A whiter shade of pale
我們跳著輕快的方丹哥舞
We skipped the light Fandango
側身在地板上盡情舞蹈
And turned cartwheels across the floor
我感覺有點眩暈
I was feeling kind of seasick
但是圍觀的人吆喝著在來一曲
But the crowd called out for more
屋內越來越嘈雜
The room was humming harder
天花板好像要飛離
As the ceiling flew away
當我們叫另一杯酒時
When we called out for another drink
服務生拿來了一個托盤
The waiter brought a tray
不久之後
And so it was that later
當磨坊主人說起他的故事
As the miller told his tale
她的臉,起初像幽靈一般
That her face at first just ghostly
然後臉色變得極其蒼白
Turned a whiter shade of pale
她說:不為什麼
She said 'There is no reason...
事實顯而易見
And the truth is plain to see'
但我漫不經心在紙牌間
But I wandered through my playing cards
不允許她成為
And would not let her be
十六位純潔的處女之一
One of sixteen vestal virgins
即將離開前往海濱
Who were leaving for the coast
雖然我的眼睛是睜開的
And although my eyes were open
但它們彷彿是閉著的
They might just as well have been closed
不久之後
And so it was that later
當磨坊主人說起他的故事
As the miller told his tale
她的臉,起初像幽靈一般
That her face at first just ghostly
然後臉色變得極其蒼白
Turned a whiter shade of pale
