這首歌完美了。

This song was perfection.

“No Choir” - Florence + The Machine

以”快樂”為題寫歌是一件困難的事

因為當我年紀愈大

就愈發現“快樂”是一個特別平淡的主題

And it's hard to write about being happy

'Cause the older I get

I find that happiness is an extremely uneventful subject

這裏將不會有壯大的副歌

不會有唱詩班加入

來唱詠兩個人坐在那裡無所事事

And there would be no grand choirs to sing

No chorus could come in

About two people sitting doing nothing

但我必須承認

我這麼做都只是為了我自己

我猜想你是從某些巨大卻無名的恐懼躲避來到這裡

但是寂寞從不曾離我而去

我一直將它帶在身邊

但在與你相處的愉悅中我能夠將它放下

But I must confess

I did it all for myself

I gathered you here to hide from some vast unnameable fear

But the loneliness never left me

I always took it with me

But I can put it down in the pleasure of your company

這裏將不會有壯大的副歌

不會有唱詩班加入

沒有人會寫出不朽情歌

它將完全被遺忘

And there will be no grand choirs to sing

No chorus will come in

And no ballad will be written

It will be entirely forgotten

如果明天它完全結束了

至少我們曾擁有它一瞬間

哦親愛的，世事似乎是多麼不穩定

但是我們曾經能夠短暫的靜止不動

And if tomorrow it's all over

At least we had it for a moment

Oh, darling, things seem so unstable

But for a moment we were able to be still

這裏將不會有壯大的副歌

不會有唱詩班加入

沒有人會寫出不朽情歌

這將完全被遺忘

And there will be no grand choirs to sing

No chorus will come in

No ballad will be written

This will be entirely forgotten
