歌词
If this was the Cold War we could keep each other warm“
如果这是场“冷战”，我们可以温暖彼此”
I said on the first occasion that I met Marie
当我第一次见到玛丽的那天 我这样说
We were crawling through the hatch that was the missile silo door
我们一起匍匐爬过导弹发射井的舱门
And I don't think that she really thought that much of me
但我觉得她当时并未把我放在心上
I never had to learn to love her like I learned to love the Bomb
我从未学会像爱核弹那样爱过她
She just came along and started to ignore me
她就这样意外地来到我身边 却忽视我
But as we waited for the Big One
当我们一起等待着那场盛大的末世
I started singing her my songs
我开始为她唱起我的歌
And I think she started feeling something for me
我觉得她开始对我有感觉了
We passed the time with crosswords that she thought to bring inside
我们玩填字游戏来打发无聊的光阴，她说 这些词应该填进去的
What five letters spell "apocalypse" she asked me
她问我 “末世”是哪五个字母拼的
I won her over saying "W.W.I.I.I."
我试图说服她是“W.W.I.I.I”
She smiled and we both knew that she'd misjudged me
她笑，我俩都知道她刚刚误会我了
Oh Marie it was so easy to fall in love with you
哦，玛丽，爱上你真是太容易啦
It felt almost like a home of sorts or something
就像是 一种家的感觉
And you would keep the warhead missile silo good as new
你会忙碌着，让我们的导弹发射井保持完好如新
And I'd watch you with my thumb above the button
我会把拇指悬放在那个按钮上方，一边看着你
Then one night you found me in my army issue cot
后来有天晚上 你在我的陆军小床上找到我
And you told me of your flash of inspiration
告诉我 你的灵感闪现
You said fusion was the broken heart that's lonely's only thought
你说 融合是一颗残缺的心里孤独的唯一念头
And all night long you drove me wild with your equations
那整晚 你的方程式快把我逼疯了
Oh Marie do you remember all the time we used to take
哦，玛丽，你还记得我们过去在一起的时光吗
We'd make our love and then ransack the rations
我们制造着我们绝美的爱情 然后再四处翻寻口粮
I think about you leaving now and the avalanche cascades
然而我一想道你现在就要走了，我的内心犹如雪崩倾泻
And my eyes get washed away in chain reactions
我的视线，在你引发的反应链里，一点点被冲刷殆尽
Oh Marie if you would stay then we could stick pins in the map
哦，玛丽，如果你留下，我们还能一起周游世界
Of all the places where you thought that love would be found
一起去那些 你说可以找到爱的地方
But I would only need one pin to show where my heart's at
但是其实我只需要去一个地方，安放我的心
In a top secret location three hundred feet under the ground
我想，那应该是一个在地下三英里的 最隐蔽的地方
We could hold each other close and stay up every night
如果你留下，我们还能整夜把彼此相拥
Looking up into the dark like it's the night sky
一起凝视黑暗 仿若凝视夜空
And pretend this giant missile is an old oak tree instead
假装我们身旁的导弹啊 是一棵古橡树
And carve our name in hearts into the warhead
然后在心里，把我们的名字刻在弹头上
Oh Marie there's something tells me things just won't work out above
哦，玛丽，我预感这些事情始终是行不通的
That our love would live a half-life on the surface
我预感 我们的爱情会有表面的半衰期
So at night while you are sleeping
所以每晚你熟睡后
I hold you closer just because
我会紧紧拥住你
As our time grows short I get a little nervous
因为我们的时间不多了，而我害怕失去你
I think about the Big One, W.W.I.I.I.
我想着那场所谓的末世，“W.W.I.I.I”
Would we ever really care the world had ended
我们难道会在乎世界毁灭么
You could hold me here forever like you're holding me tonight
我唯一知道的是 你会永远地 像今晚这样紧紧拥抱我
I look at that great big red button and I'm tempted
所以当我再一次看向那个猩红的按钮时，我承认我被蛊惑了
