这是一首很好听的歌。第一次听到是在GOSSIP GIRL里。我至今听到这首歌，还能回想起那个桥段，Serena和Dan因矛盾分手，各自做着自己的事，脑海里却总是对他/她挥之不去。
印象这么深，是因为当时自己也正好处在一段感情末尾，狗血剧情居然还跟电视剧颇有几分相似。歌词和意境，跟我当时的心情很贴切，加上“It's too late......”反复重复，朗朗上口，所以对这首歌百听不厌。
一晃十年过去了，英语课上老师说要找首歌，来体会一下英语在歌曲中的用法，于是就在网上翻出了这首歌。以前我对歌词，除了“It's too late to apologize,it's too late......”这句以外，统统听不懂也记不住的，现在经过一年学习，听英文歌略有进步，但还是有点吃力。
体会来体会去，我发现找不到能让我满意的翻译。网上大概有四五个版本，每个都有一两句翻得很精彩，却又都有几句明显翻得不对。心血来潮，我把它们整合了一下，权当是对这段十年前的往事作个纪念吧。
