lovers again的八卦，PTT和Yahoo名人娛樂都在討論

10 ข้อ ถนอมความรัก
---
1. เป็นเพื่อนที่รักกัน:
หากลองสังเกตดู เราผิดใจกับเพื่อนน้อยกว่าคนรัก แถมยังคืนดีง่ายกว่า นั่นเป็นเพราะว่าเรามักคาดหวังกับคนรักมากกว่าเพื่อน กระนั้น-ความสวยงามของคนรักมีอยู่ว่ายิ่งนานวันไป ความหวานจะค่อยๆ จางลงกลายเป็นความผูกพัน เหมือนเพื่อนสนิทที่ "รู้กัน" นั่นคือข้อดี เพราะเมื่อเป็นเพื่อนกันแล้วเราจะคาดหวังน้อยลง หายโกรธง่ายขึ้น แต่เพื่อนคนนี้สำคัญกว่าคนอื่น เพราะเขาคือ "เพื่อนชีวิต"

1. Be friends who love each other:
If you notice, we are less wrong with friends, love, and it's easier to return. That's because we always expect more than friends. - the beauty of lovers are that the longer the more days, sweetness will slowly fade into bonding like Best friends who " know " is the good thing because when we are friends, we will expect less. It's easier to get angry. But this friend is more important than others because they are " life friend "

...

2. Love each other, not to compete with each other. Do good:
Some people like to note that between themselves and love "do good things" but in the area of love is not the race track. Relationships are available and swap around. When we often see their goodness. See the goodness of the goodness. The other one may be me. I can overlook the good things that they do because in that moment we are blind from anger.

...

3. sorry and thank you:
Two simple words, but often fade away when we are in a relationship for a long time. Apology seems to fall out of the mouth. Sometimes I know that you are wrong for lovers. There is no dignity. Sorry will help heal the wound instead of letting go of chronic wound. It's difficult to heal. Thank you is another love. It shows that we are important and good things that they give. These two magic spells often have a smooth relationship.

...

4. Let the irritability go away with the night:
A good relationship is to find a way to get back, not to let one side. Many elders always teach that no matter what happens, no matter who is wrong or right. When both fall asleep. One morning should fade away and find a way. Good night. Start a new story with sunrise.

...

5. Be a power to each other:
We feel good when we are near, always a " dream support " listen to anyone. Don't rush to the dream, but encourage us to think " for recharge each other, not weaken each other. When we are close, we are close, there is powerful. We will want to tell him stories.

...

6. Be a sponge to suffer:
Apart from recharging positive, good lovers often absorb negative power from the other's mind. Listening without judgement. Open the space for the other to speak all. Finally he may show fragile or Your own mistakes should be the safest area in the world. Even if the whole world doesn't understand, there is one person who is ready to understand and listen.

...

Lol laugh at small frustrating:
People are often irritated with repeated habits that often annoy. Sometimes it's very small things. Some couples are frustrated that the other people don't close the lid from honey. Sometimes it's a big. If it's possible, try to laugh at these small things and think about it. There is no difference in his corner. We may be born to close the toothpaste cover for him. He was born to keep our favorite mug that we have to be together like to be together like this. But if you can think like this. Don't have to be upset with small things.

...

8. sit in time machine:
Let's go back to talk about when we just know each other. Open old photos, play, pick up the same gift to dusting the house. Pick up the book that we used to read again. These conversations help the relationship not get old by time. In fact, we are. We have good memories together. Let's think back.

...

9. Be part of each other's dreams:
Even if we are not in with our lovers. Whether it's running, listening to music, taking photos, cooking, snorkeling, cuddle, etc. We can join what our lovers are too. It's a lot of time together. In new activities, of course he is part of our crazy activities too.

...

