Now and then she re-reads the manuscript

时过境迁 她偶尔会重读那段炽热的恋情

Of the entire torrid affair

犹如翻阅褪色的手稿

They compared their licenses

他们交换过驾照上的信息

He said, "I'm not a donor but

I'd give you my heart if you needed it"

She rolled her eyes and said, "You're a professional"

她翻了个白眼 说道 “你真有职业素养”

He said, "No, just a Good Samaritan"

他否认道 “不我只是乐于助人罢了”

He said that if the sex was half as good as the conversation was

他说如果□□能像谈话般美好

Soon they’d be pushing strollers

他们很快就会推着婴儿车四处闲逛

But soon it was over

而一切很快便结束了

In the age of him she wished she was thirty

在与他相恋的年纪她总幻想着自己已经三十岁

And made coffee every morning in a French press

每天清晨用法压壶煮上一壶咖啡

Afterward she only ate kids' cereal

而如今 她只吃着儿童麦片

And couldn't sleep unless it was in her mother's bed

唯有在母亲的床上才能安然入睡

Then she dated boys who were her own age

之后她与同龄男孩约会

With dartboards on the backs of their doors

他们房门后挂着飞镖盘

She thought about how he said

Since she was so wise beyond her years

赞叹她拥有着超越年龄的智慧

Everything had been above board

She wasn't sure

但她并不确定

And the years passed like scenes of a show

时光荏苒岁月如戏场景不断变换

The professor said to write what you know

Looking backwards might be the only way

或许唯回顾过往

To move forward

方能步履向前

Then the actors were hitting their marks

演员们精准地完成着既定动作

And the slow dance was alight with the sparks

慢舞中闪烁着点点火光

And the tears fell in synchronicity with the score

泪水随着乐曲节奏翩然落下

And at last

最终

She knew what the agony had been for

她明白苦楚的来源

The only thing that's left is the manuscript

如今 唯独剩下那份手稿

One last souvenir from my trip to your shores

是留存于我心中的纪念来自彼岸的你

Now and then I re-read the manuscript

时过境迁 我偶尔会重读那段炽热的恋情

But the story isn't mine anymore

而那已不再是我的故事

电影最后大家都回家了,Taylor独自在散掉的宴会上演奏的曲子。在加曲《The Manuscript》中,她回忆起了《THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT》框架之外的浪漫感伤,她唱道,自己是一个年轻女子,和一个年长的男人“在法式滤压壶里煮咖啡”,然后“只吃儿童麦片”,当他抛弃她时,她睡在她母亲的床上。dear reader最佳结尾曲地位不保。电影散场的感觉全专最虐的故事 当我重温手稿 而你已不再属于我 我只能通过回忆再次触碰你的身影时过境迁,我看着曾经的自己写下的记载着你我故事的手稿,骤然发现心里缺了一块,缺口已是被时间所腐蚀,但却没有当初完美的部分弥补。如苍蓝的星空一般轻盈却深邃这首歌的钢琴部分好像selena的lose you to love me的最后部分
