i close both locks below the window

我將窗緣的鎖扣上

i close both blinds and turn away

拉上布廉然後轉身

sometimes solutions aren’t so simple

有時答案不是這麼簡單

sometimes goodbye’s the only way

有時說再見是唯一方式



and the sun will set for you

太陽會為你西沉

the sun will set for you

太陽會為你西沉

and the shadow of the day

而這白晝的黑影

will enbrace the world in grey

把整個世界擁抱在晦暗中

and the sun will set for you

太陽會為你西沉



in cards and flowers on your window

在你窗前的花和卡片裡

your friends all plead for you to stay

滿是朋友們要你留下的字句

sometimes beginnings aren’t so simple

有時凡事起頭難

sometimes goodbye’s the only way

有時說再見是唯一的方式



and the shadow after day

而這白晝的黑影

will embrace the world in grey

把整個世界擁抱在晦暗中

and the sun will set for you

太陽會為你西沉







* The keyboard loop in " Shadow Of The Day "

went through many different changes during the song’s creation.

Dozens of options were created on piano ,

acoustic guitar , marimba , xylophone ,

and even electric banjo before finally writing the reversed/

edited keyboard version that appears here .

在創作這首歌時,鍵盤音色的結構有著不同階段的改變,

在最後版本確認之前,嘗試過包含鋼琴.空心吉他.

馬林巴琴.木琴.電五弦琴....等不同的音色,

這首歌是團員們公認最難完成的一首歌曲,

整首歌的節奏和心跳頻率幾乎一樣,

曲式流暢寬廣.
