Now You Know

It's okay dad you can go
爸爸 放心走吧
We're all here
这里交给我们
And we know
我们都知道
That you're traveling soon
你将要启程
I've sung you all the songs that I can sing
我会吟诵歌谣 为你饯行
Mostly George Formby with none of the strings
正如福姆比的清唱(乔治·福姆比: 英国著名演员、歌手,常见手持尤克里里自弹自唱)

荒谬的是 生命终结处
It's funny where we can end up
竟然一片荒芜
A life in fields
那正是你足下
And now you're here
寸草不生的土地
Not a blade of grass
你出生在澳大利亚乡野间
You were born in wild Australia
付出一番气力才走到今天
Had to go a long way to be who you are
最后我还是选择

倚靠在你的额前
I did this thing towards the end
将你搂在怀中 不愿松手
Where I put my head right against your head
将你的每一寸灵魂烙入记忆
And I just hold it there
以独自捱过无你相伴的未来
And tried to store up every single vein
我们永不分别
Fixed in my mind for all tomorrow's days
在这尘世上最后一夜
For all tomorrow's days
与你再忆似水年华

温柔凝视 直至你沉入酣眠
And so to the last night of your stay
这是此生唯一一次
Waited up all night
你可知道 再没有一夜更胜此时
And watched you sleep
我如此贴近你的梦境
I've never done that before
在那个放缓了脚步的
And you know what, it was the best night of my life
周二午后
To be close to your dreams for the very first time
你卧床不起

死神俯身向你低语
It was a gentle afternoon
打开窗 许你灵魂以自由
I think Tuesday
飘向漫漫余生
And there you lay
或许午夜之际
You were trying to die
你再次经过医院的停车场
We opened up the window so you could fly
时光忽而回溯
Soar away into the rest of our lives
你向母亲倾诉失眠之苦
I just hope you made it past the hospital car park
直言对死亡的恐惧

但你同样期待生之彼岸
In the middle of the night
此刻 你将前往那里
Some years back
你将揭晓谜底
You told your wife that you could not sleep
You said that you were scared to die
But you were curious to see other side
Well now you know
Now you know
