Written by:Chely Wright/Liz Rose
In the back of the bottom drawer
在床头柜最底层的抽屉里
Of the dresser by our bed
藏着一个盒子
Is a box of odds and ends
里面装满了零碎的回忆
That I have always kept
我一直珍藏着它们
But the man who sleeps beside me
但躺在我身边的男人
Doesn't know it's even there
却不知道它们的存在
Little pieces from my past
那些来自过去的碎片
That I shouldn't have to share
我本不必与他人分享
A napkin that is stained with time
一张被时间染黄的餐巾纸
Has a poem on it
上面写着一首诗
That didn't quite rhyme
虽然韵律并不完美
But it made me cry
却让我泪流满面
In a dear jane letter
那是一封分手信
From a different guy
来自另一个男人
He broke up with me
他与我分手
And he told me I'm not always right
并告诉我,我并不总是对的
And a stolen key
还有一把偷来的钥匙
From an old hotel room door
来自某间旧酒店房门
In the back
藏在
Of the bottom drawer
最底层的抽屉里
I don't keep these things
我保留这些东西
'Cause I'm longing to go back
并非为了怀念过去
I keep them because I wanna stay
而是为了提醒自己珍惜现在
Right where I'm at
就在此刻此地
I'm reminded of my rights and wrongs
我回想起自己的对与错
I don't wanna mess this up
我不想搞砸这一切
But I wouldn't know where I belong
但如果没有这些回忆
Without this box of stuff
我不知自己将何去何从
A birthday card from my first boyfriend
第一任男友送的生日贺卡
He signed it I love you so I gave in
他写下“我爱你”让我心软
Yeah we went too far in his daddy's car
是啊,我们在他爸爸的车里越界了
And those mardi gras beads from '98
还有那些98年狂欢节的珠子
We danced all night stayed out so late
我们整夜跳舞,玩到很晚
We thought we were stars
我们曾以为自己是明星
Closing down the bars
直到酒吧关门
That champagne was cheap
那香槟虽然廉价
But still I've got that cork
但我仍然保留着那个软木塞
In the back
藏在
Of the bottom drawer
最底层的抽屉里
I'm not trying to hide these things
我并非试图隐藏这些过往
From the man I love today
对我如今深爱的他
But I'm a better woman for him
正是昨日的经历
Thanks to my yesterday
让我成为他更好的伴侣
So now I try to give more than I take
所以我现在努力付出多于索取
And I bite my tongue
我学会忍耐
Fight the urge to say
克制住想说的话
It's my way or no way at all
要么按我的方式来,要么就别来
And now I cherish love a whole lot more
如今我更加珍惜爱情
'Cause of what's
因为那些
In the back of the bottom drawer
在床头柜最底层的抽屉里
