Hey there Delilah What's it like in New York City²?
I'm a thousand miles away
But girl tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Times Square can't shine as bright as you
I swear it's true
嘿黛丽拉你好吗
你在纽约过得怎么样
我现在在千里之外
不过姑娘今晚你看起来可真美
真的
时代广场也比不上你的明媚
我发誓这是真的
Hey there Delilah
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice it's my disguise
I'm by your side
嘿黛丽拉你好吗
你有没有为我们之间的距离担心呢
当你寂寞的时候我就在这里
再听一次这首歌
合上你的眼睛
听着我的声音 假装
我就在你身边
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me
噢 是你改变了我
噢 是你改变了我
噢 是你改变了我
噢 是你改变了我
是你改变了我
Hey there Delilah
I know times are getting hard
But just believe me girl
Someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar
We'll have it good
We'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good
嘿黛丽拉你好吗
我知道生活越来越不容易
但相信我好吗姑娘
总有一天我会靠这把吉他赚上钱
一切都会好起来
我们会过上好日子 就像从前说起的那样
我说到做到
Hey there Delilah
I've got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away
I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall
We'd have it all
嘿黛丽拉你好吗
我还有好多话想说
如果我写给你的每首歌
都会让你窒息
我会一直写
哪怕再爱我一点你就会崩溃
我们会做到的
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
噢 是你改变了我
噢 是你改变了我
噢 是你改变了我
噢 是你改变了我
是你改变了我
A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
and we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Delilah I can promise you
That by the time we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame
一千公里听上去多么遥远
但是可以坐飞机坐火车也可以坐汽车
如果没有其他办法我还可以步行到你面前
朋友们或许都会笑话我们
但我们可以一笑了之 因为我们知道
他们没人能了解这种感觉
黛丽拉我向你发誓
当我们度过了这一切
世界将再不一样
而这一切皆归因于你
Hey there Delilah
You be good and don't you miss me
Two more years and you'll be done with school
And I'll be making history like I do
You'll know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah here's to you
This ones for you
嘿黛丽拉你好吗
你要乖乖的 你想我吗
再过两年你就可以毕业了
我将创造历史 就像我正在做的
你要知道这都是因为你
我们能做到想做的一切
嘿黛丽拉你好吗 敬你一杯
把这首歌送给你
