Gravity-Sara Bareilles

英文歌词：

Something always brings me back to you.
It never takes too long.
No matter what I say or do I'll still feel you here 'til the moment I'm gone.
You hold me without touch.
You keep me without chains.
I never wanted anything so much than to drown in your love and not feel your rain.
CHORUS
Set me free, leave me be. I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity¹.
Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be.
But you're on to me and all over me.
When I thought that I was strong.
But you touch me for a little while and all my fragile² strength is gone.
CHORUS
Set me free, leave me be. I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be.
But you're on to me and all over me.
I live here on my knees as I try to make you see that you're everything I think I need here on the ground.
But you're neither friend nor foe³ though I can't seem to let you go.
The one thing that I still know is that you're keeping me down

悠悠的钢琴声和提琴相互应和着.
有一点淡淡的忧伤, 然而歌曲的结尾給人以力量和勇气~
You hold me without touch.
You keep me without chains.
这是一种想挣脱却又被困在愛里的无力...
我想, 许多时候愛就是这样矛盾~
我们因为愛而走到一起. 可最终困住彼此的, 也是这无可救药的愛.
所以放手或许不失为一种解脱的法则.
