英语歌曲:Vanessa Carlton - A Thousand Miles

Vanessa Carlton - A Thousand Miles

 

Making my way down town
Walking fast
Faces pass
And I'm home bound¹

Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making a way
Through the crowd

And I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you... tonight

It's always times like these
When I think of you
And I wonder
If you ever think of me

Cause everything's so wrong
And I don't belong
Living in
Your precious² memory

Cause I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by,oh
Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you... tonight

And I, I don't wanna let you know
I, I drown in your memory
I,I don't wanna let this go
I, I've fallen...

And I still need you
And I still miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall into the sky
Do you think time, would pass us by
Cause you kow I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you...

If I could fall into the sky
Do you think time would pass me by
Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you...
If I could just hold you... tonight
 

 

千里迢迢 凡妮莎·卡尔登

循著小路往市中心走去
脚步开始轻盈
街上人来人往
我往家走去

全心全意的往前
只为了找到一条路
一条穿过人群的路

我需要你
我想念你
我现在想如果我能飞在天空
你是否想和我共度这段时光
你可知道我想走过这千里迢迢
只为了见你......在今晚

一切就如往常
当我在想你
我也希望你在想我

这一切都是个错误
然而我并不存在你的美丽记忆里

然而我不想让你知道
我沉醉在你的回忆
我不想让一切流逝
我无法自拔...

我仍然需要你
我仍然想念你
我现在想如果我能飞在天空
你是否想让这段时光与我俩共度
你可知道我想走过这千里迢迢
只为了见你......

如果我能飞在天空
你是否想和我共度这段时光
你可知道我想走过这千里迢迢
如果我能看见你......
如果我能拥抱你......在今晚
