《What are words》
填词 Rodney Jerkins
歌曲原唱 Chris Medina
Anywhere you are, I am near
不管你在哪,我都会与你同在
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
不管你去哪,我都将与你同行
Anytime you whisper my name, you'll see
只要轻唤我的名,你就会看到
Where every single promise I keep
我是如何信守对你的每个承诺
Cause what kind of guy would I be
因为若我在你最需要时离开
If I was to leave when you need me most
那样我还算什么男人
What are words
何为承诺
If you really don't mean them
如果只是随口说说
When you say them
那不算承诺
What are words
何为承诺
If they're only for good times
如果不能患难与共
Then they done
那不算承诺
When it's love
当爱至情浓处时
Yeah, you say them out-loud those words
你大声喊出自己的心声
They never go away
那些话,永远都不会褪色
They live on, even when we're gone
即使海枯石烂,它们也会一直存在
And I know an angel was sent just for me
我知道,你是上苍赠予我的天使
And I know I'm meant to be where I am
我知道,这是命运的安排
And I'm gonna be standing right beside her tonight
今晚我会守在你身旁
And I'm gonna be by your side
我会一直守护在你身边
I would never leave when she needs me most
当你最需要我的时候,我绝不会离你而去
What are words
何为承诺
If you really don't mean them
如果只是随口说说
When you say them
那不算承诺
What are words
何为承诺
If they're only for good times
如果不能患难与共
Then they done
那不算承诺
When it's love
当爱至情浓处时
Yeah, you say them out-loud those words
你大声喊出自己的心声
They never go away
那些话,永远都不会褪色
They live on, even when we're gone
即使海枯石烂,它们也会一直存在
Anywhere you are, I am near
不管你在哪,我都会与你同在
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
不管你去哪,我都将与你同行
And I'm gonna be here forever more
我将会永远在你身旁
Every single promise I keep
信守对你的每个承诺
Cause what kind of guy would I be
因为若我在你最需要时离开
If I was to leave when you need me most
那样我还算什么男人
I'm forever keeping my angel close
我会永远守护在我的天使身边
