英语歌曲欣赏:Iris(天使之城插曲)

Iris   by  Goo Goo Dolls

And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
And sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming

《天使之城》剧照

Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

  中文歌词  

我愿意放弃永生只为触摸你
冥冥之中坚信你能感受到我的存在
我从未如你那般靠近天堂
我也不想现在就回去

这一刻的美好让我留恋

《天使之城》剧照

你的气息令我着迷
一切迟早都会结束
但至少今夜我不想错过你

我不愿让这世界看到我
因为我不认为他们能理解
即便万物终将归于毁灭
我也只要你知道我是谁

你止不住地流下眼泪
无法掩饰谎言中的真相
当一切都如电影般转瞬即逝
你用鲜血证明你的存在

我不愿让这世界看到我
因为我不认为他们能理解
即便万物终将归于毁灭
我也只要你知道我是谁

我不愿让这世界看到我
因为我不认为他们能理解
即便万物终将归于毁灭
我也只要你知道我是谁
