歌曲歌詞
英文歌詞
The Tip of the Iceberg
Welcome back winter once again
And put on your warm fuzzy sweater
'Cause you'll feel much better when
The snowflakes fall gently to the ground
The temperature drops and your shivers
Freeze all the rivers around
But I keep you warm
If speed's a pro,
inertia must be a con
'Cause the cold wind blows at precise rates
When I've got my ice skates on
If all the roads were paved with ice
That wouldn't thaw or crack
I could skate from Maine to Nebraska
Then on to Alaska and back
'Cause you keep me warm
Peer over the edge, can you see me?
Rivulets flow from your eyes
Paint runs from your mouth like a waterfall
And your lungs crystallize
I'll travel the sub-zero tundra
I'll brave glaciers and frozen lakes
And that's just the tip of the iceberg
I'll do whatever it takes to change
Farewell powdery paradise
We'd rather skate on the finished ice
Fingers failed us before they froze
Frostbite bit down on all our toes
Snow drifts build up and enfold us
As we wait in this winter storm
So we snuggle close in the dark now
And keep each other so warm

The Tip of the Iceberg冰山一角
Welcome back winter once again迎接冬季再次降臨
And put on your warm fuzzy sweater你穿上了絨絨的羊毛衫
'Cause you'll feel much better when因為這樣你會感到更溫暖
The snowflakes fall gently to the ground當雪花輕盈地飄落至地面
The temperature drops and your shivers氣溫驟降，你的寒顫
Freeze all the rivers around冰封了周圍所有的河畔
But I keep you warm卻讓我保持溫暖
If speed's a pro,倘若速度是利
inertia must be a con那慣性則是弊
'Cause the cold wind blows at precise rates因為當我從冰面上滑過時
When I've got my ice skates on寒風正以精準的速率呼嘯
If all the roads were paved with ice如果覆蓋在路面上的冰層
That wouldn't thaw or crack不會融化或碎裂
I could skate from Maine to Nebraska我能從緬因州滑到內布拉斯加
Then on to Alaska and back再繼續到阿拉斯加然後折返
'Cause you keep me warm因為你使我保持溫暖
Peer over the edge, can you see me?從邊緣眺望你能否把我瞅見
Rivulets flow from your eyes你的淚水如溪般奪眶而出
Paint runs from your mouth like a waterfall斑斕的色彩從你的口中如瀑布般傾瀉
And your lungs crystallize你的心扉變得結晶透明
I'll travel the sub-zero tundra我將到嚴寒的苔原地區旅行
I'll brave glaciers and frozen lakes我將勇敢地面對冰川和東湖
And that's just the tip of the iceberg而這只是冰山一角
I'll do whatever it takes to change我將為改變付出一切
Farewell powdery paradise別了粉狀天堂
We'd rather skate on the finished ice我們願在未解凍的冰層上滑行
Fingers failed us before they froze十指在凍傷前已動彈不得
Frostbite bit down on all our toes凍瘡布滿我們的腳趾頭頭
Snow drifts build up and enfold us堆積的飄雪包裹了我們
As we wait in this winter storm在等待這場冬季的風暴時
So we snuggle close in the dark now我們在黑暗中緊緊偎依
And keep each other so warm相濡以沫以持溫暖
