cardigan

Vintage tee, brand new phone
復古T卹新款手機
High heels on cobblestones
高跟踏上鵝卵石
When you are young, they assume you know nothing
當你還年少他們認為你全無所聞
Sequin smile, black lipstick
閃亮微笑漆黑唇膏
Sensual politics
肉慾引發的政治糾紛
When you are young, they assume you know nothing
當你還年少他們認為你全無所聞

但我卻看透你心扉
But I knew you
身著levi's牛仔翩翩起舞
Dancin' in your Levi's
街燈下喝得酩酊大醉
Drunk under a streetlight, I
我深知你心
I knew you
將手伸進我的汗衫
Hand under my sweatshirt
親愛的纏綿擁吻
Baby, kiss it better, I
當我感到自己猶如他人床畔下

被遺棄的羊毛衫
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan
是你將我穿上身喚我為你最愛
Under someone's bed
濫交朋友無法得真心摯友
You put me on and said I was your favorite
腳踏兩隻船終得有所失去

當你還年少他們認為你全無所聞
A friend to all is a friend to none
但我卻看透你心扉
Chase two girls, lose the one
玩捉迷藏
When you are young, they assume you know nothing
週末同我相伴

我深知你心
But I knew you
你悸動心跳定不會安寧
Playing hide-and-seek and
倘若此生有機會
Giving me your weekends, I
當我感到自己猶如他人床畔下
I knew you
被遺棄的羊毛衫
Your heartbeat on the High Line
是你將我穿上身喚我為你最愛
Once in twenty lifetimes, I
車內和市內酒吧纏綿親吻

都是我們曾經的點滴
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan
你於我傷痕累累處繪出星河
Under someone's bed
但如今我血流不止
You put me on and said I was your favorite
因為我深知你心

踏上最後一程火車
To kiss in cars and downtown bars
猶如我人生中血跡斑斑
Was all we needed
我看透你心扉
You drew stars around my scars
我試圖改變結局
But now I 'm bleedin'
皮特還是失去了溫迪

我看透你心扉
'Cause I knew you
猶如神父決絕離去
Steppin' on the last train
猶如流水湍急淌去
Marked me like a bloodstain, I
當你還年少他們認為你全無所聞
I knew you
但我深知你將會猶如烙印般一吻無法消散
Tried to change the ending
我知曉你會將我全部假設分析所疑惑
Peter losing Wendy, I
飄渺煙霧環繞不散去
I knew you
因為我年輕時我心全都明了
Leavin' like a father
我深知我將永生永世將你詛咒
Running like water, I
追逐撲朔迷離的陰影
And when you are young, they assume you know nothing
我深知你會在愛潮侵襲後再次心心念念於我

你將會站立於我門前的燈下
But I knew you'd linger like a tattoo kiss
我知曉你會重新奔赴於我
I knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifs
你會重新奔赴於我
The smell of smoke would hang around this long
你會重新奔赴於我
'Cause I knew everything when I was young
你會重新奔赴於我
I knew I'd curse you for the longest time
當我感到自己猶如被遺棄於
Chasin' shadows in the grocery line
他人床畔下的羊毛衫
I knew you'd miss me once the thrill expired
是你將我穿上身喚我為你最愛
And you'd be standin' in my front porch light
And I knew you'd come back to me
You'd come back to me
And you'd come back to me
And you'd come back

And when I felt like I was an old cardigan
Under someone's bed
You put me on and said I was your favorite
