleading "baby listen"

[00:01:14] 房间里挤满了亲友 并恳求道 听我们一句吧

[00:01:14] And i scream as loud as anyone

[00:01:17] 我竭尽全力 放声尖叫

[00:01:17] But when asked to make a point i tend to whisper

[00:01:24] 但是他们让我说的时候 我却缄默不言

[00:01:24] Now highways turn to tidal waves

[00:01:27] 笔直的路变成涌动的潮水

[00:01:27] Theyre asking me to export all of your insecurities

[00:01:34] 他们就我对你不信任这一件事专门做了询问

[00:01:34] But that wind that blows across your room

[00:01:37] 但当清风拂过你的窗前时

[00:01:37] Its gonna set the sails and send me back to you

[00:01:49] 我将会乘着风回到你的身旁

[00:01:49] Sometimes when sailors are sailing

[00:01:55] 当水手在无边大海上航行时

[00:01:55] They think twice about where theyre anchoring
