音乐咖啡厅:No Regrets一首励志鼓舞人心的歌曲

来自英伦天王 Robbie Williams 罗比·威廉姆斯的心灵之音

 No Regrets

 Taken From Ive Been Expecting You
 (Robbie Williams/Guy Chambers)

 Notes: After the success of Angels, Rob felt confident enough to approach his record company and ask to work with The Pet Shop Boys, this song was the result.

 Tell me a story
 Where we all change
 And we'd live our lives together
 And not estranged
 I didnt lose my mind it was mine to give away
 Couldnt stay to watch me cry
 You didnt have the time
 So I softly¹ slip away...
 No regrets - they dont work
 No regrets - they only hurt
 Sing me a love song, drop me a line
 Suppose its just a point of view
 But they tell me Im doing fine
 I know from the outside
 We looked good for eachother
 Felt things were going wrong
 When you didnt like my mother
 I dont want to hate but thats
 All youve left me with
 A bitter aftertaste and a fantasy of
 How we all could live
 No regrets - they dont work
 No regrets - they only hurt
 (Weve been told you stay up late)
 I know theyre still talking
 (Youre far too short to carry weight)
 The demons² in your head
 (Return the videos theyre late)
 If I could just stop hating you(Goodbye)
 Id feel sorry for us instead
 Remember the photographs (insane)
 The ones where we all laugh (so lame)
 We were having the time of our lives
 Well thank you it was a real blast
 No regrets / they dont work
 No regrets / they only hurt
 Write me a love song, drop me a line
 Suppose its just a point of view
 But they tell me Im doing fine
 Everything I wanted to be everytime I walked away
 Everytime you told me to leave I just wanted to stay
 Every time you looked at me and everytime you smiled
 I felt so vacant³ you treat me like a child
 I loved the way we used to laugh
 I loved the way we used to smile
 Often I sit down and think of you, for a while
 Then it passes by me and I think of someone else instead
 I guess the love we once had is officially dead
 Over...
