IF I NEVER KNEW YOU from All For Love

If I Never Knew You


If I never knew you, 如果我不曾认识你
if I never felt this love 如果我不曾爱过你
I would have no inkling of 生命有多可贵
how precious life can be 我丝毫没有体会

And if I never held you, 如果我不曾抱紧你
I would never have a clue 我缺失的部分
How at last I'd find in you, 我永远不会知晓
the missing part of me. 最终会在你那里找到

In this world so full of fear, 这世界充满恐惧，愤怒和谎言
full of rage and lies 而在你眼中，真实清晰可辨
I can see the truth so clear, 你的眼睛
in your eyes, so dry your eyes 清澈 淡然

And I'm so grateful to you, 如果我不曾认识你
I'd have lived my whole life through 虽然活着却失去意义
Lost forever, 我会迷失在时间的隧道
if I never knew you. 而认识你，真好

If I never knew you, 如果我不曾认识你
I'd be safe but half as real 我会活得安稳 却不完整
Never knowing I could feel a love 永远不会感受到一份爱
so strong and true 如此强烈 真挚

I thought our love would be so beautiful 我曾相信我们的爱情会很美
Somehow we make the whole world bright 美得照亮世界，点亮黑暗
I never knew that fear and hate could be so strong 却不知恐惧和仇恨这么强
All they’d leave us were these whispers in the night 把我们困在这黑夜里
But still my heart is saying we were right. 流言四起 而我们的心不曾怀疑

There is no moment I regret 我从未后悔
Since the moment that we met 自从遇见你的那时起
If our time has gone too fast 纵然在一起的时间过得太快
I've lived at last... 却支撑我活到现在

And if I never knew you 如果我不曾认识你
I'd have lived my whole life through 虽然活着却失去意义
Empty as the sky 生命像天空一样空白
Never knowing why 却永远不知原因何在
Lost forever 我会迷失在时间的隧道里
If I never knew you 如果我不曾认识你

曾听到过这样一段话：20岁时，互相说“我爱你”；40岁时互相说“对不起”；60岁时互相说“不后悔”。
爱情就是在这样的激情，隐忍和坚持中走向永恒的吧……

歌太好听，忍不住翻译了歌词，英文歌词来自专辑内的歌词附页。有翻译不周之处，还请见谅。
