I was goin' through the closet back in my old home 我是布莱恩通过衣柜回到我的老家

Found my leatherman's jacket so I slipped it on 发现我莱特曼的外套，所以我滑进去

Deep in the pocket still folded up tight 深的口袋还是折叠紧

Was the letter you wrote to tell me goodbye 是你写信告诉我道别信

   

The minute I saw it I just had to smile 我看到它的那一刻我只是微笑

It smelled like old leather as smooth as a child 它闻起来像老皮光滑如一个孩子

I took a deep breath then put it away 我深吸了一口气，然后把它收

There was no need to read I knew just what it would say 没有必要看，我知道正是它会说

   

I know the words by heart I know every line 我知道了​​心脏，我知道每一行字

From this ain't easy to you'll get along just fine 从这个不容易，你会相处得很好

I know every comma every question mark 我知道每一个逗号每一个问号

No I don't have to look I know the words by heart 不，我没有看，我知道了​​心脏的话

   

Scenes like home old movies flash through my head 像家一样的老电影场景在我的脑海闪现

The homecoming game that the night on my bed 衣锦还乡的游戏，在我的床上的夜

The words that you wrote still cut me in two 你写的字还砍我两

How you said you still cared but that we were through 你怎么说你仍然在意，但是，我们是通过

   

I know the words by heart I know every line... 我知道了​​心脏，我知道每一行的话...

   

Ain't it funny how a memory can play tricks on your mind 是不是很可笑吗？内存可以在你的脑海做手脚

I don't remember a thing from my classes but I can qoute you every line 我没有从我的课还记得一件事，但我可以qoute你的每一行

   

I took off my jacket and put it away 我脱下外套，把它扔掉

With your note in the pocket like I found it that day 随着口袋里的音符一样，我发现它的那一天

Poured me a beer then pictured your face 给我倒一杯啤酒，然后想象你的脸

And drank a silent toast to things that time can't erase 喝了沉默举杯东西，时间无法抹去

   

I know the words by heart I know every line... 我知道了​​心脏，我知道每一行的话...

I know the words by heart I know every line... 我知道了​​心脏，我知道每一行的话...
