2011 I wait for you 我等著你 with or without you lyrics 1987年3月U2第五張錄音室大碟『The Joshua Tree(約書亞樹)』

 Title: U2 - With Or Without You lyrics

See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I wait for you
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait....without you

With or without you
With or without you

Through the storm we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I'm waiting for you

With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

My hands are tied
My body bruised, she's got me with
Nothing to win
And nothing left to lose

With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you 

1987年3月U2第五張錄音室大碟『The Joshua Tree(約書亞樹)』

及專輯首支單曲『With or Without You』同步發行，5月16日，

此曲拿下美國Billboard流行單曲及主流搖滾榜冠軍，

蟬連三週之久，接著歐洲地區奪冠，英國金榜則拿下Top4，

值得一提的是，這是U2首次打進Billboard成人抒情榜(第23名)。

Bono表示，這首歌靈感來自Scott Walker的Climate of Hunter專輯，

有人說這是描寫男女情感間的折磨與苦痛，

也有人認為這是他闡揚基督無私的愛，

由於南北愛爾蘭政治理念不同，戰爭紛亂不斷，

所以也出現U2對祖國愛恨交織情緒的解讀，

Joe尤其喜愛『With or Without You』的高聲吶喊，

1987年，該曲贏得MTV音樂錄影帶大獎『觀眾票選最佳音樂錄影帶』，

2000年，由滾石雜誌與MTV頻道合辦史上百大流行單曲票選

『With or Without You』名列第八，

2003年，VH1票選二十五年百大歌曲則名列二十一，

2004年，滾石雜誌票選百年五百大歌曲則拿下131名。

 With or without you / U2

See the stone set in your eyes(看到石塊落在你眼中)
See the thorn twist in your side(看著尖刺在你身邊扭曲)
I wait for you(我等著你)

Sleight of hand and twist of fate(用雙手變戲法，扭轉命運)
On a bed of nails she makes me wait(她讓我在釘床上等待)
And I wait without you(沒有你，我依然等下去)
With or without you(不管有沒有你)
With or without you(不管有沒有你)

Through the storm we reach the shore(穿過風暴，我們抵達彼岸)
You give it all but I want more(你付出一切，但我卻嫌不夠)
And I'm waiting for you(我等待著你)

With or without you(不管有沒有你)
With or without you(不管有沒有你)
I can't live(我活不下去)
With or without you(有你或沒有你)

And you give yourself away(而你把自己交給了別人)
And you give yourself away(而你把自己交給了別人)
And you give, and you give(你把自己)
And you give yourself away(而你把自己交給了別人)

My hands are tied(我雙手疲憊)
My body bruised(身上滿是傷痕)
She's got me with(她與我同在)
Nothing to win(沒什麼可以得到)
And nothing left to lose(也沒什麼可以失去)

With or without you(不管有沒有你)
With or without you(不管有沒有你)
I can't live(我活不下去)
With or without you(有你或沒有你)

With or without you(不管有沒有你)
With or without you(不管有沒有你)
I can't live(我活不下去)
With or without you(有你或沒有你)
With or without you(有你或沒有你)
