Table For One - Live Version - Passenger
So I sit on this table for one
我坐在这单人桌前
Pour me a drink that'll last
倒上一杯酒，饮而复斟不止
I'm not drunk I just miss being young
我不是酒后酩酊，只是怀念那青葱岁月
And I grew old so fast
时不待我，竟老得如此之快
My wife she breaks and she bends
我的妻子积劳成疾，腰身日渐佝偻
My children they don't understand
我的孩儿年纪尚幼，不明世事颠沛
Came here tonight in search of a friend
今晚我来到这里，为的不过是觅一知己
But I'm the invisible man
可是我被视为无物，无人留意
Cause I've swallowed my tongue
因为我已忍气吞声，三缄其口
And I've polished my gun
我已拭枪熄火，无心再战
And I've sat on my secrets for years
年复一年，我坚守着我的秘密
With my stiff upper lip
僵唇难启，不苟言笑
My composure won't slip
沉寡积淀，又怎会倏然散退
And I've hidden each silent salty tear
多少咸苦辛酸泪，我默然匿藏于心
So I sit on this table for one
我坐在这单人桌前
And I have been here before
这已不是我第一次来到这里
It's a little less than I'd had in mind
买醉于此，诚然难以尽解心中郁结
But I wouldn't ask for more
但我也不会再多做妄求
And my mother she taught me to write
我的母亲教我以落笔行书
And my father he taught me his trade
我的父亲授我以商贸易货
And I wish that they could both be here tonight
我多希望，今晚他们能出现于此
To see what a mess I've made
好好看看，我是如何落得田地如斯
Cause I've swallowed my tongue
因为我已忍气吞声，三缄其口
And I've polished my gun
我已拭枪熄火，无心再战
And I've sat on my secrets for years
年复一年，我坚守着我的秘密
With my stiff upper lip
僵唇难启，不苟言笑
My composure won't slip
沉寡积淀，又怎会倏然散退
And I've hidden each silent salty tear
多少咸苦辛酸泪，我默然匿藏于心
My sons and my daughters don't know me at all
我的子女亦难以明解一星半点
I've dug in trenches and put up walls
我挖出躲藏的战壕，砌出隔绝的心墙
I whisper I love you each night as they sleep
每晚他们熟睡之时，我总细声喃语：我爱你们
But no one hears me when I speak
不过怕是无人能听见
On this table for one
我在这单人桌前的一声一息
So I sit on this table for one
我坐在这单人桌前
I won't go till they tell me to leave
在他们对我加以劝赶前，我绝不离开
Why'd they teach me to follow my dreams
为什么他们教我去追逐梦想
When dreams are all they can be
在他们的前方，梦想都触手可及
