A Dear John Letter 歌词
Dear John: Oh! how I hate to write.
亲爱的约翰:唉!我并不想写下这封信。
Dear John: I must let you know tonight.
但亲爱的约翰,有些事我必须今晚告诉你,
That my love for you has died away like grass upon the lawn.
我对你的爱,已成过眼云烟,消失不见了。
And tonight I wed another dear John.
而我,今晚就要嫁给别人了。
I was overseas in battle when the postman came to me.
当邮差找到我的时候,我远渡重洋,身处战场。
He handed me a letter and I was just as happy as I could be.
当他把信交给我的时候,我欣喜若狂。
Cause the fighting was all over and the battles have all been won.
因为战争已然结束,而我们取得了胜利。
But then I opened up the letter and that started dear John.
但当我打开这封信时才发现它是以“亲爱的约翰”开场。
Won't you please send back my picture my husband wants it now.
(信的内容)“你介意把我的照片还给我吗?我丈夫想要。
When I tell you who I'm wedding you won't care. Dear,anyhow.
我知道你不会在意我嫁给了谁,无论如何。
And it hurts me so to tell ye that my love for you has gone.
对我而言,向你坦白并不容易。
But tonight I wed your brother dear John.
但亲爱的约翰,我今晚就要嫁给你的哥哥了。
And tonight I wed another dear John.
今晚,我要嫁给别人了。
