*大部份人一生中都曾嚐過失戀滋味,與心愛的戀人分開一段時間
後發現復合無望下都會考慮為自己設下停損點,不能漫無止境的
空等下去,如歌詞所述:
Now that you're gone, I hope I learn to live
again in time
(如今你已離開,我希望我能及時重新振作、重過新生活!)
*雖然很喜歡對方,為免越陷越深,都會強迫自己忘記對方的好:
In time, I may forget your smile,
And in a while, I may forget I love you,
In time, I may forget my tears,
And through the years, I may forget I need you
(我要自己馬上忘記妳甜美的笑容,忘記我曾深愛過妳,
忘記我所流的眼淚,也忘記自己曾多麼需要妳!)
*然後夢想著新戀情的出現以平衡一下被拋棄的心情:
In time, maybe there'll be a new love to love me,
I can't go on belonging to the past
(或許很快新的戀情會出現,
我不能永遠活在過去.....)
*但最後最後...欲捨還留...
But I pray that one day in time,
you'll come back and be mine!
繞了一大圈,最後,還是祈禱有一天妳回來並為我所擁有!
