Lyrics by：Aidan Moffat

Composed by：Arab Strap

Produced by：Mike Robinson

It must have been at least three years ago
那至少已是三年前的往事
I had a crush on this girl I didn't know
我曾痴迷于一个素未谋面的姑娘
I thought it was a good idea at the time
当时觉得这主意妙不可言
But I was pissed
但我醉得荒唐
I tried to find her by sending an ad into the list
试着在分类广告里刊登寻人启事
So it was free 'cause they'd just started this
因为是新开的专栏所以免费刊登
Brand new section
崭新的版面
First I passed it on to my old friend
最先转发给了我的老友
Denise for her inspection
丹妮丝等待她的检视
It said 'I saw you twice and both times
广告写道"我见过你两次 每次
You were wearing orange'
你都穿着橙色衣裳"
And she told you I fancied you
她告诉你我对你有好感
In the toilets at the garage
在加油站洗手间里
There was never a reply
却始终没有回音
Perhaps it didn't astound her
或许这并未让她惊讶
That's assuming she ever saw it but
前提是她真的看到过广告
I think I've found her
我想我已遇见她
I thought it could've been her in a club on Saturday night
周六夜店那抹身影 恍惚间以为是她
She was a couple of tables away
隔着两三张桌的距离
And I thought it might be
我暗自揣测着可能
But I was far too drunk
无奈醉意太浓
So an approach was out of the question
连上前搭话都成奢望
But this guy Stuart had sent us tickets to see his band
斯图尔特赠票邀我们看他乐队演出
Belle and Sebastian we went along thoroughly drunk
醉醺醺去听了Belle and Sebastian
Stopped for a post-gig hello
演出结束后驻足问候
And I think the girl I was looking for
我想我寻找的那个女孩
Is friends with the girl who plays the cello
和大提琴手是好友
I think she's coming to see us when we play
她似乎常来看我们演出
And every time we meet I've got nothing to say
可每次相遇我都无言以对
She probably thinks I'm new
她或许觉得我是新人
She maybe thinks I'm gay
可能以为我不近女色
She's probably go a boyfriend anyway
说不定她早有所属
I remember the first time that I saw her
犹记初见她时的模样
I was completely in awe
我完全被惊艳到失语
I thought well that's the kind of girl
心想这正是我梦寐以求
That I would like to be my squaw
想要共度余生的姑娘
And if I could ever be the kind of brave that
若我能鼓起勇气
She would choose
成为她中意的模样
We'd travel plains with our little baby
我们会带着襁褓中的宝宝
Turned in it's little papoose
漫步在无垠原野上
She starts fore sighting me in a public bar
她在酒吧里频频向我投来目光
My bird was in the bog when she returned she said
当我的女友从洗手间回来时说道
That she would like to give that girl a snog
她真想亲吻那个女孩
And two weeks later we split up and a new lover
两周后我们分手 我开始了
I was seeking
新的追寻
And when I see that girl again
而当我再次遇见她时
I'm just never up for speaking
却总是哑口无言
I think she's coming to see us when we play
她似乎常来看我们演出
And every time we meet I've got nothing to say
可每次相遇我都无言以对
She probably thinks I'm new
她或许觉得我是新人
She maybe thinks I'm gay
可能以为我不近女色
She's probably got a boyfriend anyway
她大概早已名花有主
