歌 曲 背 景:
這是一個美麗的悲劇故事。在MTV裏，這對愛人深深地墜入了愛河。但是，這個年輕的男子很快就被召入伍，離開了女孩所在的村莊。女孩壹直再等她的愛人回來，直到有個流言傳入她的耳裏，傳說這個男子已經在壹場戰鬥中犧牲，女孩痛不欲生，她扣響了結束她年輕的生命的扳機。
當這個年輕的男子在數年後回來，他再也找不到他的女朋友。壹次偶然的機會，他聽聞這個女孩幾年前已經嫁為人婦…
他不停地喝著WHISKY酒，不停地回想所有關於她和他們的所有的記憶……他失控般地哭泣，酗酒……直到最後他扣響了結束生命的扳機。
人們把他們埋葬在同壹個墓穴裏，來贊頌這至死不渝的愛情。

 
歌詞:
　　She put him out like the burnin’ end of a midnight cigarette
　　她撲滅他的愛 像熄滅午夜盡頭燃燒的煙蒂
　　She broke his heart he spent his whole life tryin’ to forget
　　她傷了他的心 成就他畢生難以釋懷的傷痛
　　We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
　　我們望著他 飲盡悲傷 壹次壹次 一點一滴
　　But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
　　但他無法讓自己 足夠沈醉 以至將她遺忘
　　Until the night
　　直到 那個夜晚
　　
　　He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
　　他端起酒瓶飲頸而下 並對著自己扣響了扳機
　　And finally drank away her memory
　　終於將屬於她的記憶全部喝完
　　Life is short but this time it was bigger
　　生命短暫 這一次卻如此強大
　　Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
　　超越了他仰賴著立足於世的力量
　　We found him with his face down in the pillow
　　我們終於找到他 他卻已將自己深深埋在枕頭裏
　　With a note that said I’ll love her till I die
　　臨別遺言 一紙短箋：我愛她直至生命結束
　　And when we buried him beneath the willow
　　當我們將他下葬 合上了柳木棺蓋
　　The angels sang a whiskey lullaby
　　天使們唱起 威士忌安魂曲
　　
　　The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
　　流言飛傳 但沒有人知道 她心裏無限的自責
　　For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
　　年復壹年 她試圖隱藏 那已融入呼吸的威士忌味道
　　She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
　　她終於飲盡悲傷 一次一次 一點一滴
　　But she never could get drunk eough to get him off her mind
　　但她無法讓自己 足夠沈醉 以至將他遺忘
　　Until the night
　　直到 那個夜晚
　　
　　She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
　　她端起酒瓶飲頸而下 並對著自己扣響了扳機
　　And finally drank away his memory
　　終於將屬於他的記憶全部喝完
　　Life is short but this time it was bigger
　　生命短暫 這一次卻如此強大
　　Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
　　超越了她仰賴著立足於世的力量
　　We found her with her face down in the pillow
　　我們終於找到了她 她卻已將自己深深埋在枕頭裏
　　Clinging to his picture for dear life
　　臨別陪伴 壹張他的照片 紀念這珍貴一生
　　We laid her next to him beneath the willow
　　當我們將她下葬 緊挨著他 合上了柳木棺蓋
　　While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby
　　天使們 又唱起 威士忌安魂曲
