I'm sipping on the sounds of the afternoon,
午后的声音，我浅浅啜饮
　　When the wind blows out I'll breathe it and out again
空气停滞，我亦呼吸
　　And listen to the overture with you
和你听曾经的歌
　　One last time to sit down and watch the world in stereo
　　最后一次，背靠背，放映音响里的过去。
　　Then the chalk lines and the bass lines they
粉笔线，浅浅低吟
　　Drew straight lines onto the pavement
And they curved up and they fell down and they wrote up
看他们在人行道上，涂画，摔倒，记录着
　　What we missed out and what I could have been then
所有错过的和如果……
　　What we could have been then
　　如果我们爱下去……
　　And sometime somewhere when we start to heal
某时某地，当我们开始学着释然
　　Our hearts will follow there where our new pressed bodies feel
我们身体会适应另一个人的温度
　　Prefectly still inside
内心亦然
　　Now we're single
　　现在我们孑然一身
　　I drew a pretty little memory of us and I held it out and I held it up
重拾丁点的记忆，欲罢还休
　　I let it breathe and put it back into my pocket
让记忆呼吸，尘封内心
　　We'd take it out for special occasions where you and me were feeling gracious
他日重复，彼此亲切，乃敢重拾回忆
　　And we'd pretend it looked like Christmas all rosy and clean
我们将它伪装，如圣诞的一切美好纯净
　　Then you'd see how things change,how they'd be,if we'd stayed
你会看到事情的变化，看到我们的生活，如果我们在一起
　　And she'll make you happier than me and we'd see that
你说她会让你更幸福，我亦这样祝福
　　So I'll smile and you'll leave and I'll do my best to make believe,
我会微笑，你会离去
　　In the inconsequence and words and all those other things
我会努力在所有挣扎和人言中佯装
　　Then we'll begin to get undressed and shed our skin
我们将赤裸身体面对另一个他
　　Let them start their own lives
就这样好了
　　Make a way out to the distance where our new pressed bodies lie
让我们都重新投入新欢
　　Prefectly still inside
内心亦然
　　Now we're single
　　现在我们孑然一身
　　Then we'll begin to get undressed and shed our skin
我们将赤裸身体面对另一个他
　　Let them start their own lives
就这样好了
　　Make a way out to the distance where our new pressed bodies lie
让我们都重新投入新欢
　　Prefectly still inside
内心亦然
　　Now we're single
　　现在，彼此孑然一身
　　I'm sipping on the sounds of afternoon
午后的声音，我轻抿一口

　　Then the chalk lines and the bass lines they
粉笔线，浅浅低吟
　　Drew straight lines onto the pavement
看他们在人行道上画直线
And they curved up and they fell down and they wrote up
嬉戏追逐，摔倒，记录着
　　What we missed out and what I could have been then
所有错过的和如果……
　　What we could have been then
　　如果我们爱下去……

　　现在我们孑然一身
　　I drew a pretty little memory of us and I held it out and I held it up
重拾丁点的记忆，欲罢还休
　　I let it breathe and put it back into my pocket
让记忆呼吸，却尘封内心
　　We'd take it out for special occasions where you and me were feeling gracious
他日重复，彼此亲切，乃敢重拾回忆
　　And we'd pretend it looked like Christmas all rosy and clean
我们将它伪装，如圣诞的一切美好纯净

　　I'm sipping on the sounds of afternoon
午后的声音，我轻抿一口


真好～

Then we'll begin to get undressed and shed our skin
我们将赤裸身体面对另一个他
　　Let them start their own lives
就这样好了
　　Make a way out to the distance where our new pressed bodies lie
让我们都重新投入新欢

这段是这样翻的吗？

5楼，那根本不是这么译法。

楼主翻译得很凝练，很美。我的就献丑了。
