Adele - Daydreamer

-

Daydreamer

夢想家

Sitting on the sea

安坐細沙

Soaking up the sun

浸潤在驕陽下

He is a real lover

他以真情人一稱為昭著

Of making up the past

總要一邊裨補過往

And feeling up his girl

一邊挑逗他女郎

Like he's never felt her figure before

好似一生中還未曾碰觸她的模樣

A jaw dropper

佼佼者

Looks good when he walks

玉樹臨風的形容

Is the subject of their talk

為附近村民所稱頌

He would be hard to chase

他自負驕縱兼而有之

But good to catch

如若欲擒故縱 卻可得之

And he could change the world

僅憑意念 便能改變宇宙

With his hands behind his back, oh

連根手指頭也不必動 噢

You can find him sitting on your doorstep

你若動身找尋他 不難發現他就坐在你門前台階

Waiting for a surprise

等著不受矚目的驚喜迸現

And he will feel like he's been there for hours

他感覺原先掌握的錦繡時光 正自指尖一點一點地流逝

And you can tell that he'll be there for life

而從他滄桑的神情 你便篤信他將於此蹉跎後半輩子

Daydreamer

逐夢者

With eyes that make you melt

眼神熔解了你防守

He lends his coat for shelter

他破釜沉舟

Plus he's there for you

再者 他永遠在你身邊

When he shouldn't be

儘管他並不應該

But he stays all the same

可他寧可不迭代

Waits for you

日夜守著你

Then sees you through

最後終究看穿你心緒

There's no way I could describe him

道盡了言語 仍無法描摹他英姿

What I've said is just what I'm hoping for

這般的措辭 便是我的情思

But I will find him sitting on my doorstep

而到底我還是要在我門前台階 尋得他孤獨身影

Waiting for a surprise

等待從不打算降臨的神蹟

And he will feel like he's been there for hours

而他或將自睡夢中驚醒 待回過神來只覺恍若隔世

And I can tell that he'll be there for life

那刻起 我便確信他的幽影將縈繞夢鄉 永不行辭

And I can tell that he'll be there for life

來世今生 他幽影將魂牽夢繞於我心頭 永不消逝

收錄自愛黛兒個人首張錄音室專輯，19。

歌詞優美而雋永，旨在闡述家鄉的心上人(亦為摯友)是為雙性戀，

歌者自覺無可匹敵，吃味與感慨心緒交織下，便編纂了此曲。

以「白日夢」一詞象徵了關係絕無可能，惟有夢鄉方能相會。
