歌词
Lately I've become such a postcard lover
最近我成了痴迷明信片的爱慕者
Especially of the ones I get from you
尤其是你寄来的那些
And if, these days, they don't come quite so often
如果这几天它们来得不那么频繁的话
They charm me more than ever when they do
那它们会更加吸引我
I picture you beside a sunny harbour
我回想起晴天时你在港口边的模样
Waiting for a boat to come to shore
等待着一艘去往岸边的船
Your finger lingering on a postcard spinner
你的指尖在邮箱转盘上游移
In the doorway of a tacky tourist store
就在那个老旧的旅游商店门口
Or whiling away those warm enchanted evenings
或者是在那些迷人的夜晚打发时间
Writing in the corner of some café
在咖啡的某个角落写着什么
Those careless collections of words and feelings
行文随意，但字里行间带着感情
You happened to feel like sending me that day
那天你碰巧想寄给我
I save every card, although it gets hard
我收起每一张卡片
To keep some order amongst those random souvenirs
虽然在那些随机附带的纪念品里要保持顺序不是那么容易
It amazes me some, the way we've become
我们之前的进展让我很吃惊
Such postcard lovers, divided by the oceans
被海洋分隔的明信片情人
And the years
这么多年了
Have you found yourself some wonderful companion
你为自己找到美妙的意中人了吗
And all the happiness that heaven allows
拥有上天所赐予的幸福
Or are you homesick for that grey and drizzly nation
或者你想阴雨笼罩的家乡了
As you walk home amidst the evening crowds
你被夜晚熙攘的人群簇拥回家
The postcards I send to you from my own travels
我在旅行中寄给你明信片
Can hardly match the ones you send to me
和你寄给我的是那样不同
But at least I give you news of what I'm doing
但至少我告诉了你我的近况
And open my heart to you occasionally
偶尔我会对你敞开心扉
Looking back on all the cards you've written
回望着你写给我的那些卡片
From every far-flung corner beneath the sun
阳光下每一个边远的角落
They say so little of the life you're really leading
他们说你的生活才过了这么一点
So little of the person you've become
你身上还有太多没发掘
But they still bear the traces of all the special places
但他们仍然支撑着这片特殊的土地
We've kept deep within our hopes and in our fears
我们带着希望与恐惧将此藏于心底
It amazes me some, the way we've become
我们之前的进展让我很欣喜
Such postcard lovers, divided by the oceans
被海洋分隔的明信片情人
And the years
年年又岁岁
