飘泊的星星
别笑我
这只是一个女孩
被梦境和抱负缠绕着的样子容貌
我在拥抱那些我懂的人
握住我的手
看来日诰日我们会在哪里醒来
最圆满的心意
莫过于整夜相伴
而我被丘比特谩骂
爱已全失落
还不如迷醉在泪水中
听上帝讲述
为什么荒废青春的总是年幼无知的我们
这凶烈残酷的天下
人们却如此热衷
我们都在探寻生命连续的意义
然而,是否
只有飘泊的星星
才试图照亮夜空
我们究竟是谁
实在微不足道
若不慎服从现实
才是可悲
你不畏惧影象的威力
承受它带来的痛楚
昨天
我看到一只狮子亲吻一头小鹿
重新开始
大概统统都会不同
我们踩着泪水狂舞
听上帝诉说
为什么荒废青春的总是年幼无知的我们
这凶烈残酷的天下
人们还在热衷
我们都在探寻生命连续的意义
然而,是否
只有飘泊的星星
才要试图照亮夜空
我以为你会哭泣
我以为你会呼唤我的名字
我以为你会哭泣
可惜统统如旧

Lost Stars
Please don't see
just a girl caught up in dreams
and fantasies
Please see me
reaching out
for someone I can see
Take my hand let's see
where we wake up tomorrow
Best laid plans sometimes
it's just a one night stand
I'd be damned Cupid's demanding
back his arrow
So let's get drunk on our tears and
God, tell us the reason
youth is wasted on the young
It's hunting season
and this lamb is on the run
Searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars,
trying to light up the dark?
Who are we?
Just a spec of dust within the galaxy
Woe is me if we're not careful
turns into reality
Don't you dare let all these memories
bring you sorrow
Yesterday I saw a lion kiss a deer
Turn the page maybe
we'll find a brand new ending
Where we're dancing in our tears and
God, tell us the reason youth
is wasted on the young
It's hunting season
and this lamb is on the run
Searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars,
trying to light up the dark?
I thought I saw you out there crying
I thought I heard you call my name
I thought I heard you out there crying
Just the same
