Break Up In A Small Town
I knew Id see her around
我知道我會常常看到她
Id be at some party, shed show up and Id be walking out
(我知道)我會在一些聚會上碰到她,那麼我會悄悄出去
Or across some parking lot hiding behind her sister
或者穿過停車場躲在她姐妹後頭
Id look up, shed be at the red light beside me
(我知道)我抬頭會發現她就在我身邊等著紅燈
In that white Maxima with the sticker on the back
在那輛白色Maxima裡
Id act like I didnt see her
於是我會裝作沒有看見
Wed pay at the same pumps
(我知道)我們會光顧同樣的加油站
Flip through the same stations
會瀏覽同樣的電台
And slow down for the same curves
會在同樣的拐彎處減速
Run around with the same crowds
會和同一群人混在一起
We just needed some time
我們只是需要一些時間
She could get on with her life and Id get on with mine
她會習慣她的生活而我也是
Thought I would be fine, heh, but maybe not
我想我會過得好,呵,也可能不會
I knew shed find a way to get over me
我知道她會想辦法忘了我
But Id never thought that...
但我從不曾想過……
...she would get down with somebody I know
……她會和我認識的人走到一起
I guess thats just how it goes
我猜這是正常的吧——
When you break up in a small town
——當你在一個小鎮結束戀情
I see our friends and they put on a show
我看見我們的朋友,他們便假裝著
Like they dont want me to know
好像他們不想讓我知道
So they give me the go-around
所以他們迴避著我
But theres only so many streets, so many lights
但是這裡有這麼多熟悉的街道、熟悉的街燈
I swear its like I cant even leave my house
我發誓我甚至無法離開自己的房子
I shouldve known all along
我本該一開始就懂得
You gotta move or move on
你或者搬走或者繼續生活——
When you break up in a small town
——當你在一個小鎮結束戀情
For a while I guess they were keeping it low-key
我一度猜測他倆對於新戀情保持低調
But now its like these county lines closing in on me
但現在好像這些小鎮的道路正把我團團圍住
I see em everywhere together
我隨處可以看見他倆在一起
And its hitting a little too close to home
而且在離我家很近的地方
Shes so far gone, she didnt go far
她並沒有走遠,但(在我心裡)她已經走得好遠
She was over me before the grass grew back where she used to park her car
雜草還未長滿她的車在我家留下車轍時,她就忘了我
Shes leaving those same marks in someone elses yard
現在她的車轍留在了另外一個人的後院
In someone elses arms right down the road
(她的印記)留在了街那頭另一個人的手臂上
And I never thought that...
而我從不曾想過……
...she would get down with somebody I know
……她會和我認識的人走到一起
I guess thats just how it goes
我猜這是正常的吧— —

Your mailbox is seven minutes from mine
你的郵筒離我的不過7分鐘路程
And I drive into town sometimes I see you sittin there with him
而我開車進城時我會看見你和他坐在那裡
And I wanna jump out
我想跳出我的車
I wanna fight
我想和他大打一場
I wanna say, '... that guy!' but I cant
我想說:“……你這混蛋! ”但是我不能
Its my fault, Ilet her go
是我的錯,是我任她離開