10. Don't expect happiness:
There is a life of love with the angle. This is part of life lessons that will give us the hope, no freedom. Practice our mind to know how to know how to forgive, have mercy, reduce ego to admit that no one is ours and we rely on. Not everything. If you can look at love with glasses like this, we can live with some unbeautiful moments of love. This is the opportunity to practice the mind. Learn suffering from the most, which may be the most painful or the most angry. But this is The best lesson like this. Bad times will be one of life. If both of the smooth mind, they can go through the relationship without traumatized. When suffering passes, happiness will come back. Walking around like this as usual

...

All of these are not easy, and it is not " technique " if it is " practice " that people in love, because the relationship is not different from anything else in the world. There are beautiful and the cuddle ugly. Knowing each other well means seeing around the side.

Love always comes with responsibility and mental duty. Love is always caused by two people. It may start with one person. But when there is no solution. That means both of them can't pass the exam. It's not passed. It's not wrong. What is everyone on the path of learning to love, which couples are always through their mind purifying together.

In some dimensions, being together may not be happier than being alone, but in some dimensions, being together makes you feel more meaning. The meaning is because we are not alone.

Not every love is worth keeping, but for love worth keeping and neglected is a shame.

On the day that we feel "love each other" is not the last day if it's just the first day of the beginning to learn to love that person on the day he is not cute either. He has to learn to love us on the day

I have passed this story again and again. Then I said "love each other" but even then we didn't care about this word.

Because it's a single flesh with two people's lives.Translated

รักรื่น-เลิกรา เป็นธรรมดาของความรัก เราอาจมองความรักเป็นสิ่งสวยงาม แต่ความรักมีเส้นทางที่ซับซ้อน สับสน และมีความหมายที่มากไปกว่าแค่เพียง 'สวยงาม' เสมอ

2
เมื่อรักใครสักคน สิ่งที่เราต้องการจากคนนั้นคือการยอมรับในตัวเรา และเมื่อรักกัน สิ่งที่ทั้งคู่ต้องการก็คือการยอมรับในกันและกัน เมื่อใดที่ใครคนหนึ่งไม่ยอมรับ ย่อมมีโอกาสที่รักนั้นจะจืดจางและเหือดแห้งลง

The cuddle th school - break up is normal of love. We may look at love as beautiful, but love has a complicated, confusing and meaningful path that is always more than just 'beautiful'

2
When we love someone, all we want from that person is to accept us. and when we love each other, all they want is to accept each other. When someone doesn't accept it, there is a chance that love will fade and dry.

3
Love during sweet and fresh is not difficult to prove. It is love that passes time. Love that doesn't flourish is the love that waits for the day. Love can flourish. Need to take care of each other. watering the earth for the tree to grow. Love grows. Love flowering New again and over again

4
Aristotle says dedication to the benefit of love is the heart of love. If you don't do this, then the relationship may not be love.

5
This dedication is not only " giving something " but also means " surrender to something " or " giving up their own happiness " such as some people think that when someone loves, without freedom when they are single, this is one of proof that I am. Can I "dedicate yourself" for a lover?

6
Aristotle as well who says friendship and love will make us see the other as our 'second identity'. When we feel like this, doing good things for him is like doing good for himself.

7
The more I dedicate myself to someone, the more I feel part of him. This one may miss the mother who gave her love.

8
" doing for the benefit of the other " is not equal to " making the other happy " so there may be interrupted lovers because it is beneficial in the long term. No need to spoil all the time, but always wish. This is love.

9
Love is the best wishes to make a lover happy, but love itself is not always happiness.

10
It is possible that in some time, having love is suffering, but we can develop suffering between us into happiness if love can change certain qualities that used to create suffering into positive such as flirty, selfishness, nagging, etc.

11
Love can change someone and love can't change someone

12
Time changes some people but time doesn't change some people

13
Loving someone who is not qualified to create happiness for us (or without the potential to change negative qualities into positive) is a waste.

14
Because love from us (no matter how much) does not change anyone to be ' good '. He needs to have that qualification in himself or there must be an effort to change himself into a ' POSITIVE ' love.

15
The love that we give to that person does not guarantee that you can change our lover alone or be our good person or bring a happy relationship.

