The Bolter

Taylor Swift - The Bolter (Official Lyric Video)

-

By all accounts, she almost drowned

照情況看來 她那時候差點沒溺死了

When she was six in frigid water

不過六歲的她 墜進冷冰冰的水中

And I can confirm she made

我可以向你證實 她可害得

A curious child, ever reviled

好奇寶寶 被罵的狗血淋頭

By everyone except her own father

除了她父親以外的人都罵過一輪了

With a quite bewitching face

臉上卻一逕掛著幽微的笑

Splendidly selfish, charmingly helpless

極其自私的行為 卻迷人地無可救藥

Excellent fun 'til you get to know her

玩的特別盡興 直到你認清她的本性

Then she runs like it's a race

接著 她像在比賽沒命地跑

Behind her back, her best mates laughed

遠遠落在她後頭的 是她好友們吃吃的笑

And they nicknamed her "The Bolter"

還給她起了個「跑的快」的綽號

Started with a kiss

一切都始於那顆吻

"Oh, we must stop meeting like this"

「噢 我們真不能再像這樣見了」

But it always ends up with a town car speeding

但一切都歸結於鎮上那輛超速行駛的車

Out the drive one evening

那一夜 出外兜風的時候

Ended with the slam of a door

故事以甩上房間的門告終

Then he'll call her a whore

接著 他會說說她有多破

Wish he wouldn't be sore

多希望他沒嚐過這份痛

But as she was leaving

就在她踏出那扇門之際

It felt like breathing

男孩忽然鬆了口氣

All her fuckin' lives

她這該死的一生

Flashed before her eyes

在她眼前一閃而過

It feels like the time

感覺就像那一回

She fell through the ice

她直往冰面下墜

Then came out alive

最終平安脫險

He was a cad, wanted her bad

他那卑鄙小人 老是覬覦女孩

Just like any good trophy hunter

就像搜刮戰利品的了得的獵人

And she liked the way it tastes

她卻也戀戀不忘這滋味

Taming a bear, making him care

先是馴服大熊 接著引起他注意

Watching him jump then pulling him under

看著見獵心喜的他躍起 接著讓他掉入陷阱

And at first blush, this is fate

第一次的臉紅 那就是命運

When it's all roses, portrait poses

滿腦子都是玫瑰和婚紗照之類的

Central Park Lake in tiny rowboats

中央公園湖面划著小小的船兒

What a charming Saturday

多麼寫意的週六哪

That's when she sees the littlest leaks

就在那時 她看見水流進極小的破洞

Down in the floorboards

滲入木質地板的船身

And she just knows she must bolt

她便曉得 她非逃不可

Started with a kiss

一切都始於那顆吻

"Oh, we must stop meeting like this"

「噢 我們真不能再像這樣見了」

But it always ends up with a town car speeding

但一切都歸結於鎮上那輛超速行駛的車

Out the drive one evening

Then came out alive

最終平安脫險

She's been many places with

她出入過各式各樣的場所

Men of many faces

勾搭上形形色色的人

First, they're off to the races

起初 那些男人直搗黃龍

And she's laughing, drawin' aces

而她只是笑 暗幸她得手了

But none of it is changin'

但這些都改變不了什麼

That the chariot is waitin'

外頭那輛戰車仍然備著

Hearts are hers for the breakin'

最後碎滿地的心 卻是她的

There's escape in escaping

在脫逃的世界裏 惟有逃脫

You can be sure

你幾乎就要確認

That as she was leaving

It felt like freedom

Flashed before her eyes

It feels like the time

She fell through the ice

她直往冰面下墜

Then came out alive
