[00:00.00] 作词 : Mac Manus
[00:00.00] 作曲 : Mac Manus
[00:00.00] I should open with a kiss for if you're reading this
[00:25.86]You must have opened up your case
[00:31.47]And found this letter where I placed it
[00:35.46]In between the silk and lace
[00:41.40]There were other clues like your walking shoes
[00:52.44]But I still refused to believe
[01:02.61]That you were meant to be the first to leave
[01:17.43]Everybody here sends you their love
[01:26.28]How could I forget you still walk above or below
[01:38.64]Perhaps you'll never know this purgatory
[01:43.41]We never could agree there's a thought, there's a pause
[01:50.79]No time to repent, eternally yours in a permanent lent
[02:09.39]But if I should give you up
[02:14.37]If you're right and life just stops
[02:19.17]And I never see your face again
[02:24.72]Then from unearthly pleasures, proud and plain
[02:29.97]I shall abstain
[02:34.95]Till you realize, my loss is your surprise
[02:45.57]Unless you know otherwise then don't grieve
[02:56.25]You see I had to be the first to leave

作词 : Mac Manus
作曲 : Mac Manus
I should open with a kiss for if you're reading this
You must have opened up your case
And found this letter where I placed it
In between the silk and lace
There were other clues like your walking shoes
But I still refused to believe
That you were meant to be the first to leave
Everybody here sends you their love
How could I forget you still walk above or below
Perhaps you'll never know this purgatory
We never could agree there's a thought, there's a pause
No time to repent, eternally yours in a permanent lent
But if I should give you up
If you're right and life just stops
And I never see your face again
Then from unearthly pleasures, proud and plain
I shall abstain
Till you realize, my loss is your surprise
Unless you know otherwise then don't grieve
You see I had to be the first to leave