16
The love we give to someone is not holy to conquer every obstacle.

17
Expecting that we love someone with all our heart. Do everything and they will do that to us. It's what we think about. If that person is not qualified as we expect.

18
A lot of love is broken because we expect from the cuddle people to love us as much as we dedicated. Love is not a mark equation = in the middle of two people. If it is to adapt to the other to arrange ' balance ' which doesn't mean 'equal'

19
Life is not according to the sentence that says, " only you and your love can make me happy nay, our happiness is not in someone's hand.

20
It's me who should adjust our heart, fill the qualifications of ' open the opportunity to give happiness ' for ourselves. That's how we have to open for happiness from other things in life as well. It's not value it less than love. When we open, we open, we will find that we Life is fine besides love

21
When so, we expect less " perfect love " or " perfect lover that could make us more merciful, forgiving and patient with the dislikes of lovers.

22
He is not a factor for us to suffer with life, but still the factor that makes us happy.

23
The reason we should forgive each other is because we are not perfect. When we need forgiveness from him some time.

24
Whether it ends up in relationship or break up, the important thing is that we have to maintain 'happy' without being given by lovers. This is the most important feature.

25
Love is uncertain, not beautiful, devotion to someone is the meaning of love. While withdrawal from the influence that person has on happiness - our suffering is important of living.

26
Give love to someone we love. If it hurts, see happiness from other than love without seeing that love is the only path that will lead to happiness.

27
Often, we separate from lovers to open our eyes and see happiness from other things or others in life.

28
Often, when we separate from lovers to know love. The important thing is to love our own life. Life - that is not perfect, but mixed with many flavors that make us learn to grow strong.

29
When we can love our own life even if it's incomplete, we can love others even if they are incomplete too.

30
That's the truth of life. That's the truth of love, it's not perfect. But in imperfections, there are many good things and beautiful things. Forgive the sky days. Remember the sunny days. Look at the flowers that have bloomed and will bloom again.

Love is not beautiful, but every love has beautiful things in it.

Only we don't expect it, only one sided beauty.

Yes, we may be disappointed with love, but we don't have to be disappointed with life.

I like ceramics cups. It's my favorite in my life. Even if I buy little stuff, but when I go anywhere, I always shake and find beautiful ceramics cups. I see the one that I like, I can't resist.

Some of the beautiful coating. At First, I will keep it. I'm afraid that it's broken. If it's like that, it's a pity. Some of them may be broken.

But another person who persuaded me to pick up those bowls for a bowl. It's a bowl, not a cup. It takes it's full potential. Finally, bowl, bowls, bowl, bowl, vase. Circulation circulation

Which gives a good feeling. The more I use what I love. Every time I pick it up, I'm happy.

...

2
Recently, someone near me confessed to me that she just broke a cup. She was broken. She also said that if you know which one it is, the more pity. But don't know.

I walked to open the cabinet and immediately knew that the "missing" from the cabinet was one of my beloved leaves. Dark Cup, silver metallic coated and silver spots spread like stars in the evening. ITS ORIGINAL IN KYOTO

Sure. Heart is broken.

Like everyone who lost their favorite

I took many deep breaths. Not long ago. The anger was gone. I have some nervousness left. But the pity is still flowing. I think I should vent it out.

Complained. When it was a few sentences, I warned you to take care of the next cup. Don't let me break again. But someone near me, "I didn't mean to break, I love it too I replied," be careful, but it's okay. It's broken. Don't let me break again "

She replied to me, " there will definitely be more broken, but it's like this. When I use it, it has to be broken. Otherwise I won't use it

She said this because two weeks ago she just broke a beautiful ceramics vase for sure... unintentionally

...

3
I come to review and think about the word "take care"

Consider whether she takes good care of the stuff or not. I found that if it's not counting the two pieces that just broke, she takes care of all things in the house, clean, clean, tidy and makes the house the way she is.

She has been taking care of kittens, clothes, cleanliness, parents, including my feelings processed. Overall she is one great caretaker.

I believe what she says when we are together, there will be "something" because we are working on it. But if there is something that someone broke, then we will be wrong. We will die like that. It may not be a good relationship.

When something is broken, we often forget how many other days we took care of other things.

I think relationships are being together to take care of something for each other and accidentally break one another's love, broken or broken sometimes.

Yes, I accidentally... didn't mean it.

Love each other. No one intends to destroy what another person loves or value.

Not only just nice dressers while together we break something and always take care of something for each other

...

4
If you think about it, when you break your love or break your own hand, no matter how much you want to hit your head, we always forgive ourselves quickly because we know that we missed it with others (even lovers). It's harder to forgive because We always blame others more powerful than blaming ourselves.

I think this is what relationships teach us. Two togetherness is to accept and forgive. When someone accidentally broke something we love, we may accidentally do something he loves and cherish. No difference

Love teaches us how to forgive.

Take turns to forgive.

Some people say that a relationship is difficult. I think that relationships will never have no cracks. The longer it goes through, the more fractured marks by time.

But relationships are not broken dressers and still live. Traces make relationships look more realistic (not dreaming like the beginning). The more active, the more active, the more it shows understanding, accept and forgive. This is a little bit.

For a relationship that goes through forgiveness, the stronger the relationship.

Those who can be in love must know how to forgive.

And when forgive, our hearts begin to know love.

The one we love is not the one who doesn't break anything in our lives, but the one we forgive when he accidentally does it. Because in many angles, he is worthy enough to forgive. While he is willing to forgive us when he accidentally. Doing something he broke

Love is taking turns, breaking and taking turns to take care of it.

True love full of beautiful cracks

That's not a dream love. If it's love that lives.Translated

在那一天來臨前
我願意一直在這裡等待

來自靈魂的message，流竄著每一個音符
傳遞著
2017林俊傑 JJ Lin 以「真實」為驅動的赤裸撼動

林俊傑 2017 全新專輯「偉大的渺小」
林俊傑詞曲全創作 唯一英文歌曲
Until The Day

 *A JJ Lin Composition (music & lyrics)* *The only English track*
*"Until The Day"*

_No longer naive_
_We grew amidst pain_
 
_No longer ourselves_
_And finding our way again_

_We reconcile with ourselves_
_When we let our hearts take lead_
 
_Fearless_

[With my music and soul, I bare myself] - JJ Lin

JJ conveys through music his reflection of life and relationships in this cosmic yet intimate track - "Until The Day"


「這是一張不管作或唱，都是在掏空自己的作品…」
----- JJ Lin

離開了天真
在受傷裡長大

離開了自己
再被自己找到

當我們傾聽內心
即可重聚

不懼

--------
林俊傑 2017 全新專輯「偉大的渺小」中的每一首歌，彷彿都是來自靈魂的深刻訊息，每一個音符都撼動著心靈，讓人無可自拔地沈溺其中，無盡地探索著這浩瀚的音樂宇宙。

兩年的時間，我們仍在螢光幕上，
看著他活躍地穿梭著，也再度獲得金曲獎男歌手的肯定。
然而，關上門，之於創作，他會往哪裡去？
所有人，眾所期待。

一直以來，他是個目標導向，不顧一切往前衝的男孩。

這些日子，他低下頭，擁抱著周遭生活發生的起起伏伏，認識的，不認識的，他聽著、看著、感受著每一個人在生命裡奮戰過的創傷與勇氣。讓他從心出發，勇敢地將潛藏內心已久的情感，呈現作品，獻給每一個身邊重視的人們，譜成這張獨特的音樂意念，以「真實」為驅動的全新專輯。

本次專輯在音樂上也有一個極具話題性的創舉，專輯首波同名主打「偉大的渺小」與專輯中唯一英文歌曲「Until The Day」同步於全球數位上架，象徵多次獲得金曲獎肯定的亞洲天王林俊傑，在這張專輯中將更進一步用音樂與國際接軌，不僅在亞洲，更在全世界引發話題。

