 I Don’t Wanna Live Forever” By ZAYN, Taylor Swift




Lyrics
Been sitting eyes wide open behind these four walls, hoping you'd call
望眼欲穿的等著你的來電
It's just a cruel existence like there's no point hoping at all
毫無指望是殘酷的事實
Baby, baby, I feel crazy, up all night, all night and every day
我要瘋了 徹夜失眠 每日每夜
Give me something, oh, but you say nothing
說些甚麼吧 你卻說沒事
What is happening to me?
我到底怎麼了?
I don't wanna live forever, cause I know I'll be living in vain 
我活不下去了 因為我的生活已毫無意義
And I don't wanna fit wherever
我不想要四處迎合
I just wanna keep calling your name until you come back home
我只想不斷呼喚你的名字直到你回來
I just wanna keep calling your name until you come back home
我只想不斷呼喚你的名字直到你回來
I just wanna keep calling your name until you come back home
我只想不斷呼喚你的名字直到你回來
I'm sitting eyes wide open and I got one thing stuck in my mind  
我望眼欲穿的坐著 有件事我想不透
Wondering if I dodged a bullet or just lost the love of my life
想著我是逃過一劫還是失去了此生的摯愛
Baby, baby, I feel crazy, up all night, all night and every day
我要瘋了 徹夜失眠 每日每夜
I gave you something, but you gave me nothing
我給了你所有 你卻無以回報
What is happening to me?
我到底怎麼了?
I don't wanna live forever, cause I know I'll be living in vain 
我活不下去了 因為我的生活已毫無意義
And I don't wanna fit wherever
我不想要四處迎合
I just wanna keep calling your name until you come back home
我只想不斷呼喚你的名字直到你回來
I just wanna keep calling your name until you come back home
我只想不斷呼喚你的名字直到你回來
I just wanna keep calling your name until you come back home
我只想不斷呼喚你的名字直到你回來
I've been looking sad in all the nicest places
即使身在美景 我仍提不起笑容
Baby, baby, I feel crazy
我要瘋了
I see you around in all these empty faces
我望向任何一張陌生臉孔都只看見你的面容
up all night, all night and every day
徹夜失眠 每日每夜
I've been looking sad in all the nicest places
即使身在美景 我仍提不起笑容
Give me something, oh, but you say nothing
說些甚麼吧 你卻說沒事
Now I'm in a cab, I tell 'em where your place is
我搭上計程車 前往你的住所
What is happening to me?
我到底怎麼了?
I don't wanna live forever, cause I know I'll be living in vain 
我活不下去了 因為我的生活已毫無意義
And I don't wanna fit wherever
我不想要四處迎合
I just wanna keep calling your name until you come back home
我只想不斷呼喚你的名字直到你回來
I just wanna keep calling your name until you come back home
我只想不斷呼喚你的名字直到你回來
I just wanna keep calling your name until you come back home

I just wanna keep calling your name until you come back home
我只想不斷呼喚你的名字直到你回來
until you come back home
直到你回來
