The Shins - Simple Song 妳的小曲

不敢說有多了解這首歌，可是好幾句歌詞都好可愛，而且曲風也蠻特別的

聽膩pop song的話就來嚐鮮，偶而換換不一樣風格的作品吧

也是多虧 #HIMYM 才會認識、喜歡上這首(不過我還真不知道是哪段的配樂:P

Well this is just a simple song

這是一首簡單的歌

To say what you done

歌頌妳的善良事蹟

I told you about all those fears

我曾向妳傾訴我的恐懼

And away they did run

妳卻沒有像他們一樣離開

You sure must be strong

相信妳必定無比堅強

And you feel like an ocean being warmed by the sun

妳就像那閃閃發亮的溫暖海水

When I was just nine years old

還記得九歲那年

I swear that I dreamt

我做了場夢

Your face on a football field

在那足球場上

And a kiss that I kept

難忘的一吻

Under my vest

背心底下

Apart from everything

隔絕世間萬物

but the heart in my chest

只剩下我悸動不已的心

I know that things can really get rough when you go it alone

我能理解，當妳無依無靠，凡事困難重重

Don’t go thinking you gotta be tough, to play like a stone

別以為自己能像石頭般堅硬

Could be there’s nothing else in our lives so critical

沒什麼比人生更艱難的了

As this little home

就如同維持這個小小的家

My life in an upturned boat

我的人生就像艘翻來覆去的小船

marooned on a cliff

在懸崖邊孤立無援

You brought me a great big flood

而妳是那大洪水

And you gave me a lift

給我足夠的力量

To care, what a gift

妳的出現還真是個奇蹟

You tell me with your tongue

妳用吻說明了一切

And your breath was in my lungs

妳的呼吸餘存在我的肺裡

And you float over the rift

順水漂走的妳

I know that things can really get rough when you go it alone

我深深明白孤獨無援的滋味

Don’t go thinking you gotta be tough, to play like a stone

別只想著堅強硬碰硬

Could be there’s nothing else in our lives so critical

沒有什麼比這世界更殘酷的了

As this little home

就如這片家園啊

Well this will be a simple song to say what you’ve done

這是一首關於妳的小曲

I told you about all those fears and away they did run

我曾向人們傾訴我的難處，而他們都離開了

You sure must be strong

相信妳一定很堅強

And you feel like an ocean being warmed by the sun

卻又如同太陽下的海水般溫暖

Remember walking a mile to your house, a glow in the dark

記得前往妳家的路上，黑暗中有道光芒

I made a fumbling play for your heart and the act struck a spark

我的小小心機竟然成功激起妳內心的火花

You wore a charm in a chain that I stole especially for you

妳驕傲地帶著我特別為妳準備的魅力之鍊

Love’s such a delicate thing that we do, with nothing to prove

無須證明，愛是世上如此微妙的事

Which I never knew

我怎麼都沒發現呢

其實這首歌是獻給我自己的

有時候都忘了是被這世界逼堅著強還是自願獨自忍受，但是人生不需要總是那麼累(至少人們是這麼說的

有時一直尋尋覓覓著什麼...或許最後沒有找到，最後得到了不一樣而更好的也說不定，誰說只有一條路可以選？