「Until The Day」由林俊傑親自作詞作曲，每個人在生活的世界中面對的痛苦和感受。走過生命中的許多謊言、傷害與痛苦，卻回憶起更多生命中曾經存在過的美好，就像在黑夜中輕撫自己的靈魂，直到一絲黎明曙光來臨、直到那一天到來的溫柔等待。從開始、結束、對未來的期待，愛，可以勝過⼀切。刻劃了對生命、對情感、對世界的呼喊，成就了這一首巨大而磅礴，也細膩地緊貼著靈魂的震撼歌曲。

在製作方面，與從第一張專輯就開始合作的編曲大師吳慶隆老師再度合作，結合JFJ製作團隊，邀請到國際首席愛樂樂團為歌曲融入極具生命節奏的弦樂，聯手創造這首歌的編曲製作。

「Until The Day」作為專輯唯一一首英文歌，企圖是獻給整個世界的深刻作品，製作上精心的音樂配置，在整首歌完成後，有一種與整個世界，整個宇宙相連的靈魂感應，這也是 JJ 在音樂上一直想要傳達的意念。

小小的舉動，會帶來遠大的效應。是 JJ 在心中多年的一個概念，但也因著還不能完美地呈現而一直擱置。這些日子，來自他身旁人生的體悟與深刻情感後，在他的內心漸漸地產生了變化，深刻地以珍貴的情感與瞬間，融入到創作的生命力，屏息著，以「真實」為驅動，記錄著他內心赤裸的撼動 「Until The Day」。

Until The Day
曲：林俊傑　 詞：林俊傑

In the middle of the night
在夜深人靜之時
When our hopes and fears collide
我們的希望和恐懼摩擦碰撞
In the midst of all goodbyes
在不斷的道別之中
Where all human beings lie
人們都交疊著
Against another lie
躺臥在彼此的謊言中
Whisper broken promises
呢喃著破碎的誓言
There we hide
我們隱藏自己
Try to make it seem alright
竭力讓一切看似安好

What goes around again
當一切回到原點
We'd be running from the pain
我們會從痛苦中逃離
Finding shelter in the rain
在大雨中尋找避難之所
Lovers straying seasons changing
戀人迷失在不斷更替的季節當中
Strangers to lovers
從陌生到相戀
What comes around again
一切循環更迭
You'd fall asleep in my embrace
你會在我的懷抱裡安然入睡
Steal a kiss on your little face
偷偷地輕啄你的臉龐
Would have always been that way
一切本應如此美好
But hey
但是
You're never coming back
你再也不會回心轉意
Never coming back
再也不會回心轉意
I'll be waiting anyway
但無論如何我會在此守候
I'll be waiting anyway
無論如何我會在此守候
Until the day
直到那一天

In the middle of the night
在夜深人靜之時
Lonely souls travel in time
孤獨的靈魂在各處游離
Familiar hearts start to entwine
熟悉的心開始緊繫彼此
We imagine what we'll find
我們想像著在另一個生命中
In another life
我們又會找到什麼
Whisper broken promises
呢喃著破碎的誓言
There we hide
我們隱藏自己
Try to make it seem alright
竭力讓一切看似安好

What goes around again
當一切回到原點
We'd be running from the pain
我們會從痛苦中逃離
Finding shelter in the rain
在大雨中尋找避難之所
Lovers straying seasons changing
戀人迷失在不斷更替的季節當中
Strangers to lovers
從陌生到相戀
What comes around again
一切循環更迭
You'd fall asleep in my embrace
你會在我的懷抱裡安然入睡
Steal a kiss on your little face
偷偷地輕啄你的臉龐
Would have always been that way
一切本應如此美好
But hey
但是
You're never coming back
你再也不會回心轉意
Never coming back
再也不會回心轉意
I'll be waiting anyway
但無論如何我會在此守候
I'll be waiting anyway
無論如何我會在此守候

