歌曲歌詞
英文
It's 2am in your car
Windows down, you pass my street
The memories start
You say it's in the past
you drive straight ahead
You're thinking that I hate you now
'Cause you still don't know what I never said
I wish you would come back
Wish I never hung up the phone like I did
I wish you knew that
I'll never forget you as long as I live
And I wish you were right here
Right now, it's all good
I wish you would
It's 2am in my room
Headlights pass the window pane
I think of you
We're a crooked love
In a straight line down
Makes you want to run and hide
Then it makes you turn right back around
I wish you would come back
Wish I never hung up the phone like I did
I wish you knew that
I'll never forget you as long as I live
And I wish you were right here, right now
It's all good, I wish you would
I wish we could go back
And remember what we were fighting for
And I wish you knew that
I miss you too much to be mad anymore
And I wish you were right here, right now
It's all good, I wish you would
I, I, I, I, I, I
I wish, I wish, I
I, I, I, I, I, I
I wish, I wish, I
I, I, I, I, I, I
I wish, I wish, I
I, I, I, I, I, I
I wish, I wish, I
You always knew how to push my buttons
You give me everything or nothing
This mad, mad love makes you come running
To stand back where you stood
I wish you would,I wish you would
2am, here we are
See your face, hear my voice in the dark
We're a crooked love in a straight line down
Makes you want to run and hide
But it made us turn right back around
I wish you would come back
Wish I never hung up the phone like I did
I wish you knew that
I never forget you as long as I'm live
And I wish you were right here, right now
It's all good, I wish you would
I wish you would come back
Wish I never hung up the phone like I did
I wish you knew that
I never forget you as long as I'm live
And I wish you were right here, right now
It's all good, I wish you would
I wish we could go back
And remember what we were fighting for
And I wish you knew that
I miss you too much to be mad anymore
And I wish you were right here, right now
It's all good, I wish you would
You always knew how to push my buttons
You give me everything or nothing
This mad, mad love makes you come running
Stand back where you stood
I wish you would
I wish you would
I wish you would
I wish you would
I, I, I, I, I, I
I wish, I wish, I
I, I, I, I, I, I
I wish, I wish, I
I wish you would

譯文
凌晨兩點了,坐在你的車裡
搖下車窗,正經過我家所在的那條街
回憶慢慢湧現
你說那都是過去的事了
一直向前開
你覺得我現在一定很恨你
因為你不知道,我從沒這么說過
我希望你會回來
希望自己當初沒有就那么掛掉了電話
希望你能知道
只要我還活著,就不會忘記你
真希望你現在在這裡
那該多好
真的希望你
凌晨兩點,在自己的房間裡
頂燈透過玻璃窗照下一束束光芒
我在想念你啊
我們的愛,其實很扭曲
愛意就那么直線下降
讓你想逃跑躲起來
但它讓我們有了回心轉意的念頭
我真的希望你能回來
希望自己當時沒有就那么把電話掛掉
希望你能知道
只要我還活著,就不會忘記你
真的希望你現在在這裡
那該多好
真的希望
希望我們能回到從前
還記得我們為愛抗爭的那段日子
希望你能知道
我瘋狂地想念著你
真希望你現在在這裡
那該多好
真的希望你能知道
我希望
我希望
你總是能知道我所有的弱點
你給了我一切,也不過是一場空
這場讓你瘋狂衝撞的瘋狂戀愛啊
真希望你能回到原點
我希望你會
希望你會
希望你會
凌晨兩點,我們就在這裡
昏暗中,我看到你的臉龐
聽到自己的聲音
我們的愛,其實很扭曲
愛意就那么直線下降
讓你想逃跑躲起來
但它讓我們有了回心轉意的念頭
我真的希望你能回來
希望自己當時沒有就那么把電話掛掉
希望你能知道
只要我還活著,就不會忘記你
真的希望你現在在這裡
那該多好
真的希望你能知道
希望我們能回到從前
希望你能知道
只要我還活著,就不會忘記你
真的希望你現在在這裡
那該多好
真的希望你能知道
還記得我們為愛抗爭的那段日子
希望你能知道
我瘋狂地想念著你
那該多好
真的希望你能知道
你總是能知道我所有的弱點
你給了我一切,也不過是一場空
這場讓你瘋狂衝撞的瘋狂戀愛啊
回到原地
我希望你會
我希望你會
我希望你會
我希望
我希望你會
歌曲鑑賞
《I Wish You Would》則完全是80年代的時髦舞曲,很像是復古組合Haim的作品。從這兩首歌曲的精良編排也可以看出Indie樂隊出身的Jack Antonoff格調還是要高於一般的流行音樂人的。
《I Wish You Would》在三段主歌中,分別用三種不同場景的對比以及車、窗、街道的意向組合,來展現出她對逝去愛情的神傷。
語音備忘錄
This is another way I've written songs recently.This is a song I did with Jack Antonoff, and Jack is one of my friends and so were hanging out and he pulled out his phone and goes "I made this amazing track the other day.It's so cool, I love these guitar sounds."And he played it for me and immediately I could hear this finished song in my head, and I just said "Please, please let me have that.Let me play with is, send it to me".
And so he sent it to me and I was on tour and this was me playing the track on my laptop recording me singing the vocal into my phone and it ended up being a song called "I Wish You Would", because Jack wrote back and said "I love that".So this is another way of writing, it's writing to track:Okay so this is an idea called "I Wish You Would".It's kind of about this guy who's like, he's driving down the street at the middle of the night and he passes his ex-girlfriend's house and it's like, he thinks she hate him, but she's still in love with him, very dramatic.This track is sick, hope you like this.It's 2 am, in your car,Windows down, past my street the memories start,It's in the past.You drive straight ahead.You thinking that I hate you now Cause you stll don't know what I never said.I wish you would come back Wish I never hung up the phone like I did.I wish you knew that I never forget you,you were right here right now,it's all goodI wish you would.Do you like it!?
