Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone

熟悉的清晨鳥兒卻已遠走他鄉

It's left this house empty now, not sure if I belong

久違的寂靜令我不知身在何方

Yesterday you asked me to write you a pleasant song

昨天你讓我為你譜下一曲明朗

I'll do my best now, but you've been gone for so long

我盡力而為可你早已不在身旁

The window's open now and the winter settles in

寒風推窗而入冬夜悄然無聲

We'll call it Christmas when the adverts begin

又是一年聖誕熙攘依舊的人群

I love your depression and I love your double chin

我愛你微重的下頦我愛你隱忍的深情

I love 'most everything that you bring to this offering

我愛你的一切即便是給我留下的烙印

Oh I know that I left you in places of despair

姑娘我知道我曾讓你陷入無助和傷悲

Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair

可如果你仍愛我能否放下你的冷漠與戒備

At night I trip without you, and hope that I don't wake up

獨自在晦暗的夜夢中彷徨只想就此一去不回

'Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup

醒來不見你的身影那心痛就像無酒的宿醉

Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone

熟悉的清晨鳥兒卻已遠走他鄉

Our clocks are ticking now so before our time is gone

一切已成回憶老鐘還在滴答作響

We could get a house and some boxes on the lawn

我們本能買下一幢小屋草地旁擺上你心愛的木箱

We could make babies and accidental songs

或許我們的孩子有天也會隨我們哼唱
