Just to see you smile
You always had an eye for things that glittered
But I was far from bein made of gold
I dont know how that I scraped up the money
I just never could quite tell you no
Just like when you were leaving Amarillo
To take that new job in Tennessee
你为看见你微笑
你对闪光之物情有独钟
但是我不是金子族
我不知道怎样积累钱财
我只是无法轻轻地告诉你不行
就像当你离开阿马里洛(美国城市)
而接受田纳西的新工作一样
And I quit mine so we could be together
I can’t forget the way you looked at me
Just to see you smile
I’d do anything
我放弃了我的工作,如此我们便能相守
我无法忘记你凝视我的样子
只为君一笑,我愿倾之一切
That you wanted me to
And all is said and done
I’d never count the cost
It’s worth all that’s lost
你想要我做的
已经说过和已经做过的
我从不会计较得失
这一切付出都值得
Just to see you smile
只为博君一笑
When you said time was all you really needed
I walked away and let you have your space
Cuz leaving didn’t hurt me near as badly
当你说你需要的便是时间
我走开,让你有自己的空间
因为离开和糟糕地接近你同样令我受伤
As the tears I saw rolling down your face
And yesterday I knew just what you wanted
When you came walking up to me with him
So I told you that I was happy for you
And given the chance I’d lie again
just to see your smile
I’d do anything
我看见眼泪从你脸庞花落
我知道昨天就是你所需要的
当你带着他向我走近
我告诉你我为你开心
那是我又一次说谎
只为博君一笑
我愿倾之一切
That you wanted me to
And all is said and done
I’d never count the cost
It’s worth all that’s lost
Just to see you smile
你想要我做的
已经说过和已经做过的
我都不会计较付出
这一切付出都值得
只为博君一笑
