Staring at the ring of brown left by the breakfast tea on the mahogany table
凝视着早餐茶杯在红木桌面留下的褐色印记
we bought in East London
这张桌子，我们曾一起在东伦敦淘来
Thinking ‘bout the way you used to take it with two sugars and a splash of milk while the radio was hummin’
想着你从前的习惯，总爱加两勺糖、少许奶，伴着收音机呢喃
I found a crumpled ticket from the Piccadilly line
在我那件宽大旧风衣的深处
buried deep in the pocket of my oversized trench coat
翻出一张揉皱的皮卡迪利线车票
It smells like the faint aroma of your cheap tobacco
它仍沾染着你廉价烟草的淡淡气息
and the misty grey rain from that Tuesday on the boat
和那个星期二，船上灰蒙蒙的雨雾缭绕
The radiator’s clicking in a rhythmic kind of pulse,
暖气管的滴答声，敲着某种韵律分明的脉搏
keeping time with the ghost
伴着希望的余韵，
of your footsteps in the hope
与你脚步的剪影一同起落
And I’m just tracing patterns

Remember that the cafe on the corner of the street
还记得街角那家咖啡馆吗？
where the waitress always knew our names and the coffee was
女招待总记得我们的名字，
far too sweet?
咖啡也总是甜得发腻
We’d sit for hours in the corner booth, ignoring the world and the truth,
我们会在角落卡座坐上几小时，不顾世界，
while the rain turned the pavement
不理现实，任凭雨水将路面铺成
into a sheet
镜面一片
You’d play with the silver ring on your thumb and tell me stories of the places that you always really wanted to go
你转动拇指上的银戒，对我讲起你一直想去的那些地方，故事绵延
While I was memorizing every single flicker of your eyelashes,
而我，在将你睫毛的每一次颤动都铭刻于心，
move by move,
一分一寸，
in a beauti-kind of slow
缓慢而缱绻
Now the silence in this flat is getting louder than the sirens
如今，这间公寓的寂静，
screaming down the road at half-past three
比凌晨三点半在路上呼啸的警笛还要震耳欲聋

而我，不过是一副徒具骨骼的孤独轮廓，
architecture of a woman, wondering if you ever catch a stray
困在建筑的壳里，
thought of me

A story in my pocket that is
我口袋里的故事，永远不会蒙上灰尘
never getting old
只是空气渐冷，冬天就要来临
But the air is getting chilly and the winter’s coming on
说来也奇，
It’s funny how the little things stay when the

big love is gone
竟也会无影无踪
