歌詞
中英&翻譯
I said remember this moment
我說過我會永遠記住這一刻
In the back of my mind
深深地銘刻在我腦海中
The time we stood with our shaking hands
那時的我們站在那裡搖擺着雙手
The crowds in stands went wild
看台的人群瘋狂起來
We were the kings and the queens
我們曾是這個世界的統治者
And they read off our names
他們呼喊着我們的名字
The night you danced like you knew our lives
夜色下你的舞步向我訴說着
Would never be the same
我們的生活會就此改寫
You held your head like a hero
你如英雄一般昂首挺胸
On a history book page
被印在史冊上
It was the end of a decade
這是一個年代的末篇
But the start of an age
卻又是一個世紀的開端
Long live the walls we crashed through
萬歲! 我們并肩穿越困難艱險
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
整個王國的光芒隻為你我閃耀
I was screaming Long live all the magic we made
我在大聲呼喊着萬歲,那些我們一起創造的奇迹
And bring on all the pretenders
讓那些小人都來吧
One day we will be remembered
總有一天我們會被世人銘記
I said remember this feeling
我說過我會記住此刻的感受
I pass the pictures around
我翻閱着這些照片
Of all the years that we stood there on the sidelines
照片裡的我們站在角落裡
Wishing for right now
祈禱着這一刻的降臨
We are the kings and the queens
我們是這個世界的統治者
You traded your baseball cap for a crown
你用你的棒球帽換來了一頂王冠
When they gave us our trophies
當他們授予我們榮譽時
And we held them up for our town
我們将它高高舉過頭頂
And the cynics were outraged
憤世嫉俗的人暴跳如雷
Screaming This is absurd!
驚聲尖叫着道這實在荒謬!
Cause for a moment a band of thieves
因為那些穿着破洞牛仔褲的小偷們
in ripped up jeans got to rule the world
曾在這個世界胡作非為
Long live the walls we crashed through
萬歲,我們并肩穿越困難艱險
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
整個王國的光芒隻為你我閃耀
I was screaming Long live all the magic we made
我大聲呼喊着萬歲,那些我們一起創造的奇迹
And bring on all the pretenders
讓那些小人都來吧
I'm not afraid
我無所畏懼
Long live all the mountains we moved
萬歲!那些我們一起挪移的山巒
I had the time of my life
在生命的時光裡
Fighting dragons with you
與你共同抗擊邪惡
I was screaming, Long live that look on your face
我大聲呼喊着,就讓那一瞬間就美好,停留在你臉上
And bring on all the pretenders
讓那些小人都來吧
One day we will be remembered
總有一天,我們會被世人銘記
Hold on to spinning around
堅持住,讓我們旋轉起舞
Confetti falls to the ground
落下缤紛的紙屑
May these memories break our fall
讓這些美好的記憶永遠留下
And you take a moment
那一刻
Promise me this:
你向我起誓:
That you'll stand by me forever
你會一直伴随着我
But if God forbid fate should step in
但如果有一天上帝阻止了命運的腳步
And force us into a goodbye
将我們的結局改寫為"再也不見"
If you have children someday
假如有一天你有了子女
When they point to the pictures
當他們指着這些照片時
Please tell them my name
請告訴他們我的名字
Tell them how the crowds went wild
告訴他們人群如何瘋狂
Tell them how I hope they shined
告訴他們我多麼希望他們能夠閃耀
Long live the walls we crashed through
萬歲!我們并肩穿越困難艱險
I had the time of my life with you
與你共同度過的那段時光
Long, long live the walls we crashed through
萬萬歲!我們并肩穿越困難艱險
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
整個王國的光芒隻為你我閃耀
And I was screaming Long live all the magic we made
我大聲呼喊着萬歲,那些我們一起創造的奇迹
And bring on all the pretenders
讓那些小人都來吧
I'm not afraid
我無所畏懼
Singing long live all the mountains we moved
歌唱着萬歲!那些我們一起挪移的山巒
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
在生命的時光裡與你共同抗擊邪惡
And long, long live the look on your face
萬萬歲!就讓那一瞬間就美好,停留在你臉上
And bring on all the pretenders
讓那些小人都來吧
One day
總有一天
We will be remembered
我們将會被世人銘記

英葡歌詞
Lembrei desse sentimento
Gritando dentro de nós
Éramos todos meninos
E em cada um vivia uma paixão
Como na cena de um filme
Vencemos pesadelos Enfrentando os dragões
Criados por nossos medos
Fruto da imaginação
De frente a uma nova era
Na onda de uma canção
Nós construímos história mente, alma e coração
Long live the walls
We crashed through
All the kingdom lights shined
Just for me and you
I was screaming long live
All the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
One day we will be remembered
I said remember this feeling
I passed the pictures around
Of all the years that we stood there
On the side-lines wishing for right now
We are the kings and the queens
You traded your baseball cap for a crown
When they gave us our trophies
And we help them up for our town
De frente a uma nova era
Na onda de uma canção
Nós construímos história mente, alma e coração
Long live the walls
We crashed through
All the kingdom lights shined
Just for me and you
I was screaming long live
All the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
I'm not afraid
Long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life
Fighting dragons with you
I was screaming long live
The look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders
One day we will be remembered
Hold on just spinning around
Confetti falls to the ground
May these memories break our fall?
Lembrei do momento
Que fiz promessa pra nós dois
Pintando o nosso destino
Puro e simples, pleno e sem fim
Que fosse assim sem um "goodbye"
Fosse pra sempre um "cheguei"
O sonho que construímos
Me vi feliz, eu te achei
Será muito mais que achar
Será muito além que pensar
Long live the walls we crashed through
I had the time of my life with you
Long, long live the walls we crashed through
All the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
And I was screaming Long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
I'm not afraid
Singing long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
And long, long live the look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders
One day
We will be remembered
