作者介紹
特里斯坦·普瑞提曼(Tristan Prettyman)是一名來自加利福尼亞(California)聖地亞哥(San Diego)的創作型歌手和前Roxy模特。她簽約於維珍唱片(Virgin Records)並且發行在2005年8月發行了她的首張主要唱片專輯《Twentythree》。她的第二張專輯《Hello...x》發行於2008年4月15日。而《Cedar And Gold》則為她的新專輯。Glass Jar是《Cedar And Gold》中的主打歌之一。與《I was gonna marry you》的格調相似,都是十分憂傷的歌曲。與之前《Twentythree》、《Hello...x》的歡快風不同。讓人不禁聯想是否與Jason分手有關,其歌詞中的you give up on us 更是與Jason 新專的主打歌《I won't give up》相對應。兩人長達八年的戀愛,最終以分手告終,更是讓人唏噓不已。總之,希望他們都能幸福。
歌詞及翻譯
Tristan Prettyman ——Glass Jar
You're handing me a glass jar and took my hand
那時候你握著我的手,遞給我一個漂流瓶
we were sitting on the stairs staring at the sand
那時候我們坐在高處,低頭靜靜地凝視著流沙
you ask me once and I said yes
你問我願意嗎?我答應了…(求婚)
you said I'd never have to worry about anything ever again
你說我以後再也不會為任何事操心,因為我有你
And now everything's as if nothing ever happen
而現在就好像所有的一切都未發生一般
the version of your story isn't really matching up
你故事中的場景只是一場童話
you gave up on us
你對我們的愛不抱任何希望了…
You got the whole world watching everyone detention yeah
你獲得了世人的矚目
turn your head and you never even mention us
但卻從未回頭看看那個你從未向別人提到過的我
you gave up on love
你對我們的愛不抱任何期待了…
I'm staring at this ring an infinite circle
for nothing could break the foundation we built on
我凝視著那個戒指,回想著那個沒有任何事可以使我們分離的時光
and just like that the wind shifts its way
但卻如風而逝
how could something so sacred ever come to be replaced
為何那神聖的誓言會被取代?
And now everything's as if nothing ever happen
而現在就好像所有的一切都未發生一般
the version of your story isn't really matching up
你故事中的場景只是一場童話
you gave up on us
你對我們的愛不抱任何希望了…
You got the whole world watching everyone detention yeah
你獲得了世人的矚目
turn your head and you never even mention us
但卻從未回頭看看那個你從未向別人提到過的我
you gave up on love
你對我們的愛不抱任何期待了…
I found a little glass jar on the shelf
那個小小的漂流瓶靜靜地待在書架上
it reminded me to take a good heart looking myself
reminding me of some better days
它讓我回想起曾經的美好,它告訴我要好好的…
when I knew you in the version th6a9t I wished you would stayed in
我知道在那個我所期待的童話中你依然還在
but Everything's as if nothing ever happen
而現在就好像所有的一切都未發生一般
the version of your story isn't really matching up
你故事中的場景只是一場童話
you gave up on us你對我們的愛不抱任何希望了
You got the whole world watching everyone detention yeah
你獲得了世人的矚目
turn your head and you never even mention us
但卻從未回頭看看那個你從未向別人提到過的我
you gave up on love
你對我們的愛不抱任何期待了…
Yeah you gave up on us
沒錯,就是你放棄了我們的愛…
