Текст песни This Box Is Empty (Kevin Devine) с переводом

She’s crossing out the details

And dusting off the picture frames, it’s saturday

She’s been waiting for the phone to ring

She’s been waiting all night

But it doesn’t matter who’s on the line

As long as the voice works

But you’re too scared of what you might say

So you think it out on paper, hypothetical and safer

While she’s thumbing through her catalogues

Picking birthday cards, her favourite stars

I guess she’s lonelier than you

And if this box is empty

We’ll have to find another one

With a prettier design

A greater depth inside

And a lid to keep it all from spilling out

And you can fill it up with letters

Back when things were better

And both of you had blinders on.(?)

And story books together

And you pretend it outweighs the bad things

And now she disconnects her phone, after the second ring

And all the trauma you can swallow

Never check your ego

I guess no one’s lonelier than you

And if this box is empty

And if this box is empty

And if this box is empty

And if this box is empty
