I waited tilI I
saw the sun
Don’t know why I didn’t come
I left you by the house of fun
Don’t know why I didn’t come
Don’t know why I didn’t come
When I saw the break of day
I wished that I could fly away
Instead of kneeling in the sand
Catching teardrops in my hand
My heart is drenched in wine
But you’ll be on my mind
Forever
Out across the endless sea
I would die in ecstasy
But I’ll be a bag of bones
Driving down the road alone
My heart is drenched in wine
But you’ll be on my mind
Forever
Something has to make you run
Don’t know why I didn’t come
I feel as empty as a drum
Don’t know why I didn’t come
Don’t know why I didn’t come
I don’t know why I didn’t come

直等到看见第一道曙光
不懂自己为何没有出现
将你留在我俩欢聚之处
不懂自己为何没有出现
不懂自己为何没有出现
当我见到天空破晓
但愿自己能远走高飞
而非跪坐在沙滩上
用双手盛满泪水
我只能借酒浇愁
但你的身影将萦绕在我心中
直到永远
无垠的大海外
我愿在狂喜中死去
但我不过是一具行尸走肉
独自走完人生的旅程
我只能借酒浇愁
但你的身影将萦绕在我心中
直到永远
某些事情让你逃离
不懂自己为何没有出现
我像一面空虚的鼓
不懂自己为何没有出现
不懂自己为何没有出现
我不懂自己为何没有出现
