Dr.LUKE'S iDLE UTTERANCE

Darkness falls on a Sunday night
Once again I'm all alone
And I can't fight the memories
Lost deep within my thoughts 'til the dawn

Say goodbye and then you return
To a place you call home
And I don't know why we keep fighting for
A love that has been cursed from the start

Some people say that those with impure hearts
Will not be given a blessing from up above
Won't you please tell me what crimes I'm guilty of
I know my feelings are real
But is this love ?

Kissing you as I close my eyes
Make me believe that you are mine
I don't wanna see the pain tomorrow brings
I need the warmth of your embrace
I feel your body close to me
And now I know this is where I want to be
Simple words I know I cannot speak
“I love you”just echoes silently

There are some who will tell you lies
Playing games from the start
But when I say that I need you truly
Believe me these words come from my heart

In a world full of deception and sorrow
You make a promise to never hurt those you love
I'll bear this burden, I'll learn to carry on
A fire burns deep in my heart
I will be strong

It hurts me every time you go
I long for you when we're apart
I reach for you but I'm left here in the dark
And when the day it finally comes
For us to say our last goodbye
This is all that I ask from you before we part
Let me sing a final song for you
Keep it locked up deep down inside your heart

If we had only met much sooner
Then we could have walked this path together
But it's much too late for regret
Wipe my tears I try to forget
If we had only taken time to
Figure out a way to see this thing through
Just the two of us we'd sing in perfect harmony (Ti Amo)

I can't go on I feel so weak
It's in your eyes you're blaming me
But we both knew it would end before the start
And every night before you sleep
Please won't you say a prayer for me
Promise you'll never forget the times we had
Close my eyes to all the lies I see
All alone with my precious memories

英語は単語をはめるため、かなり内容が説明的になる。原詩は俳句的で、行間から状況・情景を読み取りつつイメージを構成する必要がある。各人の経験に応じてその豊かさが変わるのだ。しかし、この曲はやばい、かなりクル・・・。
