She put him out like the burnin' end of a midnight cigarette
她撲滅他的愛 像熄滅午夜盡頭燃燒的煙蒂
She broke his heart he spent his whole life tryin' to forget
她傷了他的心 成就他畢生難以釋懷的傷痛
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
我們望著他 飲盡悲傷 一次一次 一點一滴
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
但他無法讓自己 足夠沉醉 以至將她遺忘
Until the night
直到 那個夜晚
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
他端起酒瓶飲頸而下 並對著自己扣響了扳機
And finally drank away her memory
終於將屬於她的記憶全部喝完
Life is short but this time it was bigger
生命短暫 這一次卻如此強大
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
超越了他仰賴著立足於世的力量
We found him with his face down in the pillow
我們終於找到他 他卻已將自己深深埋在枕頭裏
With a note that said I'll love her till I die
臨別遺言 一紙短箋：我愛她直至生命結束
And when we buried him beneath the willow
當我們將他下葬 合上了柳木棺蓋
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby
天使們唱起 威士卡安魂曲
The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
流言飛傳 但沒有人知道 她心裏無限的自責
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
年復一年 她試圖隱藏 那已融入呼吸的威士卡味道
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
她終於飲盡悲傷 一次一次 一點一滴
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind
但她無法讓自己 足夠沉醉 以至將他遺忘
Until the night
直到 那個夜晚
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
她端起酒瓶飲頸而下 並對著自己扣響了扳機
And finally drank away his memory
終於將屬於他的記憶全部喝完
Life is short but this time it was bigger
生命短暫 這一次卻如此強大
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
超越了她仰賴著立足於世的力量
We found her with her face down in the pillow
我們終於找到了她 她卻已將自己深深埋在枕頭裏
Clinging to his picture for dear life
臨別陪伴 一張他的照片 紀念這珍貴一生
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
當我們將她下葬 緊挨著他 合上了柳木棺蓋
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby
