来自英国歌手Leona Lewis的《爱情谢幕》。
The flowers all faded now along with your letters
They will never see the bright of day
Cause i'll never take them out
There's no turning back
It's for the better
Baby I deserved more than empty words and promises
I believed everything you said
And I give you the best I had
Oh.
花都褪色了，连同你的信件
它们将永远埋藏於黑暗了
因为我不打算再把它们翻出来
不再回头，只因我配拥有更好的
宝贝 我发誓 我不只值得你那些苍白的情话和许诺
我相信你所说过的
而我也已给过你 我最美好的所有
噢~
So take a bow.
Cause you've taken everything else
You played the part like a star you played it so well
Take a bow
Cause the scene is coming to an end
I gave you love. All you gave me was pretend
So now take a bow
来谢幕吧
你已经带走的一切
你像巨星般炫目的表演
谢幕吧
这镜头已演到了终点
我给你的爱却换回你欺骗的表演
还是就此谢幕吧
The future's about to change
Before you know it ,the curtain closes
Take a look around
There's no one in the crowd
I'm throwing away the pain
And you should know that your performance
Made me stronger enough
未来的戏码将要重编
在你意识这之前，幕布已落下
看看四周吧
观众早已散场
我正跨出伤痛的阴影
你也应该知道,你的表演已把我驯化得足够坚强
So take a bow.
Cause you've taken everything else
You played the part like a star you played it so well
Take a bow
Cause the scene is coming to an end
I gave you love. All you gave me was pretend
So now take a bow
就来谢个幕吧
你已经带走的一切
你像巨星般炫目的表演
谢幕吧
这镜头已演到了终点
我给你的爱却换回你欺骗的表演
还是就此谢幕吧
Well it must have been sleight of hand
Cause I still can't understand
Why I could never see
Just what a fool believed
Um
啊，这一定是你施的障眼法
因为我始终不能明白
为何我一直以来不曾看清
还那麼傻傻的相信
But the lies they start to show
Tell me how it feel to know right now that I won't be around
So baby before I put you out
但曾经的谎言正帮我看清
得知我将离你而去时的感觉如何呢，请现在告诉我吧
所以宝贝，在我将你扫地出门之前
Take a bow.
Cause you've taken everything else
You played the part like a star you played so well
Take a bow
Cause the scene is coming to an end
I gave you love. All you give me was pretend
So now take a bow
Cause you've taken everything else
You played the part like a star you played so well
Take a bow
Cause the scene is coming to an end
I gave you love. All you give me was pretend
So now take a bow
谢幕吧
你已经带走的一切
你像巨星般炫目的表演
谢幕吧
这镜头已演到了终点
我给你的爱却换回你欺骗的表演
还是就此谢幕吧
就来谢个幕吧
你已经带走的一切
你像巨星般炫目的表演
谢幕吧
这镜头已演到了终点
我给你的爱却换回你欺骗的表演
还是就此谢幕吧
Take a bow....
