歌曲 | Distantly In Love |
歌手 | Jimmy Buffett |
专辑 | One Particular Harbor |
Lyrics:Jimmy Buffett Music:Jimmy Buffett | |
For Jane and Savannah Jane | |
Payphones all were ringing as the crowd went roarin' by | |
Lovely dancers swayin' to an island lullaby | |
Beside the southern ocean taking stock of what's to be | |
Writing you this letter that you'll probably never see | |
Chorus: | |
But I can't help but be | |
Ruled by inconsistencies | |
Not unique just distantly in love | |
Tried to phone from Paris thinking things could be arranged | |
Me and you would rendezvous but I found your number changed | |
So I drove to San Remo where the crazy painter dwells | |
Toasted our old photograph still up there on his shelf | |
Chorus: | |
But I can't help but be | |
Ruled by my antiquities | |
Not unique just distantly in love | |
I can't be the one to fill | |
Your times and all your places | |
I can't be the one to fill | |
Your blanks and empty spaces | |
I heard it from a friend of ours I saw in Timber Bay | |
You had a new lover who had stolen you away | |
That could be the reason that I never got in touch | |
May present slight problems if he loves you half as much | |
Chorus: | |
As I who can't help but be | |
Ruled by my antiquities | |
Not unique just distantly in love | |
You know I can't help but be | |
Part of my own philosophies | |
Not unique just distantly in love | |
