Happy New Year

Happy new year

Did the ironing in a cowboy hat
Felt as fresh as the paint in this new flat
I will never tell you what to do
(我不會告訴妳該怎麼做)
Have ambition simply to see things through
(本來就該追求看清事情的)

Did you know I could be a lot of fun
(你知道我可以很有趣的)
I'm aware that friendship can die young
(我也知道友情是可以很快消失的)
As the glow from the street light bled
Down the Langlands Road we set off the best of friends

I know where I stand
(我知道我的立場)
I don't need you to hold my hand
(我也不需要你握著我的手)

Well, I've tried to get along with you
(恩, 我試著和妳和睦相處)
I have asked myself “What are we gonna do?”
(我也問過自己"我們該怎麼辦?")
I'm coming round to take a stand
(我想清了我的立場後,)
Going to put us together with glue or an elastic band
(決定要用膠水或橡皮筋把我們兩綁住)

I know where I stand
I don't need you to hold my hand

I am softer than my face would suggest
(我其實比我看起來還要溫柔)
At times like these I'm at my lowest ebb
(像現在這時候, 我正在最低潮)
Now I can confide in you
(現在我可以對你信任)
If I cry to set the mood oh please could you cry too
(如果我哭是為了製造氣氛, 請你是否也可以一起哭呢?)

Happy New Year
(新年快樂)
You are my only vice
(你是我唯一的代替)
Happy New Year
What if we compromised?
(我們妥協了什麼呢?)
Happy New Year
I am open

Do you have to wear a frown like that?
(你一定要這樣滿臉不悅嗎?)
You could have hit me with a baseball bat
(你大可以用棒球棒打我的)

Do you want to? (Yes I do)
Do you have to? (So do you)
Do you want to? (So do you)
