I was still there in the shadows of a place we used to go
Drinking cocktail after cocktail
Wondering if you'd show
以往我们常去的地方，我独坐在阴暗角落
鸡尾酒一杯接着一杯
盼着你出现
My head started spinning
My mouth was feeling dry
Lost inside the music
I was trying not to cry
我开始感到头晕目眩
唇舌也觉得干涩无味
在音乐中我怆然若失
强忍夺眶而出的眼泪
If they call it heartache
If they call it heartache
Why is the rest of my body aching
Why is the rest of my body shaking
Please Mr DJ, won't you turn the music down ?
Why can't you understand?
I'm too hurt to dance tonight
如果这是所谓的心碎
如果这是所谓的心痛
为何我全身都在痛
为何我浑身颤抖不已
DJ先生请降低音量
为何你不能理解
今晚我心太碎无法起舞
I was sad there looking solemn
He said I stood out from the crowd
He offered me a friendly face
To wipe away my frown
我独自枯坐默默无语
他恭维说我鹤立鸡群
向我展示他友好笑脸
想抹去我的愁眉苦脸
But I won't talk to strangers
Their words are all the same
So I drowned inside this drinking glass
To take away the pain
但我不理陌生人搭讪
甜言蜜语都如出一辙
所以我沉溺于杯中物
希望痛苦能烟消云散
If they call it heartache
If they call it heartache
Why is the rest of my body aching
Why is the rest of my body shaking
Please Mr DJ won't you turn the music down
Why can't you understand
I'm too hurt to dance tonight
如果这是所谓的心痛
如果这是所谓的心碎
为何我浑身痛楚万分
为何我浑身颤抖不已
DJ先生请降低音量
为何你不能理解领会
今晚心伤无法起舞
O, please Mr DJ won't you turn the music down
Why can't you understand
I'm too hurt to dance tonight
DJ先生请降低音量
为何你不能理解领会
今晚我受伤无法跳舞
