The Cranberries - Linger：歌詞翻譯

The Cranberries於1993年的歌曲，
這首歌最初是在1990年時發布的，
但唱片公司還是決定將這首歌延到1993年發行，
原因是91年跟92年都有其他歌曲問世，
或許想留著當壓箱寶或是救火歌曲也不一定。

但這首歌主要是她與初戀分手心碎的故事，
歌詞在進樂團前就寫了，
所以93年發布時，引起了小小的騷動，
什麼時候的男朋友，又甚麼時候分手？！
一經解釋所有的騷動全都平息了。

隨著女唱Dolores O'Riordan的離世，
這首歌成為世人回味初戀酸甜苦辣的回憶。

[Verse 1]

If you, if you could return
如果你打算回頭

Don't let it burn
就不要焚毀了

Don't let it fade
也不要抹去了

I'm sure I might be rude

我知道自己相當粗魯不講理

But it's just your attitude

但這都是你害的

It's tearing me apart

撕裂我的心

It's ruining everything

讓我毀天滅地

And I swore, I swore I would be true

過去我發誓會實踐諾言

And honey, so did you

那親愛的，你會嗎？

So why were you holding her hand?

那為何你還牽著她的手呢？

Is that the way we stand?
這難道是我們各自的立場嗎？

Were you lying all the time?
難道你一直都在演戲？

Was it just a game to you?

我們之間對你而言是兒戲嗎？

[Chorus]

But I'm in so deep

但我陷的好深啊

You know I'm such a fool for you

你很清楚我像是被你下咒的傀儡

You've got me wrapped around your finger

你將我玩弄於你的股掌之間

Do you have to let it linger?

你為何讓一切糾纏不清呢？

Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?

你就一定要這樣糾纏不清嗎？

[Verse 2]

Oh, I thought the world of you

哦~我本以為你就是全世界了

I thought nothing could go wrong

我本以為一切都不會出錯的

But I was wrong, I was wrong

但我錯了

If you, if you could get by

Trying not to lie

如果你能盡量不騙我

Things wouldn't be so confused

情況就不會如此混亂

And I wouldn't feel so used

我也不會覺得理所當然

But you always really knew

但你心知肚明

I just want to be with you

我只想跟你再一起啊

[Chorus]

And I'm in so deep

但我陷的好深啊

You know I'm such a fool for you

你很清楚我像是被你下咒的傀儡

You've got me wrapped around your finger

你將我玩弄於你的股掌之間

Do you have to let it linger?

你為何讓一切糾纏不清呢？

Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?

你就一定要這樣糾纏不清嗎？

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

And I'm in so deep

我陷得如此深

You know I'm such a fool for you

你很清楚我面對你時像的呆瓜

You've got me wrapped around your finger

我如同你掌中的戲偶

Do you have to let it linger?

你就一定要讓一切糾纏不清嗎？

Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?

你就一定要這樣糾纏不清嗎？

You know I'm such a fool for you

你很清楚我面對你時像的呆瓜

You've got me wrapped around your finger

你將我玩弄於你的股掌之間

Do you have to let it linger?

你為何讓一切糾纏不清呢？

Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?

你就一定要這樣糾纏不清嗎？
