《If I Have To Go》（如果我必须离开）


And if I have to go, will you remember me?
如果我必须走，你还会记得我吗？

Will you find someone else, while I'm away?
你还会不会找到别的人，在我不在的时候？

There's nothing for me, in this world full of strangers
这个世界对我来说，不过就是充满过客

It's all someone else's idea
不过是充满“别人”的想法，人云亦云

I don't belong here, and you can't go with me
我并不属于这里，而你也不能随我而去

You'll only slow me down
你只会缓住我离去的步伐

Until I send for you, don't wear your hair that way
在我回来找你之前，不要再这样梳你的头发

If you cannot be true, I'll understand
不过如果你不能变得真实，我也会理解

Tell all the others, you'll hold in your arms
告诉所有人，你会自己撑住

That I said I'd come back for you
你会把我说的“我会为了你回来”守在怀中

I'll leave my jacket to keep you warm
我留下我的外套给你保暖

That's all that I can do
这是我现在唯一能做的事

And if I have to go, will you remember me?
如果我必须走，你还会记得我吗？

Will you find someone else, while I'm away?
在我离去之时，你还会不会爱上别的人？
