Carpenters - I Need To Be In Love

Lyrics

The hardest thing I’ve ever done is keep believing
我做過最困難的一件事就是堅信
There’s someone in this crazy world for me
這瘋狂的世界裡有人在某處默默的等著我
The way that people come and go thru temporary lives
短暫的一生中，人們來來去去
My chance could come and I might never know
我或許曾有機會，但自己卻永遠無法知道

I used to say "no promises, let’s keep it simple"
我常說,"不要承諾，讓一切簡簡單單"
But freedom only helps you say good-bye
但自由換來的卻是你的離去
It took a while for me to learn
我花了好長一段時間才明白
That nothin’ comes for free
沒有東西是不勞而獲的
The price I’ve paid is high enough for me
而我所付出的代價卻也已經夠高


(*) I know I need to be in love
我知道自己需要愛
I know I’ve wasted too much time
我知道自己已浪費太多時光
I know I ask perfection of a quite imperfect world
我曉得自己在一個不完美的世界尋求完美
And fool enough to think that’s what I’ll find
並傻到以為自己能找到心中所希冀的他


So here I am with pockets full of good intentions
我心中充滿對未來的美好憧憬
But none of them will comfort me tonight
但今晚卻沒有任何一個可以安慰我
I’m wide awake at four a.m.
凌晨四點我仍睡不著
Without a friend in sight
沒有任何一個人伴我身旁
Hanging on a hope but I’m alright
但我很好，儘管只僅存一絲希望


Repeat twice (*)
