My best friend had a little situation
At the end of our senior year
And like a shot, she and Mitchell got married that summer
我最好的朋友在學期末出了點狀況
好像在賭一樣，
她和 Mitchell 進了結婚禮堂
Carolann getting bigger every minute
Thinking, "What am I doing here?"
While Mitchell's out every night
Being a heavy-metal drummer
Carolann 的肚子一秒比一秒膨脹
一邊想著「我到底在幹嘛」
Mitchell 這個重金屬鼓手
則是每晚都在外面閒晃
With a crucifix on the door
Mitchell got a job at the record store in the mall
他們在可愛的街上有個可愛的家
家門上還掛了個十字架
Mitchell 找的新工作在大賣場的唱片行
Just the typical facts of a typical life
in a town on the Eastern Shore
I thought about what I wanted, it wasn't like that at all
Made Carolann a cute baby sweater
Thinking "I can do better than that"
典型人生的典型事項
和西岸的小鎮看來般配相當
我想著我想要的
卻一點也不一樣
In a year or so, I moved to the city
Thinking "What have I got to lose?"
Got a room, got a cat and got twenty pounds thinner
一年後，我搬進了城市
想著我有甚麼好怕的
租了房，買了車，瘦了二十幾磅
Met a guy in a class I was taking
With some very well placed tattoos
He wouldn't leave me alone 'less
I went with him to dinner
在課堂上遇到了這個男生
刺青的位置都恰恰好很棒
若不跟他吃頓晚餐
我就被糾纏不放
And I guess he was cute
And I guess he was sweet
And I guess he was good in bed
I gave up my life for a better part of a year
對啦他是滿可愛
對啦他是很貼心
對啦床上也很滿意
為了交往我也付出了一整年
So I'm starting to think that this maybe might work
And the second it entered my head
He needed to take some time off
Focus on his "career"
He blew me off with a heartfelt letter
I thought "I can do better than that"
我當然會開始想
這搞不好會成
但這念頭剛跑進腦中
他就開始「需要空間」
開始「專心在職場」
他用一封真誠的分手信甩了我
我想說 「我可以表現更好吧！」
You don't have to get a haircut
You don't have to change your shoes
You don't have to like Duran duran
Just love me
你不用剪顆好看的頭
你不用換雙瞎趴的鞋
你不用愛上杜蘭杜蘭的音樂
只要愛我就好
You don't have to put the seat down
You don't have to watch the news
You dont' have to learn to tango
You don't have to eat prosciutto
You don't have to change a thing
Just stay with me
你不用把馬桶蓋放下來
你不用關注國家大事
你不用學跳探戈
你不用品嘗高擋火腿
你一點都不用改變
只要陪我就好
I want you and you and nothing but you
Miles and piles of you
Finally, I'll have something worthwhile
To think of each morning
我想要你，只想要你
萬里成堆的你
終於有個人讓我值得朝朝思慕
You and you and nothing but you
No substitution will do
Nothing but fresh, undiluted and pure
Top of the line and totally mine
我想要你，只想要你
無可取代的你
活生生、純粹真實、頂級且全屬於我的你
I don't need any lifetime commitments
I don't need to get hitched tonight
I don't want you to throw up all your walls and defenses
我不需要一生的承諾
我不需要今晚就文定
我不想要你築起防禦的高牆
I don't mean to put on any pressure
But I know when a thing is right
And I spend every day reconfiguring my senses
我無意造成任何壓力
但如果都對了我會知道
我每天都在訓練我的感官
When we get to my house
Take a look at that town
Take a look at how far I've gone
I will never go back
Never look back anymore
當我們抵達我家
好好看向小鎮
看看我到的遠方
我再也不會回去
不再回頭望
And it feels like my life led right to your side
And will keep me there from now on
Think about what you wanted
Think about what could be
Think about how I love you
And say you'll move in with me
感覺我的人生導航到你身旁
從此讓我定了方向
想著你的渴望
想著可能怎樣
想著我多愛你
想著我說出你會搬進我家
Think of what's great about me and you
Think of the bullshit we've both been through
Think of what's past because we can do better
We can do better We can do better than that We can do better than that
想著我和你是多麼棒
想著我們渡過的狗屎時光
想著過去的是因為
我們可以表現更好
我們可以表現更好
我們可以表現比那更好
我們可以表現比那更好
