Annie Lennox - A Whiter Shade of Pale (Remastered)
Classic song
Lyrics
We skipped the light fandango 我倆輕盈的跳著方噹戈舞
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor 優雅地環繞著舞池
I was feeling kinda seasick 我感到有些暈眩
But the crowd called out for more 但群眾不斷喝采
The room was humming harder 整個房間越來越鼓噪
As the ceiling flew away 連天花板都要掀了
When we called out for another drink 當我們另外又點了一些飲料時
The waiter brought a tray 侍者端來了一盤好料
And so it was that later 然而過一會兒之後
As the miller told his tale 當磨坊的主人訴說他的故事(當哈了一根草後)
That her face, as first just ghostly 她的臉如剛見到鬼一般
Turned a whiter shade of pale 呈現一抹慘白的臉色
She said, there's no reason 她說這一切都沒道理
And the truth is plain to see 因為真相是顯而易見
But I wandered through my playing cards 而我耽溺於藥物
And would not let her be 不允許她成為
One of sixteen vestal virgins 十六位純潔的處女之一
Who were leaving for the coast 她們終將消逝於海濱
And although my eyes were open 雖然我的雙眼睜睜
They might have just as we've been closed 它們卻彷彿是閉著
She said, I 'm home on shore leave 她說,我雖在返家的岸邊
Though in truth we were at sea 但事實上我們還身陷大海
So I took her by the looking glass 因此我帶著她來到鏡旁
And forced her to agree 迫使她同意
Saying, you must be the mermaid 我說,妳定是人魚的化身
Who took Neptune for a ride 伴著海神遨遊的人魚
But she smiled at me so sadly 但她對我悲戚的一笑
That my anger straightway died 這使得我的怒氣消失殆盡
If music be the food of love 如果音樂是愛情的食糧
Then laughter is its queen 那麼笑聲就是它的源頭
And likewise if behind is in front 同樣的,如果倒過來說
Then dirt in truth is clean 灰塵其實也是乾淨的
My mouth by then like cardboard 那時我嘴裡的藥丸
Seemed to slip straight through my head 在我腦海裡起了效應
So we crash-dived straightway quickly 於是我們兩個急速下潛
And attack the ocean bed 直達海床的深處
