歌词与翻译

[中文]

整个小镇都在谈论你坠入爱河

报纸上说，他是个女孩们梦寐以求的人

像一个君临王国的国王

我只是个小丑，永远不会是他

昨晚，你呼唤我

几乎要了我命

听到你尖叫我的名字

你的笑容依旧致命

我差点就转过身

你追到我面前

你问我过得怎么样，但我该从何说起

告诉你我应该跨越每个州去追你

我将剑放下，任由命运摆布

因为一切都太迟了，太少了

我不需要提醒自己犯过的错误

那些破碎的承诺，隐藏在歌声中的脆弱

想来我们是不同人生的灵魂伴侣

如果你离开他，会不会给我一线希望

我知道你很幸福

但听到你尖叫我的名字，还是让我心碎

如果当初我留下来会怎样，一切都一览无遗

A clear fucking X-ray of if I'd stuck around

我发誓，我差点溺水

你问我过得怎么样，但我又该如何回答

告诉你我应该去追你

我应该成为你的未婚夫

我与命运的斗争失败了

一场关于离开和留下的拔河

我放弃了，我退位了

我还是将剑放下了

我们天堂见

因为一切都太迟了，太少了

低声说出，我永远不会对你说的誓言

Whisper vows, I'll never say to you

因为一切都太迟了，太多了

...

[英语]

The whole town is talking 'bout how you've fallen in love

I read in the papers, he's someone that girls dream about

Some kind of ruler on top of a kingdom

I'm just a jester, I'll never be him

Last night, you called to me

It almost killed me

To hear you scream my name

Your smile still kills the same

I almost turned around

You chased me to the ground

You asked me how I've been, but how do I begin

To tell you I should've chased you 'cross every single state

I lay down my sword for fate

'Cause it's too little way too late

I didn't need the reminder of things I've done wrong

Of promises broken, fragility hidden in song

Guess that we're soulmates in different lifetimes

What if you leave him, throw me a lifeline

I know that you're happy

But it just killed me

To hear you scream my name

A clear fucking X-ray of if I'd stuck around

I swear to God, I almost drowned

You asked me how I've been, but how could I begin

To tell you I should've chased you

I should be who you're engaged to

Lost my fight with fate

A tug-of-war of leave and stay

I give in, I abdicate

I lay my sword down anyway

I'll see you at Heaven's gate

'Cause it's too little, way too late

I'll toast outside your wedding day

Whisper vows, I'll never say to you

'Cause it's too little, all too late
