寧願有夢

Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I took the supermarket flowers from the windowsill

我拿下了窗台上那些超市裡買的花束

I threw the day old tea from the cup

倒掉了泡在杯裡一整天的茶

Packed up the photo album Matthew had made

整理著Matthew親手做的相本

Memories of a life that's been loved

裡面有生命記憶 洋溢著愛

Took the get well soon cards and stuffed animals

收好祝康復的卡片和許多填充玩偶

Poured the old ginger beer down the sink

也把薑汁啤酒倒進水槽中

Dad always told me, "Don't you cry when you're down"

父親總是跟我說「不要哭，當你心裏難過」

But mum, there's a tear every time that I blink

但媽呀，我每眨眼都滴下淚水

[Pre-Chorus 1]

Oh I'm in pieces, it's tearing me up

噢，我漰潰了 心也碎了

But I know

但我知

A heart that's broke is a heart that's been loved

心會痛 是因為曾經那樣被愛過

[Chorus]

So I'll sing Hallelujah

所以我要唱哈利路亞

You were an angel in the shape of my mum

你如同天使 化做我母親的樣子

When I fell down you'd be there holding me up

當我每次跌倒 你總在我身旁扶持我

Spread your wings as you go

展開你雙翼飛去吧！

And when God takes you back

當上帝將你帶回

We'll say Hallelujah

我們將歌頌哈利路亞

You're home

你已回家了

[Verse 2]

Fluffed the pillows, made the beds, stacked the chairs up

拍拍枕頭 整理床鋪 將椅子都疊整齊

Folded your nightgowns neatly in a case

也把你的睡袍折好收拾放入箱裏

John says he'd drive then put his hand on my cheek

John說他來開車 然後用手輕拂我臉旁

And wiped a tear from the side of my face

為我拭去臉頰淚水

[Pre-Chorus 2]

I hope that I see the world as you did

我多希望我能看見你眼中所見的世界

'Cause I know

因我知

A life with love is a life that's been lived

擁有愛的人生 才是真正活過的人生

[Chorus]

So I'll sing Hallelujah

所以我要唱哈利路亞

You were an angel in the shape of my mum

你如同天使 化做我母親的樣子

When I fell down you'd be there holding me up

當我每次跌倒 你總在我身旁扶持我

Spread your wings as you go

展開你雙翼飛去吧！

And when God takes you back

當上帝將你帶回

We'll say Hallelujah

我們將歌頌哈利路亞

You're home

你已回家了

[Outro/Chorus]

Hallelujah

哈利路亞

You were an angel in the shape of my mum

你如同天使 化人十我母親的樣子

You got to see the person I have become

看我已蛻變 長大成人

Spread your wings and I know

張開雙翼 我知道

That when God took you back

當上帝將你帶回的那一刻

He said Hallelujah

祂說哈利路亞

You're home

你已回家了
