电影《曾经》插曲--《Falling Slowly》

我不懂你

But I want you

但愿同你在一起

All the more for that

分享生活的点点滴滴

Words fall through me

找不到合适的话语形容

And always fool me

想说却总是词不达意

And I can't react

无可奈何无法回应

And games that never amount

这场爱会无疾而终吧

To more than they're meant

毫无意义

Will play themselves out

结束是或迟或早的问题

Take this sinking boat and point it home

搭乘这艘即将沉没的船缓缓归去

We've still got time

或许我们还有机会挽回

Raise your hopeful voice, you have a choice

你可以做出选择 让我听到你说愿意

You've make it now

但我知道你心意已决

 

 

 

Falling slowly, eyes that know me

欲哭无泪 心如死灰

And I can't go back

我明白一切覆水难收

Moods that take me and erase me

悲伤将我吞噬

And I'm painted black

世界一片混沌

Well, you have suffered enough

在自我的内心斗争里

And warred with yourself

你也身心俱疲

It's time that you won

这次你也该赢了

Take this sinking boat and point it home

搭乘这艘即将沉没的船缓缓归去

We've still got time

或许我们还有时间挽回

Raise your hopeful voice, you have a choice

你可以做出选择 让我听到你说愿意

You've made it now

但我知道你心意已决

Falling slowly sing your melody

万念俱灰间慢慢唱着你的旋律

I'll sing along

我也会附和你的歌声

I paid the cost too late, now you are gone

我付出了代价 太迟了 现在你已远去

 电影《曾经》(Once)的美丽单曲《Falling Slowly》2007年赢得了奥斯卡最佳原创歌曲奖，这一结果在许多乐评人的意料之外。这首歌由格伦·汉萨德(Glen Hansard)和马吉塔·艾尔格洛娃(Marketa Irglova)联合撰写并演唱，当年这首歌曲击败了迪士尼热门单曲和其他的强劲竞争对手。电影《曾经》以跳芭蕾舞的汉萨德和艾尔格洛娃两个角色为主线，是一部音乐剧性质的电影。这首歌曲的获奖代表了独立电影的音乐受到了大家的支持。