Till it comes around again
直到一切再次循環
We'd be playing in the sand
我們會在沙灘上嬉鬧
Holding hands just one last chance
最後一次握緊彼此的手
No more hurts no more goodbyes
再也不會傷痕累累 再也不會分道揚鑣
We'd dance
我們會翩然起舞
We're never going back
我們再也不會重蹈覆轍
Never turning back
再也不會回頭
Won't you wait with me anyway
你是否願意和我一起守候
Won't you wait with me anyway
你是否願意和我一起守候
Until the day
直到那一天

What comes around goes around
付出總有回報
What goes around comes around
付出總有回報
Until the day
直到永遠

Today’s Vlog:
Here Comes The TANTRUMS,
Nobody can relate?
Panty Cape of Shame,
Souvenirs from Hubby,
Saying Goodbye =(


Hello from Singapore, everyone! It feels so amazing to be back here once again. I'll be doing a Meet & Greet tomorrow so I look forward to seeing your faces. I'm here hosting StyleConAsia and it's been so much fun.

Tim has been updating me constantly with pictures. He is having excellent time with Isaac. Even though for the past couple weeks, I've been experiencing tantrums from Isaac- apparently he has not had a single one since. *scratches head* Maybe I bring it out in him. He keeps testing his limits with me. Can mummies relate? I'll be flying to Malaysia in a couple days time followed by Jakarta and Manilla. I can't wait to hug you all!

Bed time calls. It's been a crazy day. Sweet dreams, my lovelies!

Love, the Bubz fambam xo


Ps. Seriously, somebody PLEASE tell me you can relate to my dog sniffing incident.

陶山 Skot Suyama Playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsdSP04Vm-WhADSgDYOhX11tZXhrGSZ3h
__________________________________________

【The Empire】是知名製作人 陶山老師 在西雅圖的樂團，於1997年陶山 還在唸高中時組成，團員是5個和他一起長大的好朋友，五個人都會創作唱歌，也都精通多種樂器。

2003年 莫文蔚《愛死你》，2015年 謝和弦 & 王詩安《愛不需要裝乖》，當年未發行的demo都是由【The Empire】演唱。

【The Empire】的五名團員，現在都已經是音樂圈裡知名的音樂人；
除了 陶山老師 (http://www.skotsuyama.com) 在華語音樂裡有著“超強主打製造機”的名號之外；女主唱 Melissa Reese (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melissa_Reese) 也加入了世界知名樂團 “槍與玫瑰” ，在全世界巡演；男主唱 Matt Gervais 也加入了美國知名樂團 “The Head and the Heart” (http://www.theheadandtheheart.com) 在全美巡迴演出；另外主唱 Mike Gervais 也出了一張兒童音樂專輯 - “Mikey TheRadScientist” (http://mikeymikemusic.weebly.com) 在西雅圖到處為兒童做音樂表演；還有主唱 Tobias Burch 也創立了一個重金屬樂團Amort，繼續做他喜歡的音樂。

《Never the Point》這首歌是在某一年，陶山 回到西雅圖時，因為剛失戀，在飛機上很快地寫出了這一首歌曲，回到家和這五個好朋友聚會時，團員們迅速的加上更多歌詞和idea，改用歡樂的氣氛玩出了這一首歌曲，安慰了當時情傷的陶山。

所以《Never the Point》雖然是一首心碎的歌曲，但你可以聽到珍貴且深厚的友誼在裡面，這就是【The Empire】樂團的魔力！

【The Empire】五個團員：
因為音樂，變成了好朋友；
用著音樂，療癒安慰彼此；
最後，在對音樂的愛裡，一起長大！

【The Empire】，這是一個代表對音樂最純粹的愛和友情的樂團。

The Empire is Mandarin music producer, Skot Suyama’s Seattle-based band that was formed in 1997 while they were in high school. Other than Skot, whose influence as a hit-making producer is prominent within the Asian region, Melissa Reese is also part of American legend Guns n’ Roses’ world tour. While Matt Gervais is part of well-known American band The Head and the Heart currently touring across the U.S. Mike Gervais also writes children’s music, releasing an album Mikey Mike, The Rad Scientist. Tobias Burch occasionally makes funeral doom music with his band, which consists of only himself, Amort.

