I have cleaned up the computer screen   我清空了计算机桌面
Lying on the bed, ready to go  躺在床上，准备出行
I have been woken up 3 times  我已被唤醒三次
By my own heartbeats   被自己的心跳之声
No one comes and knocks on my door  没有人来，敲我的门

I was told  他们说
They found her glove near the estuary  在河流入口处发现了她的手套
I was told where I can pick it up  他们说我可以去把它拾回
Shall I take it as a signal  我是该视此为征兆
Or shall I dismiss it as a lie  还是该把它当作谎言？

Rumor is the best guide in a city   谣言是城市里最好的向导
Shadow shows me the whereabouts  阴影指引我
Of moon and sun  寻到日月

I always thought I have missed the train 我总是以为自己错过了火车
On the quiet platform 在安静的站台上
Always the first one  总是第一个到达
But felt like the last, the abandoned, the unfortunate 却总觉得是最后一个——被遗弃，不幸的人
Has she ever 她是否也曾
Felt the same 和我一样？

I will send her a postcard  我要给她寄一张明信片
To the sunny coastal city   寄到明媚的海滨之城
Where sunshine burns the tourists’ skin  那里阳光灼伤游客的皮肤
And the hearts of the exiled from older continents 以及旧大陆流亡者的心脏

And on the postcard I will say 我要在明信片上写道
Dear friend, don’t wait for me 亲爱的朋友，不要等我
I will never come to you  我永远不会随你而去
Because you’ve abandoned me once 因为我曾有一次，被你遗弃
