Taylor Swift - it’s time to go (Official Lyric Video)

-

When the dinner is cold and the chatter gets old

桌邊飯菜不再熱氣蒸騰 而是如話題般呆板冷淡

You ask for the tab

你揩揩嘴唇 攔住服務生 說是要結清付款

Or that moment again, he's insisting that friends

令我困惑的是 方才他不是還信誓旦旦 拍胸脯保證

Look at each other like that

朋友講求誠信 不必擔心 儘管眼神偶有批判審慎

When the words of a sister come back in whispers

本來的姊妹淘內心話 竟成了蜚語輾轉傳回我耳邊

That prove she was not in fact what she seemed

確鑿證據證實了謠言 她確實表裡不一 背叛我的信任

Not a twin from your dreams

從前以孿生姊妹相稱的回憶 全成了泡影

She's a crook who was caught

謊言遭人戳破 被逮個正著 狡辯更令人作嘔

That old familiar body ache

背後再熟悉不過的瘡疤 開始發燙作痛

The snaps from the same little breaks in your soul

逐一觸動最為敏感神經 挑筋剔骨 將信任毀壞殆盡

You know when it's time to go

你便確信不過 是時候該重新出發了

Twenty years at your job

父親堅守工作岡位 二十年來始終如一 正要升遷之際

Then the son of the boss gets the spot that was yours

卻半路殺出程咬金 全賴小老闆動用裙帶關係 搶取先機

Or trying to stay for the kids

聲稱是為了孩子們著想 遲遲不肯分居

When keeping it how it is will only break their hearts worse

但愈是維繫有名無實的婚姻 反而愈是傷得我們姊弟倆愈重

That old familiar body ache

胸前再熟悉不過的瘡疤 開始發燙作痛

The snaps from the same little breaks in your soul

逐一觸動敏感神經 直到滲透衣襟 將胸口染成血紅

You know when it's time to go

你便確信不過 是時候該重新出發了

Sometimes giving up is the strong thing

有時學會放下 反而體現了堅強 絕非懦弱

Sometimes to run is the brave thing

若見苗頭不對 逃離泥淖 證明勇敢面對心魔

Sometimes walking out is the one thing

自知情勢不利於己 只得走開 暫且飲敗

That will find you the right thing

而慘痛的經驗教訓 將尋回至關重要的愛

Fifteen years, fifteen million tears

出道十五年 流了將近千百萬滴淚水

Begging 'til my knees bled

向人下跪求饒 直到鮮血直流仍不放過我

I gave it my all, he gave me nothing at all

悉心付出畢生所有 卻換來如今一無所有

Then wondered why I left

而他居然還拉得下臉來問 『你怎會離開我』

Now he sits on his throne in his palace of bones

爾今 他安逸地高踞那骸骨屍首拼湊而成的寶座

Praying to his greed

極盡貪婪虛妄之能事

He's got my past frozen behind glass

更令人髮指的是 他居然將我過往創作 當作戰利品展示

But I've got me

但這次 我有把握能救回自己 推翻整頓這虛妄皇室

That old familiar body ache

身上再熟悉不過的瘡疤 開始發燙作痛

The snaps from the same little breaks in my soul

逐一觸動最為敏感神經 傷我至深 將信任毀壞殆盡

I know when it's time to go

而我再清楚不過 也該是時候向前行

Sometimes giving up is the strong thing

有時學會放下 反而體現了堅強 絕非懦弱

Sometimes to run is the brave thing

若見苗頭不對 逃離泥淖 證明勇敢面對心魔

Sometimes walking out is the one thing

自知情勢不利於己 只得走開 姑且挫折飲敗 

That will find you the right thing

而慘痛的經驗教訓 將尋回至關重要的愛

That will find you the right thing

那至關重要的愛 便是畢生所有

And you know in your soul

而深諳道理的你 打自心底明白 

You know in your soul

何時該前進 何時該放棄

When it's time to go

若情勢不利 便果斷離去

You know, you know, you know, you know

不必旁人提點 自有方寸 再不必折磨教訓

When it's time to go

時機一成熟 自然就該離開

So then you go

於是你決心重新出發

Then you go

你不再回頭

You just go

只管向前奔馳
