不是“Dido 2”的Jem
我听之我见:这首歌的歌词创作可谓独具匠心,从截然相反的视角歌颂了爱情的美好。它之所以能给人们带来震动,并不是故事如何伟大,但是生活中的一些小事,简单的温存使人们重温到生活中的点滴感动。生活,就是因为忽略了细节的美好才会变得不尽人意,这正是这首歌用意所在。
Lyrics
Thank you by Dido
My tea's gone cold
I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
And I can't see at all
And even if I could it'd all be grey,
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad
It's not so bad
I drank too much last night got bills to pay,
My head just feels in pain
I missed the bus and there'll be hell today
I'm late for work again
And even if I'm there, they 'll imply
That I might not last the day
And then you call me and it's not so bad
It's not so bad and
I want to thank you
For giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you
Is having the best day of my life
Push the door, I'm home at last
And I'm soaking through and through
Then you handed me a towel
And all I see is you
And even if my house falls down now
I wouldn't have a clue
Because you're near me and
I want to thank you
For giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you
Is havingthe best day of my life
I want to thank you
For giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you
Is having the best day of my life

中文歌词
茶水逐渐冷却
我不知为何从梦中醒来
晨雨模糊了我的窗户
使我无法看清一切
纵使可以
窗外的一切也将是沉闷的
但墙上你的照片
提醒我一切并不是这样糟糕
并不是
昨夜醉酒
头昏昏沉沉
再次误了班车
这将是糟糕的一天
又一天迟到
即使我去了
他们也将指指点点
认为我撑不过一天
而你的电话
让我感到一切并不是这样糟糕
并不是
