Shadow Of The Sun – English Lyrics

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

And I'll be waiting in the shadow of the sun.

Và tôi vẫn sẽ chờ đợi dưới ánh hoàng hôn

Seizing time where no one has been before

Nắm lấy khoảnh khắc chỉ hai ta

Close the curtains what are you waiting for?

Kéo rèm cửa lại, người còn chần chờ gì?

And I'll be keeping secrets till I'm in the ground.

Và tôi sẽ giữ bí mật đến cuối đời này

Changing colors makes you waste away,

Thay đổi sắc thái khiến người trông tiêu tụy

Just paint your eyes with a vivid mind.

Chỉ cần tô điểm đôi mắt với ánh nhìn đa sắc

Now you see what's behind the lights,

Giờ người đã nhìn thấy phía sau ánh đèn

And I'll be waiting in the shadow of the sun.

Và tôi vẫn sẽ chờ đợi dưới ánh hoàng hôn

Finding treasures that‘s been on demise,

Tìm kiếm kho báu trong đống tro tàn

Building mountains in disguise,

Dựng lên những ngọn núi bằng sự giả dối

And I'll be keeping secrets till I'm in the ground.

Và tôi sẽ giữ bí mật đến cuối đời này

...

I’m in the shadow of the shadow of the sun,

Dưới bóng tối của ánh hoàng hôn dần tàn

Where I belong there's something coming on.

Nơi tôi thuộc về, điều gì đó sẽ đến

I’m in the shadow of the shadow of the sun,

Dưới bóng tối của ánh hoàng hôn dần tàn

oh and I need you.

Và tôi cần người

...

I’m in the shadow of the shadow of the sun,

Dưới bóng tối của ánh hoàng hôn dần tàn

where I belong, there's something coming on.

Nơi tôi thuộc về, điều gì đó sẽ đến

No more waiting, times are changing,

Thôi chờ đợi, giờ đã khác rồi

And there's something coming on.

Và điều gì đó sẽ đến

And I'll be waiting in the shadow of the sun.

Và tôi vẫn sẽ chờ đợi dưới ánh hoàng hôn
