lay down~を調べていくと「~を捧げる」という意味があり、“lay down one’s life”「命を捧げる」というような使い方をする(辞書で意味を調べる場合、最初の意味だけ見て訳を当てはめてしまう人が多いが、もししっくり来ないのであれば、必ず下まで見てみるべきである。自動詞か他動詞かの違いによって意味が異なることも多いので、その辺もしっかり見極めると間違いが少なくなる)。
そして後半、ここで省略を用いているとして、
I will lay down my heart and I’ll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't [lay down your heart].
If I could fall into the sky
Do you think time would pass me by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you tonight
It's always times like these when I think of you
And I wonder if you ever think of me
'Cause everything's so wrong and I don't belong
Living in your precious memories
'Cause I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall into the sky
Do you think time would pass me by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you tonight
And I, I don't want to let you know
I, I drown in your memory
I, I don't want to let this go
I, I don't
Making my way downtown walking fast
Faces pass and I'm home bound
Staring blankly ahead just making my way
Making a way through the crowd
And I still need you
And I still miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall into the sky
Do you think time would pass us by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you
If I could fall into the sky
Do you think time would pass me by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you, if I could just hold you tonight
「お砂糖を取ってくれませんか」という依頼の表現は、Can [Will] you pass me the sugar?だよね。でももしそれを目上の人や見知らぬ人、つまり自分との関係が「遠い」人にお願いする場合には、Can [Will] をCould [Would] に変えてCould [Would] you pass me the sugar?って言うよね。
And I'd give up forever to touch you 'Cause I know that you feel me somehow You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be And I don't wanna go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment And all I can breathe is your life And sooner or later, it's over I just don't wanna miss you tonight
★And I don't want the world to see me 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming Or the moment of truth in your lies When everything feels like the movies Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive

「アイリス」translated by Cotey
君に触れるのを永遠に
諦めてもいい
君がその中で
感じているのなら
まだ行ったことのないような
高みに1番近づいている君
僕はまだ
君から離れたくない
今この時だけを
味わい尽くしたい
君の全てを
飲み込んでしまいたい
やがて2人の波が過ぎるまで
今夜は君と一緒にいたい
★誰にも見つかりたくはない
誰も判ってはくれないから
何もかもいずれ壊れてしまうなら
君だけに解ってもらえればいい
溢れぬ涙に抗えはしない
嘘から生まれた真実にも
全て作り物に思えるなら
温い血を流してみればい
