Found it folded in my saddlebag

Paper worn and the ink run black
纸张磨旧 墨水洇成黑色印记
Postmarked dated near a month ago
邮戳日期 大约在一个月前
From a town I used to know

[snare rimshot enters]
[军鼓边击进入]
Hand started shaking as I read your name
念出你名字时 手开始颤抖
Rosie Lord it hit like rain
罗西 天啊 像雨一样砸在心头
I broke that seal with a heavy hand
我沉重地拆开封缄
Didn't know if I could stand
不知自己能否承受
Every word felt like a ghost
每个字都像一道幽灵
From the girl I loved the most

It was a letter from Rosie

Saying why'd you leave me this way

Said the night's got cold and lonely

And the sky ain't felt the same
天空也不再是从前的模样
She wrote I waited by that old porch light
她写道 我在那盏旧门廊灯下等过
Hoping you'd come back one day
盼着你有一天能回来
Now I'm holding words from yesterday
如今我捧着昨天的字句
That came too late to stay
却已太迟 留不住任何东西
She said the town still speaks my name
她说镇上的人还会提起我的名字
But not like it did before I changed
但语气已不同于我改变之前
Said my shadow never left those streets
说我的影子从未离开那些街巷
Even though I chose to leave
尽管是我选择远走他乡
Your old coat still hangs by the door
你的旧外套还挂在门边
Boot marks faded on the floor
靴印在地板上渐渐褪淡
I kept your side of the bed untouched
你那一半床铺我始终未动
God that line hurt too much
天啊 那句话太让人心痛
Every sentence cut so deep
每一句都割得那么深
Like promises I couldn't keep
像那些我未能守住的诺言
It was a letter from Rosie
那是一封罗西的来信
Saying I tried to understand

Said she prayed I'd find my way back

But life don't follow plans
可生活从不按计划进行
She wrote if you ever read this note

Just know I gave my heart
只要知道我曾把心都给了你
Now I'm holding what's left of her
如今我捧着那属于她的残余
And tearing it apart
却亲手将它撕碎
Last line read don't come back for me
最后一行写着 别再为我回来
I'm already where you used to be
我已在 你从前所在的地方
Church bells rang in the distance slow
远处教堂的钟声缓缓响起
And suddenly I knew I was too late to go
那一刻我忽然明白 我已经太迟
It was a letter from Rosie
那是一封罗西的来信
From a world I can't return
来自一个我再也回不去的世界
Every word a quiet goodbye
每个字都是一场悄然的告别
Every page a lesson learned
每一页都是一堂课
She waited long as she could wait
她等了又等 直到再也等不下去
But time don't ever bend
但时间从不低头
Now I'm riding with her memory
如今我带着她的记忆骑行
That don't know how to end
那记忆 永无尽头
[music softens, acoustic guitar and pedal steel]
[音乐渐柔 原声吉他与踏板钢弦]
Folded that letter, held it to my chest
折起那封信 贴在胸口
Like I could bring her back to rest
仿佛能让她安息归来
But the wind just took what I couldn't say
可风只带走了我说不出口的话
And carried her name away
把她的名字 吹散远方
[final acoustic guitar strum]
[最后原声吉他扫弦]
