Why does she make sure to be so immature
你一定觉得我很幼稚吧
about these things,
试图改变你
I don’t want you to change around it
但我从未要你改变
And sometimes love will end and all will be forgotten
别沮丧 有时恋情会结束 而你将学着遗忘
Then someday we will laugh about it.
学着一笑置之
And you say, that Its alright
你说你没事
And I know, that it’s a lie
From the black in your eyes
但你眼里的黯淡 告诉我这不是事实
You don’t have to do this on your own,
你不必独自面对一切
Like there’s no one that cares about you
好像没人在乎你一样
You don’t have to act like your alone,
你不必忍受寂寞孤单
Like the walls are closing in around you
好像你身旁筑了座高墙
You don’t have to pretend no one knows,
你不必假装没人看见
Like there’s no one that understands you
好像没人了解你一般
I’m not just some face you used to know,
别只把我当作一个普通的朋友
I know all about you
因为我了解你的一切
And you should know that someone cares about you,
你可知道我有多在乎你
I know all about you
我是多么在乎你
Here I am still holding on you’re finding ways to break the bonds,
我知道你试图抽离这段感情
They’re stronger than you realize
但它比你想的还要牢固
You could say that I’ve not tried,
你说我没尽力维护这段恋情
I’ve let you down,
你说我让你失望了
Left you behind
把你远远抛在一边
But you’re the one who’s saying goodbye
但别忘了 提出分手的人是你
And you say, that Its alright
你说你没事
And I know, that it’s a lie
From the black in your eyes
但你眼里的黯淡 告诉我这不是事实
You don’t have to do this on your own,
你不必独自面对一切
Like there’s no one that cares about you
好像没人在乎你一样
You don’t have to act like your alone,
你不必忍受寂寞孤单
Like the walls are closing in around you
好像你身旁筑了座高墙
You don’t have to pretend no one knows,
你不必假装没人看见
Like there’s no one that understands you
好像没人了解你一般
I’m not just some face you used to know,
别只把我当作一个普通的朋友
I know all about you
因为我了解你的一切
And you should know that someone cares about you,
你可知道我有多在乎你
I know all about you
我是多么在乎你

每个人一定都希望在这世上有那么一个人是了解自己的，能够和自己分享各种快乐与悲伤，但可惜的是，能够真正了解自己，并且那种了解程度又不致于让自己感到不舒服的人少之又少。听到这首歌，我心想，到底有谁有那么大的能耐，对另一个人说I know all about you？
曾读过一篇文章，大意是说，在我们难过无助的时候，只要有一个朋友能陪在身边，跟我们说一声“我懂”，这就足以化解心底一大半的悲伤，但我总觉得不是这样的。
“I know all about you”不只是一味的以单方面的角度去揣测另一个人，更是抹煞了另一个人的独特性。当一个人说“我懂”时，与其说是感到被了解，倒不如说是这个人自以为是的以为他了解我们，并且理所当然的简单化我们的烦恼，理所当然的不把我们的悲伤当作悲伤。每个人都是很不一样的，怎么可能有一个人会完全懂另一个人呢?假如他不完全懂，那么又为何要这么说呢?
或许是我将这首歌想得太严肃了吧!或许那句I know all about you只是想告诉对方，I want to know more about you，这样是不是能化解更多的悲伤呢?
