《When you say nothing at all》(一切尽在不言中)- Keith Whitley
It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart你一开口 就正合我意 这就是神奇的默契
without saying a word you can light up the dark不言一语 就足以把黑暗驱离
try as I may I could never explain我千方百计 竟也道不出这种魔力
what I hear when you don't say a thing就算静谧无言 我也能听到的天籁之语
the smile on your face lets me know that you need me你脸上的笑意 让我笃定需要我的人是你
there's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me你眼眸流转的真情 向我诉说你会不离不弃
the touch of your hand says you'll catch me wherever I fall你掌心传来的温度 会在我跌倒时把我扶起
you say it best when you say nothing at all一切尽在不言中 有此默契足矣
All day long I can hear people talking aloud整夜整日 充斥耳膜的都是人声鼎沸
but when you hold me near you drown out the crowd但当你靠近我时 万籁倾刻静寂
Old Mr. Webster could never define韦伯老先生肢哗尺(美国词典编纂家)都没法芦运说清这种感觉
what's been said between your heart and mine不知道咱们虽然身无彩凤 但却心有灵犀
the smile on your face lets me know that you need me你脸上的笑意 让我笃定需要我的人是你
there's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me你眼眸中流转的真情 向我诉说着你会不离不弃
the touch of your hand says you'll catch me wherever I fall你手掌传来的温度 会在我跌倒时把我扶起
you say it best when you say nothing at all一切尽在不言中 有此默契足矣
When You Say Nothing At All 有情何须开口言
