Paroles et traduction Aska Yang - 千金散尽

千金散尽

跑了猫的船 摇摇晃晃靠岸
抬头看了看 千疮百孔的帆
它曾经那么勇敢 带我跨遍万水千山
原来看不见的风 就轻易能把它磨烂

数不清的人 纷纷挤上甲板
眺望着远方 幻想那些浪漫
他们向往的海洋
藏着打捞不完的梦想
问我有没有见过 世界尽头的那束光
我点了点头 又摆了摆手

以为光阴 一分一秒 微不足道
可以任性 无拘无束 心高气傲
放下尊严 又赌上性命
千金以散尽
自换来一张空头支票
年少时候豪言壮语许下承诺
积攒半生仍没故事值得诉说
最后一天许下的心愿
是你不要再记得我

抬头看着天 有飞机也有候鸟
云像一个个 摇摇欲坠的巢
磨掉了所有的棱角
终于轮到我来掌舵
才发现所有的方向
终点站的都是同一个
我握紧拳头 我不肯罢休

以为光阴 一分一秒 微不足道
可以任性 无拘无束 心高气傲
放下尊严又赌上性命
千金已散尽
只换来一张空头支票
年少时候豪言壮语许下承诺
积攒半生仍没故事值得诉说
最后一天许下的心愿
是你不要再记得我

以为光阴 一分一秒 微不足道
可以任性 无拘无束 心高气傲
放下尊严又赌上性命
千金已散尽
只换来一张空头支票
年少时候豪言壮语许下承诺
积攒半生仍没故事值得诉说
最后一天许下的心愿
是你不要再记得我

你听列车呼啸着驶过
你听寒风凛冽的吹过
你看处处都有人梦破
多像一场又一场焰火
曾经梦想一步登天当个英雄
千金散尽步步走错两手空空
如果能回到最初那天
抱紧你连话都不说

A Fortune Spent

The cat-less ship, swaying, reached the shore
I looked up at the tattered, torn sail
It was once so brave, carrying me across mountains and seas
It turns out the invisible wind could so easily wear it away

Countless people crowded onto the deck
Gazing at the distance, dreaming of romance
The ocean they yearn for
Holds an endless supply of dreams to be salvaged
They asked if I had seen the light at the end of the world
I nodded, then shook my head

I thought time, every second, insignificant
That I could be reckless, free, and proud
Swallowing my pride and gambling my life
My fortune spent
Only to receive a worthless check
Bold words and promises made in youth
Half a life accumulated, yet no story worth telling
My final wish on this last day
Is that you forget me

Looking up at the sky, planes and migratory birds
Clouds like precarious nests
All the sharp edges worn smooth
Finally, it's my turn to take the helm
Only to discover all directions
Lead to the same final destination
I clench my fists, I refuse to give up

I thought time, every second, insignificant
That I could be reckless, free, and proud
Swallowing my pride and gambling my life
My fortune is spent
Only to receive a worthless check
Bold words and promises made in youth
Half a life accumulated, yet no story worth telling
My final wish on this last day
Is that you forget me

I thought time, every second, insignificant
That I could be reckless, free, and proud
Swallowing my pride and gambling my life
My fortune is spent
Only to receive a worthless check
Bold words and promises made in youth
Half a life accumulated, yet no story worth telling
My final wish on this last day
Is that you forget me

You hear the train whistle as it rushes past
You hear the bitter cold wind blow
You see broken dreams everywhere
Like firework displays, one after another
I once dreamt of reaching the sky, becoming a hero
My fortune spent, every step a mistake, empty-handed
If I could return to that very first day
I'd hold you close, without a word
