我早該放下手中的劍，順從命運。
I lay down my sword for fate.
但現在說什麼都太遲，都太遲了。
‘Cause it’s too little, way too late.

[Verse 1]
The whole town is talking 'bout how you've fallen in love
整個小鎮都在談論你墜入愛河的消息
I read in the papers he's someone that girls dream about
我在報紙上看到，他就是每個女孩夢想中的對象
Some kind of ruler on top of a kingdom
像個統治王國的君王
I'm just a jester, I'll never be him
而我只是個小丑，永遠成不了他
Last night you called to me
昨晚你對著我呼喚
It almost killed me
那一刻差點要了我的命
[Chorus]
To hear you scream my name
我聽見你喊著我的名字
Your smile still kills the same
你的笑容依舊讓我心痛如初
I almost turned around
我差點就回頭
You chased me to the ground
你追著我倒在地上
You asked me how I've been
你問我最近好嗎
But how do I begin
但我該怎麼開口
To tell you I should've chased
告訴你，我當初就該追著你跑
You 'cross every single state?
跨過每一個州也在所不惜？
I lay down my sword for fate
我早該放下手中的劍，順從命運
'Cause it's too little, way too late
但現在說什麼都太遲，都太遲了
[Verse 2]
I didn't need the reminder of things I've done wrong
我不需要被提醒，自己犯下的錯
Of promises broken, fragility hidden in song
那些破碎的承諾，藏在歌裡的脆弱
Guess that we're soulmates in different lifetimes
也許我們在不同的時空裡是靈魂伴侶
What if you leave him? Throw me a lifeline
如果你離開他，能不能拋根救命繩給我？
I know that you're happy
我知道你現在很幸福
But it just killed me
但那一刻真的讓我很心碎
[Chorus]
To hear you scream my name
聽見你喊著我的名字
A clear fucking X-ray
就像清晰的X光掃描
Of if I'd stuck around
如果當初我沒有離開
I swear to God, I almost drowned
我對天發誓，我差點就淹沒在那糟糕的情緒裡
You asked me how I've been
你問我最近好嗎
But how could I begin
但我該怎麼開口
To tell you I should've chased you
告訴你，我當初就該追著你跑
I should be who you're engaged to?
我該是你現在訂婚的那個對象
[Bridge]
Lost my fight with fate
我輸給了命運
A tug-of-war of leave and stay
這是一場拉鋸戰，是該走或該留
I give in, I abdicate
我認輸，我放棄王位
I lay my sword down anyway
我還是放下了我的劍
I'll see you at Heaven's gate
也許在天堂之門我們會再次相見
'Cause it's too little, way too late
但現在，一切都太遲了，真的太遲了
[Outro]
I'll toast outside your wedding day
我會在你婚禮外舉杯祝福
Whisper vows I'll never say to you
低語那些，我永遠無法對你說出口的誓言
'Cause it's too little, all too late
因為這一切都太遲了，都太遲了
