Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作词 : Fogelberg
[00:18.62] Met my old lover in the grocery store,
[00:22.81] The snow was falling Christmas Eve.
[00:27.31] I stole behind her in the frozen foods,
[00:31.18] And I touched her on the sleeve.
[00:36.43] She didn't recognize the face at first,
[00:40.88] But then her eyes flew open wide.
[00:45.38] She went to hug me and she spilled her purse,
[00:49.29] And we laughed until we cried.
[01:12.36] We took her groceries to the checkout stand,
[01:17.10] The food was totalled up and bagged.
[01:21.10] We stood there lost in our embarrassment,
[01:24.79] As the conversation dragged.
[01:29.92] We went to have ourselves a drink or two,
[01:34.54] But couldn't find an open bar.
[01:39.04] We bought a six-pack at the liquor store,
[01:42.54] And we drank it in her car.
[01:48.60] We drank a toast to innocence,
[01:51.29] We drank a toast to now.
[01:56.85] And tried to reach beyond the emptiness,
[02:00.60] But neither one knew how.
[02:05.47] She said she'd married her an architect,
[02:09.85] Who kept her warm and safe and dry,
[02:14.35] She would have liked to say she loved the man,
[02:17.85] But she didn't like to lie.
[02:23.41] I said the years had been a friend to her,
[02:27.79] And that her eyes were still as blue.
[02:32.10] But in those eyes I wasn't sure if I saw,
[02:36.35] Doubt or gratitude.
[02:41.10] She said she saw me in the record stores,
[02:45.48] And that I must be doing well.
[02:49.98] I said the audience was heavenly,
[02:53.60] But the traveling was hell.
[02:59.40] We drank a toast to innocence,
[03:02.27] We drank a toast to now.
[03:07.89] And tried to reach beyond the emptiness,
[03:11.26] But neither one knew how.
[03:16.95] We drank a toast to innocence,
[03:19.88] We drank a toast to time.
[03:25.70] Reliving in our eloquence,
[03:28.95] Another 'auld lang syne'......
[03:37.89] The beer was empty and our tongues were tired,
[03:42.14] And running out of things to say.
[03:46.53] She gave a kiss to me as I got out,
[03:50.40] And I watched her drive away.
[03:55.84] Just for a moment I was back at school,
[04:01.40] And felt that old familiar pain .........
[04:08.03] And as I turned to make my way back home,
[04:12.84] The snow turned into rain ..............