Never The Point was written when Skot returned to Seattle one year, and because he had recently broken up with his girlfriend (who he later married), wrote the verse and chorus for it on the plane. When he got home and met up with his five friends, the other band members quickly threw out more lyrics and ideas, to create this song and cheer up the broken-hearted Skot.

Never The Point
我們的愛不是那樣

Music/Lyrics: Skot Suyama (陶山), Melissa Reese, Matt Gervais, Mike Gervais, Tobias Burch

Should I remove the tattoos that I got for you?
我該把為了你而刺的刺青除掉嗎？
nah fuck that shit, I’d rather play it cool
算了我不想管，寧可假裝不在乎
Cause nobody knows what life could bring,
因為沒有人知道生命想帶給你什麼
and then everything is just everything
然後一切事情都還是一樣
And I always thought that you could be my wife
我一直以為妳會成為我的老婆
But everybody changes, that’s the nature of life
可是人會變，這就是宇宙定律
And if you be friends to the very end, we can just pretend
如果你覺得我們可以永遠做朋友，那我們就這樣假裝

But that was never the point of you and I and us,
可是你跟我都知道，我們的愛根本不是那樣
Never the point, baby, of love
我們的愛根本不是那樣
You know your heart’s the only thing you can trust
你知道你的心想要什麼
Don’t let your mind fuck you up too much
不要讓你的頭腦把自己弄得太混亂
But if it gets in the way, then all I can say is
但如果最後，你的頭腦贏了你的心，我也只能說
‘I’ll miss you when you're gone’
妳離開之後我會想妳的
And I’ll try my best to move on
而且我會努力忘記妳，繼續生活

Do I remove the tattoo that I got for you?
我該把為了你而刺的刺青除掉嗎？
Or do I put you through the pain that you put me through?
還是我該讓妳試試看妳到底讓我多痛苦？
Do I hate you and blame you? Wish I never had dated you?
我是不是恨妳，怪妳，寧願我們從來沒有在一起過？
Or take a little vacation, get away, and hope that someday I’ll forget you?
還是去渡個假，離開傷心地，希望總有一天我會忘記妳？
Cause to me, love is dead, you went and shot it in the head
因為對我來說，我的愛情已死亡，被你殺死的愛
I bet you’ve never have guessed it be hard to stay friends
妳應該從來沒想過只是當朋友有多困難
While my heart’s still so broken
當我還在心碎時

But that was never the point of you and I and us,
可是你跟我都心知肚明，我們之間的愛根本不是那樣
Never the point, baby, of love
我們的愛根本不是那樣
You know your heart’s the only thing you can trust
你永遠都知道自己的心想要什麼
Don’t let your mind fuck you up too much
不要讓你的頭腦把自己弄得太混亂
But if it gets in the way, then all I can say is
但如果最後，你的頭腦贏了你的心，我也只能說
‘I’ll miss you when you're gone’

And I’ll try my best to move on
而且我會努力忘記妳，繼續生活

Well, it didn’t take too long, for us to know
當初我們很快就知道
we’d be lovers and nothing more
我們的心只想在一起
But it feels so wrong singing love songs
但唱情歌時總是覺得不對勁
just to prove ourselves to each other darling over and over again
只是一直地保證彼此我們會是情人

But that was never the point of you and I and us,
可是你跟我都心知肚明，我們之間的愛根本不是那樣
Never the point, baby, of love
我們的愛根本不是那樣
You know your heart’s the only thing you can trust
你永遠都知道自己的心想要什麼
Don’t let your mind fuck you up too much

And I’ll try my best to move on
