If You Could See Me Now

Danny的父親也在63歲時因為胃部的動脈瘤去世，去世的那天正好是情人節，Danny在自己的左臂上紋了一個巨大的玫瑰刺青，來紀念這一天。Danny說：“他去世的那天早上還在我和說話聊天，而晚上他就這麼走了。你連說一句‘這真TM糟糕’的時間都沒有。我以前沒有意識到和父親在一起的時間的寶貴。要知道，我離開了他有十年，我很清楚他愛我，可我卻不知道他喜不喜歡我。”Danny在2012年9月發行的專輯《#3》中發行了歌曲“If You Could See Me Now”寫給自己的父親，向自己父親訴說自己的思念。

It was February 14th, Valentines Day

2月14日，情人節

The roses came, but they took you away

我帶著玫瑰找你，但他們卻帶走了你

Tattooed on my arm is a charm to disarm

我胳膊上的紋身是能讓我息怒的咒語

All the harm, gotta keep myself calm

這些疼痛，希望能讓我鎮定

But the truth is you're gone

但是這不能抹去你已不在的事實

And I'll never get to show you these songs

我永遠不能給你看這些歌了

Dad, you should see the tours that I'm on

父親，你應該看看我現在的巡迴演出

I see you standing there next to mom

我看到你和母親

Both singing along, yeah arm in arm

手牽著手，深情歌唱

There are days when I'm losing my faith

有時候當我失去信心你們給了我希望

Because the man wasn't good - he was great!

讓我做最棒的自己

He'd say, "Music was the home for your pain"

你會說"音樂能治癒你的傷口，

And explain I was young, he would say

你還年輕，還有很長的時間可以投入。

"Take that rage, put it on a page,

把你的憤怒述諸筆端，匯成旋律

Take the page to the stage, blow the roof off the place."

把它帶到舞台上，風靡天下”

I'm tryin' to make you proud, do everything you did

父親我會完成你的期望，讓你自豪

I hope you're up there with God sayin' "That's my kid"

成為讓老天和老爹都驕傲的兒子。

I still look for your face in the crowd

這個時候我依然希望在茫茫人海中尋找你

Oh, if you could see me now

如果這時你能看到我

Oh, if you could see me now

看到我的時候

Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow

你是會有點不知所措還是鞠一個躬呢

Oh, if you could see me now

如果這時你能看到我

Oh, if you could see me now

如果這時你能看到我

Yeah

Oh, if you could see me now

如果這時你能看到我

Yeah

If you could see me now

如果這時你能看到我

would you recognize me

你還能不能認得我？

Would you pat me on the back or would you criticize me?

會不會拍拍我的肩膀，還是指責我？

Would you follow every line on my tear-stained face

會不會看著我淚跡斑斑的臉

Put your hand on the heart that was cold as the day you were taken away

觸摸我空無一物的心房

I know it's been a while but I can see you clear as day

我知道我們很久沒見了，但對我來說卻猶如一日

Right now, I wish he could hear you say.

此時此刻我只想聽你的傾訴。

I drink too much and I smoke too much Dutch

這段時間我縱情煙酒

But if you can't see me now that sh*t's a must.

但是沒有你的關注這些都不算什麼。

He used to say I won't know 'til it cost me

他總是告誡我，等到這些毀掉我的時候我才會省悟

Like I won't know real love 'til I've loved and I've lost it

就像我一直不懂的什麼是愛，直到我失去了它

So if you've lost a sister, someone's lost a mom

所以如果你失去了一個姐妹，那有人就失去了一個母親

And if you've lost a dad, then someone's lost a son

如果你失去了一個父親，那有人就失去了一個兒子

And they're all missing now, and they're all missing now

他們全都走了，全都走了

So if you get a second to look down at me now

就請你們現在多看我一眼

Mom, dad, I'm just missin' you now

爸媽，我很想你們

I still look for your face in the crowd

這個時候我依然希望在茫茫人海中尋找你

Oh, if you could see me now

如果這時你能看到我

Oh, if you could see me now

如果這時你能看到我

Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow

你是會有點不知所措還是鞠一個躬呢

Oh, if you could see me now

如果這時你能看到我

Oh, if you could see me now

如果這時你能看到我

Oh，

Would you call me a saint or a sinner?

Would you love me, loser or winner?

Oh

When I see my face in the mirror

We look so alike that it makes me shiver

Oh

I still look for your face in the crowd

Oh, if you could see me now

Oh, if you could see me now

Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow

Oh, if you could see me now

Oh, if you could see me now

I still look for your face in the crowd

Oh, if you could see me now

Oh, if you could see me now

Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow

Oh, if you could see me now

Oh, if you could see me now

Oh, if you could see, you could see me now
