Once upon a time, the planets and the fates

從前從前 數顆宇宙軌道行星 與人類背負的命運

And all the stars aligned

與天上滿布的星辰 一一相連

You and I ended up in the same room

你和我 就這麼剛好 在同一個地方相遇

At the same time

發生在同一時間點

 

And the touch of a hand lit the fuse

只要你手輕輕一碰 就足以熔斷保險絲

Of a chain reaction of countermoves

啟動應對機制 展開一連串的連鎖效應

To assess the equation of you

只為評估情勢 破解你的不等式

Checkmate, I couldn't lose

將軍 這局 我說什麼也不能輸

 

What if I told you none of it was accidental?

要是我大膽向你坦承 這一切的發生 絕非偶然？

And the first night that you saw me

打從你迎上我視線 邂逅彼此那一晚起

Nothing was gonna stop me

我便拋開顧忌 決定主動出擊

I laid the groundwork, and then

我做好萬全準備 防患未然 接下來

Just like clockwork

行動就如同發條流暢

The dominoes cascaded in a line

骨牌沿著規劃好的路線 傾瀑而下

 

What if I told you I'm a mastermind?

要是我說我是幕後主謀 愛情是我的陷阱？

And now you're mine

如今你落到了我的手中

It was all by dеsign

一切都按照計畫進行

'Cause I'm a mastermind

因為我 就是背後操縱的主謀

 

You see, all the wisеst women

這麼說好了 所有最為明智的女人

Had to do it this way

面對現實 也不得不如此

'Cause we were born to be the pawn

因為我們生來 就注定在名為愛情的遊戲

In every lover's game

成為任情人擺布的棋子

 

If you fail to plan, you plan to fail

假如沒有成功的計畫 那你就等著失敗

Strategy sets the scene for the tale

擬定作戰策略 顧全大局 即可事半功倍

I'm the wind in our free-flowing sails

我是後方推動船隻 一路暢行無阻的順風

And the liquor in our cocktails

也是我們特製雞尾酒 注入的酒精

 

What if I told you none of it was accidental?

要是我大膽向你坦承 這一切的發生 絕非偶然？

And the first night that you saw me

打從你迎上我視線 邂逅彼此那一晚起

I knew I wanted your body

我就確信 我渴望著你的肉體

I laid the groundwork, and then

我做好萬全準備 防患未然 接下來

Just like clockwork

行動就如同發條流暢

The dominoes cascaded in a line

骨牌沿著規劃好的路線 傾瀑而下

 

What if I told you I'm a mastermind?

要是我說我是幕後主謀 愛情是我的陷阱？

And now you're mine

如今你落到了我的手中

It was all by dеsign

一切都按照計畫進行

'Cause I'm a mastermind

因為我 就是背後操縱的主謀

 

No one wanted to play with me as a little kid

我還小的時候 沒有人願意主動一起玩 只能落單

So I've been scheming like a criminal ever since

所以我從那時開始 就學會陰謀暗算別人 像個大壞蛋

To make them love me and make it seem effortless

好讓男人願意愛我 施展表面功夫 看似一點氣力也不費

This is the first time I've felt the need to confess

這還是頭一次 我有股衝動 想說出口 和一個人坦然以對

And I swear

而我可以保證

I'm only cryptic and Machiavellian

我之所以行事神秘 像個豪奪巧取之人

'Cause I care

是因為我在乎

 

So I told you none of it was accidental

於是我向你坦承 這一切的發生 絕非偶然

And the first night that you saw me

打從你迎上我視線 邂逅彼此的那一晚

Nothing was gonna stop me

我就不怕阻礙 為愛勇往直前

I laid the groundwork, and then

我做好萬全準備 防患未然 接下來

Saw a wide smirk on your face

看見你咧開嘴角 綻出大大的笑臉

You knew the entire time

原來你一直以來 早就明白

 

You knew that I'm a mastermind

你早就知道 我才是真正的幕後主謀

And now you're mine

如今 你掉進我的手中

Yeah, all you did was smile

沒錯 你笑的瞬間 就征服了我

'Cause I'm a mastermind

因為我 就是墜入愛河的主謀

Once upon a time, the planets and the fates

很久很久以前 受行星運轉 與冥冥中的機緣使然

And all the stars aligned

而漫天星辰全數連成一線

You and I ended up in the same room

你我不知怎地 竟會突然置身於同一房間

At the same time

成功促成了因緣際會

 

And the touch of a hand lit the fuse

輕輕撫觸便引燃導火線 天雷勾動了地火

Of a chain reaction of countermoves

一連串的連鎖效應 化為接續的實際行動

Had to do it this way

也不得不步上前人後塵

因為我們生來就得背負兵卒的弱小命運

In every lover's game

必須在愛情遊戲求取生機

 

If you fail to plan, you plan to fail
