Pulp《Something Changed》

《Something Changed》 

演唱：Pulp

I wrote the song two hours before we met.

我写下这首歌，在我们相遇的两小时前

I did't know your name or what you looked like yet.

我原本不知道你的姓名，甚至你的长相

Oh I could have stayed at home and gone to bed.

其实我原本可能是待在家里，上床睡觉

I could have gone to see a film instead.

或跑去看个电影什么的。

You might have changed your mind and seen your friends

而你则或许是跑去见你的朋友。

Life could have been very different then but something changed.

若是如此，那么人生就会很不一样了。但现在，某些事已经改变。

Do you belive that there's someone up above？

你相信在天上有个人吗？

Does he have a timetable directing acts of love？

难道，衪有个时间表，在主导着爱情？！

Why did I write this song on that day？

为何我会在那天写下这首歌呢？

Why did you touch my hand and softly say.

为何你会触碰着我的手，温柔对我说：

Stop asking questions that dont't matter anyway.

别再问了，这些都不重要。

Just give us a kiss to celebrate here today something changed.

给我们彼此一个吻，为庆祝今天，某些事已经改变。

When we woke up that morning we had no way of knowing

在我们相遇的那天早晨，当我们起床时，没有办法知道

That in a matter of hours we'd change the way we were going.

关键时刻，我们已改变我们原本要前往的方向

Where would I be now ，where would I be now if we'd never met.

此刻的我，此刻的我又将会在哪里，假如我们已经而错过？

Would I be singing this song to someone else instead I dunno

我有没有可能，是对另一个人，唱着这首歌？我不知道。

But like you said something changed.

但就像你说的，某些事已经改变。

 Pulp，英国Britpop中奇怪的成功者，1978年，乐队的灵魂人物Jarvis Cooker即成立了乐队，他们一直沉寂了整整14年，严格说，他们应该是和The Smiths一代的乐手，却直到94年的专辑《His And Hers》才为人注目，而95年的《Different Class》则真正使他们大红大紫，成为Britpop运动中的重要乐队之一。
