Nothing clings like Ivy 没有攀附像常青藤

Frightened by the dark 由暗受惊

Though she cuts deep 虽然她切深

It never leaves a mark 它从来没有离开的标志

 

No one quite like Ivy 没有人很喜欢常青藤

Ever gets it straight 自从得到它直

What she believes 她认为，

She won't negotiate 她不会谈判

 

All the words of tenderness 柔情的一切话

That never quite got through 从未颇费了

She said "You know how young girls are 她说： “你怎么知道的年轻女孩

From my contempt for you." 从我鄙视你。“

 

Outside in the hollow 在中空外

She may dare herself 她可能不敢自己

For there may be 对于可能存在

A serpent in the grass 潜伏的蛇

 

Nothing clings like Ivy 没有攀附像常青藤

Trying to scare herself 试图吓唬自己

And it may strike or 它可能罢工或

Wait for her to pass 等她来传递

 

All the words of tenderness 柔情的一切话

That she never possessed 她从未拥有过

"So what's the use of promises? “那么什么用的承诺？

I had my fingers crossed." 我有我的手指穿过。 “

 

All the words of tenderness 柔情的一切话

That never quite got through 从未颇费了

She said, "I laughed behind your back 她说：“我笑你背后

When I told them to you." 当我告诉他们给你。 “

 

Nothing clings like Ivy 没有攀附像常青藤

Frightened by the dark 由暗受惊

Though she cuts deep 虽然她切深

It never leaves a mark 它从来没有离开的标志
