歌詞で使われている英語
[Verse 1]
I was walking down the street the other day
Tryna distract myself
But then I see your face
Oh wait, that's someone else
Tryna play it coy
Tryna make it disappear
But just like the battle of Troy
There's nothing subtle here
In my room there's a king size space
Bigger than it used to be
If you want you can rent that place
Call me an amenity
Even if it's in my dreams
- coy - 恥ずかしそうなふりをする、いやに無口な、はにかみやの、いやに口を割らない
- disappear - 見えなくなる，姿を消す(⇔appear)
- subtle - 微妙な，とらえがたい; 名状しがたい，いわく言いがたい
この間、ストリートを歩いていたの
気を紛らわせようと
でもあなたの顔を見たの
でも待って あれは他の誰か
恥ずかしそうにして
なにもなかったように装って
でもそれはトロイの戦争みたい
ここではすべてが明らか
私の部屋にはキングサイズベッドがおけるくらいの広さが
前よりも広くなったみたい
もし借りたいなら この部屋を貸してもいいのよ
アメニティがいるなら電話して
それが夢だとしても
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh you're taking up a fraction of my mind
Ooooh every time I watch you serpentine[Chorus]
Oh I'm tryin', I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
Oh tryin', I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
Not to think about you
No, no, no, no
Not to think about you
No, no, no, no
Oh I'm tryin', I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
Oh tryin', I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
Not to give in to you
No, no, no, no
Not to give in to you
No, no, no, no[Post-Chorus]
With my feelings on fire
Guess I'm a bad liar
- give in to - ~に負ける
あなたは私の心の破片を拾い上げようとして
??
あなたのことを考えないようにして
考えないように....
あなたに負けないように、負けないようにして…
負けないように,,,,
この私の気持ちが燃えている
私は悪い嘘つきかもね
[Verse 2]
I see how your attention builds
It's like looking in a mirror
Your touch like a happy pill
But still all we do is fear
What could possibly happen next?
Can we focus on the love?
Paint my kiss across your chest
Be the art, I'll be the brush
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh you're taking up a fraction of my mind
Ooooh every time I watch you serpentine
[Chorus]
Oh I'm tryin', I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
Oh tryin', I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
Not to think about you
No, no, no, no
Not to think about you
No, no, no, no
Oh I'm tryin', I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
Oh tryin', I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
Not to give in to you
No, no, no, no
Not to give in to you
No, no, no, no
[Post-Chorus]
With my feelings on fire
Guess I'm a bad liar
[Bridge]
And oh baby let's make reality, actuality, a reality
Oh baby let's make reality, actuality, a reality
