Sometimes the snow comes down in June
Sometimes the sun goes 'round the moon
I see the passion in your eyes
Sometimes it's all a big surprise
有时会六月飞雪
有时太阳会绕着月亮运转
我看到你眼中的热情
有时那让人大感意外
'Cause there was a time when all I did was wish
You'd tell me this was love
It's not the way I hoped or have I planned
But somehow it's enough
因为曾有一段时间，我不断祈求
你会告诉我这就是爱
那不是我预期或计划的方式
但那已经够了
And now we're standing face to face
Isn't this world a crazy place
Just when I thought our chance had passed
You go and save the best for last
此刻，我们面对面站着
世界真是疯狂
就在我以为我俩的机会已杳
你却将最好的留在了最后
All of the nights you came to me
When some silly girls had set you free
You wondered how you'd make it through
I wondered what was wrong with you
那些夜晚，你来到我身边
其实一些傻女孩已经让你感到了自由
你想知道自己是熬过来的
我却想知道你到底出了什么问题
Cause how could you give your love to someone else
And share your dreams with me
Sometimes the very thing you're looking for
Is the one thing you can't see
Sometimes the very thing you're looking for
Is the one thing you can't see
因为，你怎能把爱给了别人
又和我一起分享梦想
有时你寻觅的特别事物
往往是你视而不见
有时你寻找的那个东西
往往是你视而不见的
Sometimes the snow comes down in June
Sometimes the sun goes 'round the moon
Just when I thought our chance had passed
You go and save the best for last
六月有时会下雪
太阳有时会绕着月亮运转
就在我以为我俩的机会已杳
你却将最好的留在最后
