I remember quite clearly now when this stories happened
The autumn leaves were floating and measured down to the ground
我记得很清楚,这个故事发生的时候
秋叶正飘零,缓缓落地
Recovering the lake where we used to swim like children
On the sun would dare to shine
覆盖在我们曾像孩子般畅游的湖面上
那时阳光是多么灿烂
That time, we used to be happy
Well, I thought we were
那个时候我很高兴
以为你的感觉也一样
But the truth was that -- You had been longing to leave me
Not daring to tell me
但事实是,你一直渴望离开我
但一直不敢告诉我
On that precious night watching the lake vaguely conscious
You said: Our story is ending
在那个美丽的夜晚,看着湖面,恍惚中
你说:我们的故事结束了
The rain was killing the last days of summer
You had been killing my last breath of love since a long time ago
雨水扼杀着所剩无几的夏日
而你很久以来也在扼杀我奄奄一息的爱
I still don’t think I’m gonna make it through another love story
You took it all away from me
我仍不敢再次投入爱河
你带走了我爱人的能力
And there I stand, I knew I was gonna be the one who left behind
But still I’m watching the lake vaguely conscious
现在我站在这里,知道自己注定离开
但我仍然在看着湖水恍惚
And I know ----
My life is ending
我知道
我的生命即将结束
《Stories》是法国歌星Viktor Lazlo演绎的一首歌曲,一位失恋的姑娘决定投湖自尽结束生命前的独白,绝望凄美至极。
哥哥张国荣也在1988年百事巨星演唱会上翻唱过这首歌。哥哥的英文朗读低沉凄迷,将这首歌曲的忧伤绝望之情演绎得淋漓尽致。
