时间：2018-11-29 作者：英语课 分类：听英文歌曲解析歌词
水果姐Katy Perry所演唱的单曲"The One That Got 1 Away/离我而去的人"由包括Katy在内的三个人共同撰写，收录在Katy Perry 第二张主流厂牌专辑《Teenage Dream》中中。它在2011年10月4日作为专辑的第六支单曲发行。这是一首讲述旧情人的中速流行民谣，Katy表示“当你向一个人承诺永远后却没有去信守诺言，这是一个苦乐参半的故事。”唯美的色调烘托着一个人寻找真爱的的寂寞，动听的旋律仿佛在倾诉着那些不为人知的情感伤痛。可以说Katy Perry在演绎着一场穿越时空却未能抓住的爱情。
Summer after high school when we first met
We make-out in your Mustang to Radiohead
And on my 18th Birthday
We got matching tattoos
Used to steal your parents' liquor
And climb to the roof
Talk about our future
Like we had a clue
Never planned that one day
I'd be losing you
In another life
I would be your girl
We keep all our promises
Be us against the world
In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say
You were the one that got away
The one that got away
I was June and you were my Johnny Cash
Never one without the other We made a pact
Sometimes when I miss you
I put those records on (whoa)
Someone said you had your tattoo removed
Saw you downtown singing the Blues
It's time to face the music
I'm no longer your muse
All this money can't buy me a time machine (No)
Can't replace you with a million rings (No)
I shoulda told you what you meant to me (Whoa)
Cause now I pay the price
我们相遇在高中毕业的那年夏天
在你的野马车里我们认识无线电波迷的对方
在我18岁生日那天
我们一起纹上了情侣纹身
曾经偷过你爸妈的酒
爬上车顶
谈论我们的未来
仿佛我们真的能预见未来
那时从未想过
有一天我会失去你
换种生活
我将是你的女孩
我们信守承诺
活出自我，与世界为敌
另一种生活
我会让你留下
所以我不会说
你是离开我的那个人
离我而去的人
我希望我是JUNE，你是我的Johnny Cash
我们盟下誓约，不离不弃
当我想你了，就放放这些唱片
有人说你把我们的纹身弄掉了
看到你在闹市区唱着蓝调
是该面对你的音乐了
我不再是你的女神了
再多的钱也买不到时间机器
再多的戒指也唤不回你
我本该告诉你，你对我意义重大
现在，我的付出代价了
