Paroles et traduction A-Mei Chang - 偷故事的人

偷故事的人

當你走的那天 我不再說故事了
不再編織起承轉合 也不用為結局苦惱了
當你走的那天 你不再說故事了
不再安排我的對白 也叫我別再著迷了
於是偷走令自己大笑的故事
於是偷走令自己傷心的故事
而我總任性的 對別人驕傲的說著
口沫橫飛 生動的 像我們一起走過的
本可那樣幸福的
而你走的那天 所有觀眾隨你走了
聽者既然無心聽著 說者當然也無意了
應該要一一道歉 我不該偷故事的
是你讓我的精采空了 而想念讓人變狂了
於是拼揍了別人傷心的故事
於是黏貼了別人快樂的故事
而我總練習著 如何驕傲的說著
同時不再情緒化的 為偷竊行為負責
因為愛是貧窮的
為我的無理道歉 我道歉 我道歉
為我的虛榮道歉 我道歉 我道歉
像每個寓言說的 貪婪是有代價的
我擁有超過我能承載的 你連結局也不留了
於是偷走令自己大笑的故事
於是偷走令自己傷心的故事
而我總任性的 對別人驕傲的說著
口沫橫飛 生動的 像我們一起走過的
本可那樣幸福的
我道歉 我道歉 我不該偷故事的

The Story Thief

The day you left, I stopped telling stories
No longer weaving the plot, no longer fretting over the ending
The day you left, you stopped telling stories
No longer crafting my dialogue, telling me to stop obsessing
So I stole the stories that made me laugh
So I stole the stories that made me cry
And I would tell them proudly to others, with a smug grin
My words flowing, vivid, as if we had lived them together
As if we could have been so happy
But the day you left, the audience left with you
The listeners had lost interest, so the speaker had nothing to say
I should apologize, I shouldn't have stolen the stories
You made my life vibrant, and now longing has driven me mad
So I stitched together the sad stories of others
So I pasted together the happy stories of others
And I practiced how to tell them proudly
Numbing myself to the theft
Because love is poverty
Apologies for my selfishness, I apologize, I apologize
Apologies for my vanity, I apologize, I apologize
As every fable says, greed comes at a price
I took more than I could handle, and you left without a trace
So I stole the stories that made me laugh
So I stole the stories that made me cry
And I would tell them proudly to others, with a smug grin
My words flowing, vivid, as if we had lived them together
As if we could have been so happy
I apologize, I apologize, I shouldn't have stolen the stories
