Should have seen it coming when roses died
Я должен был это предвидеть, когда завяли розы,
Should have seen the end of summer in your eyes
Должен был увидеть конец лета в твоих глазах,
I should have listened when you said "Good night"
Должен был услышать, что когда ты сказала "Спокойной ночи",
You really meant "Good bye"
Ты в действительности говорила "Прощай".
Baby, ain't it funny, how you never ever learn to fall
Детка, это совсем не смешно, что ты так и не научилась падать.
You're really on your knees, when you think you're standing tall
Думая, что крепко стоишь на ногах, ты на самом деле стоишь на коленях.
But only fools are "know-it-alls"
Но ведь только дураки думают, что знают всё,
And I played that fool for you
И я прикинулся этим дураком для тебя.
I cried and I cried there were nights that died for you, baby
Я много плакал. А были ночи, когда я умирал из-за тебя, детка.
I tried and I tried to deny that your love drove me crazy, baby
Я всё пытался отрицать тот факт, что любовь к тебе сводит меня с ума.
If the love that I got for you is gone
Если любовь, что была у меня к тебе, прошла,
If the river I cried ain't that long
Если река моих слёз не так уж длинна,
Then I'm wrong, yeah, I'm wrong
Тогда я ошибся, да, я ошибся:
This ain't a love song
Эта песня не о любви.
Baby, I thought you and me would stand the test of time
Детка, я думал, что мы с тобой выдержим испытание временем,
Like we got away with the perfect crime but
Словно совершив идеальное преступление.
We were just a legend in my mind
Но всё между нами было лишь сказкой, которую я сам придумал.
I guess that I was blind
Наверное, я просто был слеп.
Remember those nights dancing at the masquerade
Помнишь те ночи танцев и маскарада?
The clowns wore smiles that wouldn't fade
Клоуны нацепили свои немеркнущие улыбки,
You and I were the renegades,
А мы с тобой были предателями.
And some things never change
Некоторые вещи остаются неизменными...
It made me so mad 'cause I wanted it bad for us, baby
Я жаждал, чтобы у нас всё получилось, и это сводило с ума, детка.
Now it's so sad that whatever we had, ain't worth saving
Вот почему горько оттого, что что бы между нами ни было, это не стоит спасать...
If the love that I got for you is gone
Если любовь, что была у меня к тебе, прошла,
If the river I've cried ain't that long
Если река моих слёз не так уж длинна,
Then I'm wrong, yeah, I'm wrong
Тогда я ошибся, да, я ошибся:
This ain't a love song
Эта песня не о любви.
If the pain that I'm feeling so strong
Если боль, что я сейчас столь остро ощущаю,
Is the reason that I'm holding on
И есть та причина не сдаваться,
Then I'm wrong, yeah, I'm wrong
Значит я ошибся, увы, я ошибся,
This ain't a love song
И эта песня не о любви.
I cried and I cried there were nights that I died for you, baby
Я много плакал. А были ночи, когда я умирал из-за тебя, детка.
I tried and I tried to deny your love drove me crazy, baby
Я всё пытался отрицать тот факт, что любовь к тебе сводит меня с ума.
If the love that I got for you is gone
Если любовь, что была у меня к тебе, прошла,
If the river I cried ain't that long
Если река моих слёз не так уж длинна,
Then I'm wrong, yeah I'm wrong
Тогда я ошибся, да, я ошибся:
This ain't no love song
Эта песня не о любви.
If the pain that I'm feeling so strong
Если боль, что я сейчас столь остро ощущаю,
Is the reason I'm holding on
И есть та причина не сдаваться,
Then I'm wrong, yeah, I'm wrong
Значит я ошибся, увы, я ошибся,
This ain't a love song
И эта песня не о любви.
Should have seen it coming when
I had to foresee this, when the roses wilted,
Should have seen the end of summer in your eyes
I should have seen the end of summer in your eyes,
I should have listened when you said "Good night"
I should have heard that when you said "Good night",
You really meant "Good bye"
You actually said goodbye.
Baby, is not it funny, how do you ever learn to fall
Baby, it's not funny at all, that you never learned to fall.
You're really on your knees, when you think
Thinking that you are standing on your feet, you are actually on your knees.
But only fools are "know-it-alls"
But only fools think they know everything,
And I played that fool for you
And I pretended to be this fool for you.
I cried and I cried there were nights that died for you, baby
I cried a lot. And there were nights when I was dying because of you, baby.
I tried and I was crazy, baby
I've been trying to deny the fact that loving you drives me crazy.
If the love that I got for you is gone
If the love that I had for you has passed,
If the river I cried is not that long
If the river of my tears is not so long,
Then I'm wrong, yeah, I'm wrong
Then I was wrong, yes, I was wrong:
This is not a love song
This song is not about love.
Baby, I thought you and me would stand the test of time
Baby, I thought that we would stand the test of time,
Like we got away with the perfect crime but
Like having committed an ideal crime.
We were just a legend in my mind
But everything between us was just a fairy tale, which I myself came up with.
I guess that I was blind
I guess I was just blind.
Remember those nights at the masquerade
Do you remember those nights of dancing and masquerade?
The clowns wore smiles that would not fade
Clowns put on their unfading smiles,
You and I were the renegades,
And you and I were traitors.
And some things never change
Some things remain unchanged ...
I made it bad for us, baby
I wanted everything to work out, and it was driving me crazy, baby.
Now it's so sad that whatever we had, is not worth saving
That's why it's bitter because whatever happens between us, it's not worth saving ...
If the love that I got for you is gone
If the love that I had for you has passed,
If the river I've cried is not that long
If the river of my tears is not so long,
Then I'm wrong, yeah, I'm wrong
Then I was wrong, yes, I was wrong:
This is not a love song
This song is not about love.
If the pain that I'm feeling so strong
If the pain that I now feel so acutely,
Is the reason that I'm holding on
And there is that reason not to give up,
Then I'm wrong, yeah, I'm wrong
So I was wrong, alas, I was wrong,
This is not a love song
And this song is not about love.
I cried and I cried there were nights that I died for you, baby
I cried a lot. And there were nights when I was dying because of you, baby.
I tried and I've tried to deny your love drove me crazy, baby
I've been trying to deny the fact that loving you drives me crazy.
If the love that I got for you is gone
If the love that I had for you has passed,
If the river I cried is not that long
If the river of my tears is not so long,
Then I'm wrong, yeah I'm wrong
Then I was wrong, yes, I was wrong:
This is not no love song
This song is not about love.
If the pain that I'm feeling so strong
If the pain that I now feel so acutely,
Is the reason I'm holding on
And there is that reason not to give up,
Then I'm wrong, yeah, I'm wrong
So I was wrong, alas, I was wrong,
This is not a love song
And this song is not about love.
