歌词
这是个男女相识的故事
This is a story of Boy Meets Girl.
这个男孩名叫汤姆·汉森，来自新泽西的马盖特市
The boy, Tom Hanson of Margate, N.J.,
从小认为他永远不会得到真正的幸福
grew up believing that he'd never truly be happy
除非有天遇上他的另一半
until the day he met The One.
这种想法源自于过早接触英国伤感流行乐
This belief stemmed from early exposure to sad British pop music
以及对《毕业生》这部电影彻底的误读
and a total misreading of the movie 'The Graduate.'
这个女孩名叫莎莫·芬，来自密歇根州的辛尼克山
The girl, Summer Finn of Michigan,
则完全不信这些
did not share this belief.
自从她的父母离异后
Since the disintegration of her parents’ marriage,
她只爱两件东西
she’d only loved two things.
第一件是她乌黑的长发
The first was her long, dark hair.
第二件是她可以如此轻松地把它剪掉却完全没有留恋
The second was how easily she could cut it off and feel nothing.
1月8日，汤姆遇到了莎莫
Tom meets Summer on January 8th.
他几乎立即意识到
He knows almost immediately
她就是自己一直在找的人
she is who he’s been searching for.
这是个男女相识的故事
This is a story of Boy Meets Girl,
但你先得搞清楚
but you should know up front,
这不是个爱情故事
this is not a Love Story.
