The First To Leave - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)/Brodsky Quartet (柏洛斯基弦乐乐团)[00:00:00]
I should open with a kiss[00:00:14]
For if you're reading this[00:00:21]
You must have opened up your case[00:00:25]
And found this letter where I placed it[00:00:31]
In between the silk and lace[00:00:35]
There were other clues[00:00:41]
Like your walking shoes[00:00:47]
But I still refused to believe[00:00:52]
That you were meant to be the first to leave[00:01:02]
Everybody here sends you their love[00:01:17]
How could I forget you still walk above[00:01:26]
Or below[00:01:36]
Perhaps you'll never know this purgatory[00:01:38]
We never could agree[00:01:43]
There's a thought there's a pause[00:01:45]
No time to repent[00:01:50]
Eternally yours[00:01:55]
In a permanent lent[00:02:01]
But if I should give you up[00:02:09]
If you're right and life just stops[00:02:14]
And I never see your face again[00:02:19]
Then from unearthly pleasures proud and plain[00:02:24]
I shall abstain[00:02:30]
Til you realize my loss is your surprise[00:02:35]
Unless you know otherwise[00:02:45]
Then don't grieve[00:02:50]
You see I had to be the first to leave[00:02:56]
