歌词
I read a note my Grandma wrote back in 1923
我读到外婆在1923年写的一张纸条
外公把它存放在自己的口袋里,他曾经给我看过一次这封信
Grandpa kept it in his coat and he showed it once to me
他说“小子啊,你可能不会明白,在很久以前
He said "Boy you might not understand but a long long time ago
你外婆的爸爸一点也不喜欢我,但是我深爱着你的外婆
Grandma's daddy didn't like me none but I love your Grandma so
我们有了个很疯狂的计划,一起远走高飞
在我们到达的一个镇子结婚并永远地生活在那里
We had this crazy plan to meet and run away together
但在我们约定见面的树下
Get married in the first town we came to and live forever
我只发现了这封钉在树上的信,上面写道
But nailed to the tree where we were supposed to meet instead
如果你比我先到的话
I found this letter and this is what it said
不要离我而去
"If you get there before I do
我处理好一切就来见你
Don't give up on me
我不知道要用多长时间
I'll meet you when my chores are through
但我一定信守承诺
I don't know how long I'll be
亲爱的,等我来见你
But I'm not gonna let you down
从现在开始
Darling wait and see
直到我再次见到你的时间里
And between now and then
我都会一直爱着你
Til I see you again
爱你的,我
I'll be loving you
我在外婆去世前的几个小时读到这些话
Love Me "
在教堂的门口,我和外公停下来祈祷
自我出生来的15年,我从未见到他哭泣
I read those words just hours before my Grandma passed away
但是当他对她说这些话的时候,他的眼睛里充满了泪水
In the doorway of the church where me and Grandpa stopped to pray
如果你比我先到的话
不要离我而去
I know I've never seen him cry in all my fifteen years
我处理好一切就来见你
But as he said these words to her his eyes fill up with tears
我不知道要用多长时间
但我一定信守承诺
"If you get there before I do
亲爱的,等我来见你
Don't give up on me
从现在开始
I'll meet you when my chores are through
直到我再次见到你的时间里
I don't know how long I'll be
我都会一直爱着你
But I'm not gonna let you down
爱你的,我
Darling wait and see
从现在开始
And between now and then
直到我再次见到你的时间里
Til I see you again
我都会一直爱着你
I'll be loving you
爱你的,我
Love Me "
And between now and then
Til I see you again
I'll be loving you
Love me
