歌词
Grandma burned the biscuits
外婆烤焦饼干引发了大火
Nearly took the house down with it
差点把整座房子烧光了
Now she\'s in assisted livin\'
现在她住在护理院里
We all knew that day would come
我们都知道那一天要来了
We knew she was too gone to drive
当我们在65号公路上
The day she parked on I-65
找到她正在车里哭泣
Found her on the shoulder cryin\'
我们知道她已经老得不能再开车了
She didn\'t know where she was
她不记得自己在哪里
It\'s like her mind just quit
她也不记得自己是谁
Oh, but bring up Grandpa
但是只要一谈起外公
It\'s like someone flipped a switch
就像打开了她脑海里的一个开关
Chorus:
A front porch light and a blue Desoto
蓝色DESTO汽车，座位上幽暗的灯光
Couple of straws in a Coca-Cola
一杯可口可乐里的两支吸管
You could see it all goin\' down
她描绘的是那么的真实，仿佛可以看见
A handsome boy in army green
一个穿着军装的帅小伙
A tear on his face, down on a knee
含着泪水，单膝跪着
Shaky voice, a diamond ring
颤抖的声音，一颗钻戒
She\'ll put you in that town
她的描绘里，你仿佛就在现场
Tomorrow she won\'t remember
到了明天她已经不会记得
What she did today
今天发生的事情
But just ask her about Ellsworth,
但只要问起她堪萨斯Ellsworth镇
Kansas 1948
1948年的那个晚上
She takes out his medals
她拿出了他的勋章
A cigar box of letters
还有一个装着情书的雪茄盒
Sits and scatters pictures
静静的坐着
Black and whites of days gone by.
日子在黑白的CT胶片之间一天天过去
We started losin\' her when she lost him,
当她开始记不起他，我们知道那一天不远了
But to hear her carry on
但只要她听见他的声音
you\'d swear she\'s seventeen again
她又仿佛回到了17岁那一年
Chorus:
Football games and leaves
橄榄球赛和落叶
Are cracklin\'
渐渐的变得模糊
Walking her home in his letter jacket
她穿着他的皮夹克走回家
You can see it all goin\' down
她描绘的是那么的真实，仿佛可以看见
A perfect night on a front porch Glider
在车座椅上度过的一个美妙夜晚
Sayin\' goodnight for the next
在三个小时里
Three hours
相互依偎着反复的道着晚安
Her tired eyes grow wide and bright
当她提起小镇上那个夜晚
When she talks about that town
她黯淡的眼睛又一次闪着光芒
Tomorrow she won\'t remember
到了明天她已经不会记得
What she did today
今天发生的事情
But just ask her about Ellsworth,
但只要问起她堪萨斯的Ellsworth镇
Kansas 1948
1948年的那个晚上
While the world is fading
她身边的世界
All around her
正在一点点的失去光芒
Sharin\' a sundae at the counter
在星期天的下午
He\'s goin\' on and on about her
他在远方默默地等着她
Bet she\'s right there right now
但她仍沉浸在那个晚上
Tomorrow she won\'t remember
到了明天她已经不会记得
What she did today
今天发生的事情
But just ask her about Ellsworth,
但只要问起她堪萨斯的Ellsworth镇
Kansas 1948
1948年的那个晚上
