Why does she make sure to be so immature
你一定覺得我很幼稚吧
about these things,
試圖改變你
I don’t want you to change around it
但我從未要你改變
And sometimes love will end and all will be forgotten
別沮喪 有時戀情會結束 而你將學著遺忘
Then someday we will laugh about it.
學著一笑置之
And you say, that Its alright
你說你沒事
And I know, that it’s a lie
From the black in your eyes
但你眼裡的黯淡 告訴我這不是事實
You don’t have to do this on your own,
你不必獨自面對一切
Like there’s no one that cares about you
好像沒人在乎你一樣
You don’t have to act like your alone,
你不必忍受寂寞孤單
Like the walls are closing in around you
好像你身旁築了座高牆
You don’t have to pretend no one knows,
你不必假裝沒人看見
Like there’s no one that understands you
好像沒人了解你一般
I’m not just some face you used to know,
別只把我當作一個普通的朋友
I know all about you
因為我了解你的一切
And you should know that someone cares about you,
你可知道我有多在乎你
I know all about you
我是多麼在乎你
Here I am still holding on you’re finding ways to break the bonds,
我知道你試圖抽離這段感情
They’re stronger than you realize
但它比你想的還要牢固
You could say that I’ve not tried,
你說我沒盡力維護這段戀情
I’ve let you down,
你說我讓你失望了
Left you behind
把你遠遠拋在一邊
But you’re the one who’s saying goodbye
但別忘了 提出分手的人是你
And you say, that Its alright
你說你沒事
And I know, that it’s a lie
From the black in your eyes
但你眼裡的黯淡 告訴我這不是事實
You don’t have to do this on your own,
你不必獨自面對一切
Like there’s no one that cares about you
好像沒人在乎你一樣
You don’t have to act like your alone,
你不必忍受寂寞孤單
Like the walls are closing in around you
好像你身旁築了座高牆
You don’t have to pretend no one knows,
你不必假裝沒人看見
Like there’s no one that understands you
好像沒人了解你一般
I’m not just some face you used to know,
別只把我當作一個普通的朋友
I know all about you
因為我了解你的一切
And you should know that someone cares about you,
你可知道我有多在乎你
I know all about you
我是多麼在乎你
每個人一定都希望在這世上有那麼一個人是瞭解自己的,能夠和自己分享各種快樂與悲傷,但可惜的是,能夠真正瞭解自己,並且那種了解程度又不致於讓自己感到不舒服的人少之又少。聽到這首歌,我心想,到底有誰有那麼大的能耐,對另一個人說I know all about you?
曾讀過一篇文章,大意是說,在我們難過無助的時候,只要有一個朋友能陪在身邊,跟我們說一聲「我懂」,這就足以化解心底一大半的悲傷,但我總覺得不是這樣的。
“I know all about you”不只是一味的以單方面的角度去揣測另一個人,更是抹煞了另一個人的獨特性。當一個人說「我懂」時,與其說是感到被了解,倒不如說是這個人自以為是的以為他了解我們,並且理所當然的簡單化我們的煩惱,理所當然的不把我們的悲傷當作悲傷。每個人都是很不一樣的,怎麼可能有一個人會完全懂另一個人呢?假如他不完全懂,那麼又為何要這麼說呢?
或許是我將這首歌想得太嚴肅了吧!或許那句I know all about you只是想告訴對方,I want to know more about you,這樣是不是能化解更多的悲傷呢?
