On The Flip Of A Coin - The Streets

On The Flip Of A Coin - The Streets
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
From the point he gazedf
当他凝望远方
From the choice was made
抉择已然成形
But 'walk the cave or the shore'
是穿越洞穴还是漫步海岸
The oily cave seemed to breathe
幽暗洞穴仿佛在吞吐气息
On him through gravestone jaws
如墓碑獠牙般笼罩着他
His little hand grasped in
小手紧握成拳
Anguish as he weighed up his coin
痛苦地权衡着命运硬币
Somewhere a blue eyed girl in the
远方有位蓝眸少女
World is just waiting for a boy
世界正等待着一个男孩
Footprints trailed as if trod by
足迹如奴隶般蜿蜒
Slaves up to the grey cave floor
延伸至灰暗的洞穴地面
But not one graze from
却无一处伤痕
Anything ever escaping this fort
能逃离这座堡垒的禁锢
So with coin on hand his joy came back
手握硬币时 欢愉重新降临
When ordered to take the shore
当命运指引他走向海岸
Why on earth' as he wandered the warmth 'am
他徘徊在暖意中自问为何
I obeying this coin'
我遵从这枚硬币的旨意
Turn your life on the flip of this coin
让命运在硬币翻转间决定
Turn upside a choice you'd normally avoid
选择那条你惯常逃避的路
And promise me you'll follow what it says
答应我你会遵循它的指引
Whatever it says
无论结果如何
Again walk within the trusted
再次走在熟悉的海滩
Beach or swim the swell of the sea
或游向汹涌的海浪
And again the scarier alternative
又一次面对更令人畏惧的选择
Looked like certain death to he
看似必死无疑的绝境
He'd never learnt to skill of swimming
他从未掌握泅水的技艺
It never occurred to be very easy
从未想过这会如此轻易
And again he winced as he flipped
再次颤抖着掷出硬币
The coin and it twirled to his feet
旋转着坠落在脚边
How is this sane' he blamed
「这怎算明智？」他埋怨道
The coin now aiming for the waves
硬币正滚向浪涛
As he hesitated at the swirl of
他在汹涌漩涡前犹豫不决
Water as it raged and rained
怒涛翻涌 暴雨倾盆
Blue eyed girls were waiting
蓝眸少女们正翘首以待
And he was drowning in the spray
他却溺毙在浪花的迷惘里
Blue eyed girls he should have been
那些蓝眼睛的姑娘本该
Acquainted with but for shouting and flailing
相识相知 却被呼救与挣扎阻隔
Turn your life on the flip of this coin
让命运在硬币翻转间决定
Turn upside a choice you'd normally avoid
选择那条你惯常逃避的路
And promise me you'll follow what it says
答应我你会遵循它的指引
Whatever it says
无论结果如何
He finally slugs it back to land
他终于挣扎着游回岸边
Eeling chewed up and foolish
狼狈不堪又懊悔万分
Empties his pockets on
将口袋里的东西
The sand spewing a pool each
尽数倾泻在沙滩上
Staggers back to his dad who's too cool to be
踉跄走向父亲 而父亲从容依旧
So he says 'why did you have
他问道"为何要我遵循
Me follow this stupid rule please'
这愚蠢的规则呢"
To be honest little fellow I'll tell you
说实话小家伙 我要告诉你
I was just as afraid as you
我也曾和你一样恐惧
But you said you wanted to get
但你说渴望结识
With people and places ever new
新的人和新的天地
And I got a bit scared of the fate
我不禁为爱子的前程
Of my baby son's future
感到些许忧虑
So I invented a reason to see
于是我找了个借口想看看
If you could ever make do
你是否能应付得来
As soon as you appeared behind
当你突然从礁石后现身
That rock looking angry at me
对我怒目而视时
I soon realised what a hell of
我瞬间明白你已成长为
A man you've ended up being
多么了不起的男子汉
I knew you'd worked out how to swim
我知道你已学会游泳
Which I hadn't had in me
那曾是我未能突破的恐惧
And I stand as a companion of you
我与你并肩而立
Proudest a man has ever been
见证一个父亲最骄傲的时刻
Turn your life on the flip of this coin
让命运在硬币翻转间决定
Turn upside a choice you'd normally avoid
选择那条你惯常逃避的路
And promise me you'll follow what it says
