Wallet

Regina Spektor - Wallet
錢包

我撿到了一個錢包
I found a wallet,
我撿到了一個錢包
I found a wallet
裡面放著你的小小家庭照
Inside were pictures of your small family
那時候你還年輕，一頭黑髮
You were so young, your hair dark brown
你出生於1953年
You had been born in 1953
你剛剛過期的駕照的塑料殼上
Your winter birthday was stamped on the plastic
印著你在冬天的生日
Of a license so recently expired
走進家門時我太累了
I was so tired as I walked through my door
讓錢包裡的東西都掉到了地上
I let all the contents of your wallet on the floor
就像一處神聖的遺址

或是一本神秘的小說
And like a holy relic
我在昏暗的燈光下翻看它們
Or a mystery novel
尋找一條線索
I thumbed them in the dim light
一張百事達卡
Searching for a clue-
一張老舊的水果杯貼紙
A Blockbuster card,
一張被揉皺的皮靴收據
An old stick of Juicy Fruit
我沒有錢包
A crumpled receipt for a pair of leather boots
我沒有錢包

我用橡皮筋把我的卡都箍在一起
I have no wallet,
我空出一隻手在口袋裡摸索著
I have no wallet
想找幾張紙和零錢
I keep my cards together with a blue rubber band
我會帶著你的錢包
And with a free hand I search in my pocket
去到附近的百事達
For pieces of , pieces of paper and change
他們會找到你的號碼

在他們的電腦中
I'll take your wallet
你永遠不會知道我是誰
To my local Blockbuster
我也永遠不會與你相識
They'll find your number
但是你該有多開心
in their computer
當他們打電話給你
You'll never know me
I'll never know you
But you will be so happy
When they call you up.
