Paroles et traduction 蕭煌奇 - 男人有淚

男人有淚

為什麼成長 把該純白的染黑
慾望無限貴 那些錶光榮了誰
摘不到薔薇 擁誰入睡都有愧
而回憶像鬼 只藏在午夜夢迴

男人從不准有淚 不管有多累
可時間它像賊 偷走哭喊不回的年歲
離鄉茫然的追 事實卻總事與願違
越奔跑越後退 誰懂熱一碗湯的珍貴

男人其實也有淚
用汗水乾杯
能不能在今夜
承認多害怕自己面對
不顧一切的追
太多事喚也喚不回
把被愛當負累
回頭想擁抱只剩空位

思念的人阿 再聯絡人事已非
鑲金的堡壘 又換來快樂了沒
沒靈魂活著 比驟然長眠可悲
貪你的不給 得不到的總最美

Men Can Cry

Why does maturity blacken that which should be pure?
Infinite precious desires, what watches have honored whom?
Unable to pluck the rose, who can I sleep with guilt free?
And memories, like ghosts, only lurk in the dead of night.

Men are never allowed to cry, no matter how exhausted.
Yet time, like a thief, steals irretrievable years and stifled cries.
Desperately pursuing while away from home, reality always proves contrary to hope.
The more you run, the further you fall behind. Who understands the value of a warm bowl of soup?

Men also cry
Toasting with sweat
Can I confess tonight?
I'm so afraid to face myself.
Chasing without a care
Too much I can't call back.
Treating love as a burden
Only to look back and find an empty space.

The one I miss, everything's changed when I reach out again.
This gilded castle, did it bring any happiness?
Living soulless is sadder than a sudden eternal sleep.
Coveting what you don't give, what you can't get always seems the best.
