if you want me

   sometimes we touch




You ask me if I love you        你问我爱不爱你
And I choke on my reply     我不知该怎么回答
I’d rather hurt you honestly     坦城的回答会伤害你

For who am I to judge you     通过我对你的判断
In what you say or do     通过你的所作所为
I’m only just beginning         我刚刚开始
To see the real you       认清一个真实的你
And sometimes when we touch      有些时候我们接触
The honesty’s too much      彼此太过坦白
And I have to close my eyes      我闭上眼睛
And hide                           把自己隐藏
I want to hold you till die       我想拥有你直到死去
I’ll we both break down and cry      直到我们分开的那一天
I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides            我想抱着你直到不能生存
Romance’s an honest strategy                    浪漫就像一场甜蜜的战役
Leaves me grappling with my pride               让我失去我的骄傲
But through the years of maturity      但是当很多年成熟以后
Some tenderness survives      依然健在的只是亲切
I’m just another writer                 我不过是一个另类的作家
Still trapped within my truth            仍然会在我的真理中被诱捕
A hesitant prizefighter          一个意志不坚定的战斗者
Still trapped within my youth           仍然会在我的真理中被诱捕
At times I’d lied to break you            很多次我用说谎来伤害你
And drive you to your knees           使你拜倒在我的旗下
