Such Great Heights

Such Great Heights
The Postal Service
Give Up
by Rong Bin
I am thinking its a sign
我想這，或許只是個徵兆
that the freckles in our eyes
我們眼角的小斑點
are mirror images
它們是，鏡中的映像
and when we kiss theyre perfectly aligned.
輕吻後，便井然有序
And I have to speculate
有時我，忍不住猜想
that God Himself did make
上帝他親手，在創世之初
us into corresponding shapes
賦予我等眾生，千姿百態
like puzzle pieces from the clay.
像用黏土拼湊，萬千謎題
And true it may seem like a stretch
這或果真就如，每次伸展
but its thoughts like this that catch
但其思緒卻在，四處逸散
my troubled head when youre away
自你離去後我，終日心亂
and when I am missing you to death.
一想起你就欲，飛蛾撲火
And when you are out there on the road
那天街頭偶然，與你邂逅
for several weeks of shows
聽說你這演出，長達幾週
and when you scan the radio
當你聽著廣播，不斷換台
I hope this song will guide you home.
我只願這支歌，帶你回家
they will see us waving from such great heights
我們致意人群，身處雲端
'come down now' theyll say
他們會叫喚道，“快下來吧”
but everything looks perfect from far away
但遠方的一切，如此靜好
'come down now' but well stay
“快下來吧”我們，依然廝守
I tried my best to leave
我盡力掙脫
this all on your machine
你這時光機
but the persistent beat
但節奏井然依舊
it sounded thin upon the sending.
聽上去卻有些弱
and that frankly will not fly
或不再翱翔長空
youll hear the shrillest highs
你會聽見尖銳的高音
and lowest lows with the windows down
打開機窗，尾音低沉
and this is guiding you home.
你已經踏上歸家之路
they will see us waving from such great heights
我們致意人群，身處雲端
'come down now' theyll say
他們會叫喚道，“快下來吧”
but everything looks perfect from far away
但遠方的一切，如此靜好
'come down now' but well stay
“快下來吧”我們，依然廝守
