"Only When I Sleep"(仅当我入眠),来自于可儿家族。

You're only just a dreamboat
你就是我的梦之船
Sailing in my head
航行在我的脑海中
You swim my secret oceans
你游弋在神秘的海洋里
Of coral blue and red
充满着珊瑚般的蓝与红

Your smell is incense burning
你的气味似缭绕的香
Your touch is silken yet
你的抚摸如丝绸的柔
It reaches through my skin
触及我的每寸肌肤
And moving from within
It clutches at my breast
紧紧攫住我的胸膛
让我在灵魂深处感动

But it's only when I sleep
但是只有当我入睡时
See you in my dreams
才能与你相见在梦中
Got me spinning round and round
你令我头晕目眩
Turning upside down
你让我辗转不停
But I only hear you breathe
Somewhere in my sleep
而我只能在梦境的某个角落
听到你的呼吸声
Got me spinning round and round
你令我头晕目眩
Turning upside down
你使我辗转不停
But its only when I sleep
但是那些只在我入眠时才会发生

And when I wake from slumber
一旦我从梦中清醒
Your shadow's disappeared
你却又是无影无踪
Your breath is just a sea mist
你的气息如海上薄雾
Surrounding my body
将我笼罩其中

I'm working through the daytime
白天忙于工作
But when it's time to rest
但等闲余时刻
I'm lying in my bed
躺在自己床上
Listening to my breath
Falling from the edge
倾听自己的呼吸
从唇边飘荡

But it's only when I sleep
但是只有当我入睡时
See you in my dreams
才能与你相见在梦中
Got me spinning round and round
你令我头晕目眩
Turning upside down
你让我辗转不停
But I only hear you breathe
Somewhere in my sleep
而我只能在梦境的某个角落
听到你的呼吸声
(反复)

飞出云宵之外
(Where angels fly)
那里有天使在飞
(I'll never die)
我将获得永生
(Hawaiian high)

歌词:Your smell is incense burning.
你的气味似缭绕的香。
1. Incense: 指“熏香,香”。
2. 最近蚊子开始猖狂起来了,蚊香怎么说呢?我们可以表达为mosquito coil incense。点蚊香,我们一般用上动词burn或者light。
3. Burn incense也指“烧香”。
4. 我们要注意incense还有一个意思是作为动词表示“激怒”。比如:
We were incensed by their bad behaviour.
我们被他们的恶劣行为激怒了。
I was incensed at his rudeness.
我对他的粗鲁感到愤怒。

歌词:It's only when I sleep, see you in my dreams, got me spinning round and round, turning upside down.
只有当我入睡时,才能与你在梦中相见,你令我头晕目眩,你让我辗转不停。
1. Spin最基本的意思是“旋转”,很喜欢看跳舞的女孩子踮着脚尖旋转的动作,这种旋转我们就可以称为spin,比如:
My sister can spin on her toes like a dancer.
我妹妹能像舞者一样踮着脚尖旋转。
2. Go for a spin是一个在口语中很常见的短语,表示“出去兜风”。比如:
Let's go for a spin in my new car.
坐我的新汽车兜一圈吧。
3. Turn upside down: 这个固定短语表示“完全颠倒;倒置”,还可以指“混乱,一塌糊涂”。比如:
Everything in the house was turned upside down for the cleaning.
由于进行大扫除,屋里的一切弄得乱七八糟。

歌词:When I wake from slumber, your shadow's disappeared.
当我从梦中清醒,你却无影无踪。
Slumber 在歌词中是名词,表示“睡眠;休止状态”。把某人从睡眠中唤醒就是wake sb. from slumnber。比如:
Don't wake him from his slumber because he needs the rest.
不要把他从睡眠中唤醒,因为他需要休息。
