The Last Waltz

The Last Waltz

I wonder should I go or should I stay
The band had only one more song to play
And then I saw you out the corner of my eye
A little girl alone and so shy

I had the last waltz with you
Two lonely people together
I fell in love with you
The last waltz should last forever
But the love we had was going strong
Through the good and bad we got along
And then the flame of love died in your eye
My heart was broke in two when you said goodbye

I had the last waltz with you
Two lonely people together
I fell in love with you
The last waltz should last forever
It's all over now
Nothing left to say
Just my tears and the orchestra playing
La la la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la la la.

歌词大意

我不知该走还是该留；
乐队只剩下一首歌要演奏。
这时我从眼角余光看见你
一个既孤单又害羞小姑娘。

我与你，两个孤寂的人在一起
跳了最后这一曲华尔兹。
我爱上了你。
这最后一曲华尔兹应永远继续下去。
我们的爱越来越强烈，
我们共度了快乐与悲伤的时光。
后来爱的火焰在你眼里消失。
当你说“再见”时，我的心碎了。

我与你，两个孤寂的人在一起
跳了最后这一曲华尔兹。
我爱上了你。
这最后一曲华尔兹应永远继续下去。
现在全完了，
再没什么可说了。
只有我的眼泪随着乐队演奏。
啦，啦，啦……
啦，啦，啦……
