歌词
我读了奶奶在1923年写的一封信
I read a note my grandma wrote back in1923
爷爷把它放在外套里，他给我看了一次
My grandpa kept it in his coat and he showed it once to me
他说孩子你或许不明白
Said son you might not understand
但那是很久很久以前的事了
But a long, long time ago
你奶奶的爸爸一点也不喜欢我
Your grandma's daddy didn't like me none
但是我很爱你奶奶
But I love your grandma so
我们有个疯狂的计划要私会
We had this crazy plan to meet
然后一起私奔
And run away together
到了第一个城镇，我们就结为夫妻，白头偕老
Get married in the first town we came to and live forever
钉在我们约好的那棵树上
Nailed to the tree where we were supposed to meet insteac
我找到这封信
I found this letter
这信上说
And this is what it said
如果你比我先到那里
If you get there before I do
不要放弃我
Don't give up on me
我把事办完后就会去见你
I'll meet you when my chores are through
虽然我不知道要多久
I don't know how long I'll be
但是我不会让你失望
But I'm not gonna let you down
亲爱的，等等看
Darling wait and see
从现在开始直到我再次见到你
So between now and then till I see you again
我会爱你，爱我
I'll be loving you, love me
我在奶奶离开前的几小时读了这些话
I read those words just hours before my grandma past away
在教堂门口
In the door way of a church
我和爷爷停下来祈祷
Where me and grandpa stopped to pray
15年以来我从未见过他哭泣
As he said these words to her
但是当他对她说这些话时
His eyes filled up with tears
他的眼里却充满了泪水
If you get there before I do
如果你比我先到那里
Don't give up on me
不要放弃我
I'll meet you when my chores are through
我把事办完后就会去见你
I don't know how long 'l be
虽然我不知道要多久
But I'm not gonna let you down
但是我不会让你失望
Darling wait and see
亲爱的，等等看
So between now and then till I see you again
从现在开始直到我再次见到你
I'll be loving you, love me
我会爱你，爱我
I'll be loving you, love me
我会爱你，爱我
