Her birthday came and went without a card, or a single I love you 她的生日来无影去无卡或单我爱你

On their anniversary she sat all alone at a table set for two 在他们的周年纪念，她坐在独自一人在一张桌子一套两

She tries her best to please him, but she never hears one single word of praise 她试图浑身解数讨好他，但她从来没有听到赞美一个字

She feels just like a stranger, in a home where love has seen its better days 她感觉就像一个陌生人，在一个家中的爱已经看到了它的更好的日子

   

Well he's taken her for granted 嗯，他是把她视为理所当然

God only knows why she keeps hangin' on 只有上帝知道为什么她在一直犹豫不决，

'Cause it's better to be gone, but not forgotten 因为那是更好地走了，但不能遗忘

Than to be forgotten, but not gone 比被人遗忘，但没走

   

Somehow he can't remember, when he's late to even take the time to call 不知怎的，他不记得，当他迟到甚至花时间打电话

And even on the nights he's there she gets the feeling he's not there at all 甚至在他那里的晚上，她得到他不存在一样的感觉

She's become a prisoner in that big old house where sweet love used to be 她成为巨大的老房子，甜蜜的爱情曾经是一名囚犯

Well, it's not even over but Lord she feels just like a memory 嗯，这甚至不是结束，但主啊，她感觉就像记忆

   

Well he's taken her for granted 嗯，他是把她视为理所当然

God only knows why she keeps hangin' on 只有上帝知道为什么她在一直犹豫不决，

'Cause it's better to be gone, but not forgotten 因为那是更好地走了，但不能遗忘

Than to be forgotten, but not gone 比被人遗忘，但没走

   

'Cause it's better to be gone, but not forgotten 因为那是更好地走了，但不能遗忘

Gone, but not forgotten 走了，但没有忘记

Than to be forgotten, but not gone 比被人遗忘，但没走
