今日歌曲分享：《Dog Days Are Over》——Florence and the Machine
難熬的日子已過去
Happiness hit her like a train on a track 幸福像行駛中的列車撞上來
Coming towards her, stuck still, no turning back 衝著她的方向 被死死卡住 回不了頭
She hid around corners and she hid under beds 藏在角落 躲進床底
She killed it with kisses and from it she fled 用吻扼殺幸福 逃離幸福
With every bubble she sank with a drink 酒沫吞一口 幸福就消失一點
and washed it away down the kitchen sink 將一切衝下廚房水槽
The dog days are over 三伏天已經結束
The dog days are done 難熬的日子已過去
The horses are coming so you better run 野馬橫衝直撞 你最好趕緊逃
Run fast for your mother run fast for your father 跑向媽媽 跑向你爸爸
Run for your children for your sisters and brothers 跑向你的孩子 跑向你的兄弟姐妹
Leave all your love and your longing behind you 將愛的和擁有的東西都拋諸身後
Can’t carry it with you if you want to survive 如果想活下去 就不能帶著這一切
The dog days are over三伏天已經結束了
The dog days are done 難熬的日子已過去
Can’t you hear the horses 你難道沒聽到馬蹄聲
Cuz here they come 因為他們來了
And I never wanted anything from you 我不想從你身上得到任何東西
Except everything you had 除了你所擁有的一切
and what was left after that too 以及那之外的東西
Happiness hit her like a bullet in the back 幸福像打在背上的子彈
Struck from a great height 從高高的地方
by someone who should know better than that 被一個本該知道不能這樣做的人
The dog days are over 三伏天已經結束了
The dog days are done 難熬的日子已過去
The horses are coming so you better run 野馬衝過來 你最好趕緊逃
Run fast for your mother run fast for your father 跑向媽媽 跑向你爸爸
Run for your children for your sisters and brothers 跑向你的孩子 跑向你的兄弟姐妹
Leave all your love and your longing behind you 將愛的和擁有的東西都拋諸身後
Can’t carry it with you if you want to survive 如果你想活下去 就不能帶著這一切
The dog days are over三伏天已經結束了
The dog days are done 難熬的日子已過去
Can you hear the horses 你聽到馬蹄聲了嗎
Cuz here they come 因為他們來了
The dog days are over三伏天已經結束了
The dog days are done 難熬的日子已過去
Can you hear the horses 你聽到馬蹄聲了嗎
Cuz here they come 因為他們來了
The dog days are over三伏天已經結束了
The dog days are done 難熬的日子已過去
Can you hear the horses 你聽到馬蹄聲了嗎
Cuz here they come 因為他們來了
