He was waitin' for the bus in his army greens

Sat down in a booth at a café there

Gave his order to the girl with a bow in her hair

He's a little shy so she gave him a smile
他有些羞涩 于是她投以微笑
And he said would you mind sittin' down for a while
然后他说 你介意坐下来一会吗
And talkin' to me I'm feelin' a little low
和我聊聊天 我有些难过
She said I'm off in an hour

And I know where we can go

So they went down and they sat on the pier
于是他们跑出去坐到码头上
He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care

I've got no one to send a letter to

Would you mind if I sent one back here to you
