Coldplay - The Hardest Part

The Hardest Part出自2006年coldplay第三章專輯：X&Y

中英歌詞（中文是自己翻譯的，不一定正確，目前感覺還是有些生硬）

And the hardest part
最艱難的部分在於
Was letting go not taking part
放手讓她走而不隨行
Was the hardest part
那就是最困難的部份
And the strangest thing
而最令人不舒服的事情
Was waiting for that bell to ring
是等待那喚醒記憶的鬧鐘開始響起
It was the strangest start
那便是最令人不舒服的開始

I could feel it go down
我能感受到我所吞下的苦澀
Bittersweet I could taste in my mouth
一種留在在口中苦樂參半的餘韻
Silver lining in the clouds
絕境中的曙光在哪呢
oh And I
喔～ 我呢
I wish that I could work it out
希望能找出解答的鎖匙

And the hardest part
最艱難的部分在於
Was letting go not taking part
放手讓她走而不隨行
You really broke my heart
你真的傷透了我的心
And I tried to sing
我試著高歌揮去哀傷
But I couldn't think of anything
然而我的腦中卻已經被一片空白所填滿
And that was the hardest part
那便是最困難的部份

I could feel it go down
我能感受到我吞下了它
You left the sweetest taste in my mouth
口中所留下的是你給的甜蜜的味道
You're a silver lining the clouds
你是我絕境中的希望
Oh, and I
哦，我呢
Oh, and I
哦，我呢
I wonder what its all about [x2]
我好奇這一切究竟是為了什麼呢

Everything I know is wrong
我知道的事都是錯的
Everything I do it just comes undone
我所做的一切都化為烏有
And everything is torn apart
我的心痛得快要裂開
Oh and thats the hardest part
喔，那就是最困難的部份
Thats the hardest part
那就是最困難的部份
Yeah, thats the hardest part
對阿，那就是最困難的部份
Thats the hardest part

那就是最困難的部份

(另外附上非常詭異的表演MV。)

Coldplay - Strawberry Swing

氣息相當淡的一首歌曲，卻搭配故事色彩濃烈的MV，讓我剛開始甚至沒有注意到這首歌有詞呢。(點擊此處看MV)

ps. 魔王真是太可愛了

#Lyric##

They were sitting
They were sitting on the Strawberry Swing
Every moment was so precious

They were sitting
They were talking under Strawberry Swing
Everybody was for fighting
Wouldn't wanna waste a thing

Cold, cold water bring me 'round
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Cold, cold water what ya say?
When it's such…
It's such a perfect day
It's such a perfect day

I remember
We were walking up to Strawberry Swing
I can't wait until the morning
Wouldn't wanna change a thing

People moving all the time
Inside a perfectly straight line
Don't you wanna just curve away?
When it's such…
It's such a perfect day
It's such a perfect day

Ahhh...

Now the sky could be blue
I don't mind
Without you it's a waste of time

Could be blue
I don’t mind
Without you it’s a waste of time


Could be blue,
Could be gray
Without you I’m just miles away

Could be blue
I don’t mind
Without you it’s a waste of time
