[00:01.000] 作曲 : William Gibbons
[00:14.441]In 1000 years or maybe more
[00:16.842]I could be a stranger to you again
[00:19.676]and maybe we’d meet on the main street
[00:22.194]in a city we both live in
[00:25.015]some things that are almost completely lost
[00:27.852]could be edged off the cliff
[00:29.809]when you reach your hand out to pull them back in
[00:32.897]
[00:44.762]And when i finally found the book with your phone number
[00:50.582]I stood there for minutes while the sun set,
[00:53.097]and when I looked up, it was dark out
[00:56.184]take out the trash, read a book,
[00:59.225]push it out of my mind,
[01:01.114]i just don’t wanna hear it
[01:04.195]Get the onions from garden, get the water, try not to spill it
[01:10.494]It’s the only thing that I could really do
[01:17.247]We are both elitist people that only had fun watching movies
[01:24.069]And complaining about how much better they could be
[01:29.897]
[02:19.603]I stood outside the car gazing up at the deep blue sky for a little too long
[02:22.957]but the cold weather snapped me out of it.
[02:24.894]In the mirror I caught myself smiling, and immediately stopped
[02:27.265]somehow feeling embarrassed.
[02:29.132]I walked round to the garden
[02:30.497]but saw something moving around inside.
[02:32.391]I got nervous as a leaned down
[02:34.088]when all of a sudden it jumped up, and right past my face.
[02:36.886]I turned and looked, realizing it was just a leaf, and the wind took it away.
[02:41.392]
[03:13.246]The other night, i was staying up too late again
[03:15.532]and I saw a picture of the family from 10 years ago.
[03:17.870]I didn’t know at the time you saw it too but Rosie told me about it.
[03:20.910]maybe you’re wondering how i am.
[03:22.468]i go to work, i come home, i watch videos. whatever.
[03:25.330]Things were so hectic back then
[03:26.796]cooking for everyone, folding laundry, dishes….
[03:28.936]nowadays I don’t do them enough.
[03:31.045]Rosie says that just means i’m busy
[03:32.660]but I think she’s just being overly cautious these days
[03:35.036]because she’s worried I might start hating her again
[03:39.900]time wont seem to do everything,
[03:42.871]no time seems to heal nothing!
[03:46.471]I just find other things to do in my spare time
[03:53.026]look through old pictures
[03:56.285]but think of the future:
[03:59.485]should things just remain the same?
[04:06.521]I saw your mom the other day, weird right?
[04:08.559]She doesn’t come out very often
[04:09.860]but she couldn’t find your phone number
[04:11.170]so she was asking for it
[04:12.289]talking about the picture my mom uploaded.
[04:14.083]You hate to admit when something like that
[04:15.965]makes you pick up the phone, huh?
[04:17.319]It just got me thinking, too.
[04:18.636]sometimes i just find myself wondering
[04:20.301]if i’ve really changed at all.
[04:21.894]I’m still way too opinionated in conversations…
[04:23.943]I forget important things people tell me…
[04:25.769]and I just start to worry
[04:27.277]if I’ve really changed at all.
[04:31.787]stars blink out eventually,
[04:34.715]wounds that don’t heal eventually
[04:38.080]turn to dust on the bodies where they formed so long ago and
[04:44.453]I’d like to see you, I’d like to tell you…
[04:50.964]but maybe photos will just have to do
[05:23.519]I got a message from your grand parents the other day
[05:25.691]asking for money again.
[05:27.131]As I get older, I wonder if having children meant much to them
[05:30.257]but at this point I’ll probably never ask.
[05:37.030]That’s how it is.
[05:43.816]That’s just the way it is.
