英语歌曲：Christmas When You Were Mine - Taylor Swift

Christmas When You Were Mine - Taylor Swift¹

Please take down the misletoe
请拿下那个圣诞树枝吧
Cause I don't wanna think about that right now
它与现在的我那么不相衬
Cause everything I want is miles away
只因为我心所向在千里之外
In a snow covered little town
那个披着白雪的小镇
My momma's in the kitchen, worrying about me
亲爱的妈妈正在小小的厨房里担心着我
Season's greetings², hope you're well
在这个季节应有对你的问候祝愿一切安好
Well I'm doing alright
我也安好
If you were wondering
如果你还在怀疑
Lately³ I can never tell
我不确定下一秒我是否还可以这样回答
I know this shouldn't be a lonely time
我知道这不是个孤独的时候
But there were Christmases when you were mine
但是每个从前的圣诞节，你都在我身边
I've been doing fine without you, really
我真的已经开始适应没有你的生活
Up until the nights got cold
直到那些寒冷的夜晚
And everybody's here, except you, baby
每个人都在这里，亲爱的，唯独没有你的身影
Seems like everyone's got someone to hold
看上去每个人都有一个属于自己的怀抱
But for me it's just a lonely time
但是对我而言这只是一个孤独的时候
Cause there were Christmases when you were mine
但是每个从前的圣诞节，你都在我身边
Merry Christmas everybody
圣诞节快乐吧，每个人
That'll have to be something I just say this year
这里应该有一些事情我必须在今年说说
I'll bet⁴ you got your mom another sweater
我确信你已经拿到了你妈妈给你的新毛衣
And were your cousins late again?
还有，你的兄弟姐妹又迟到了吗
When you were putting up the lights this year
今夕在你搭起圣诞彩灯时
Did you notice one less pair of hands?
你有注意到在这温和的气氛里少了一双手吗
I know this shouldn't be a lonely time
我知道这不应该是个孤独的时候
But there were Christmases
但是在每个过去的圣诞节
when I didn't wonder how you are tonight
当我不再关心你的夜晚
Cause there were Christmases when you were mine
因为你只在我过往的记忆里
You were mine
才属于我的
