哇耶《Love's Leftovers(爱之剩菜)》[FLAC/MP3-320K]

歌词

--------------
We sat down to dinner, last night
You picked up your chopsticks, and in the light
Of the kitchen lamp, you reached across
And placed the best piece, where I was lost
In my own bowl, on my own rice
You said "you look tired, have this, it's nice"
I looked at your bowl, it was bare
Just the vegetables, and the air
It's just a piece of meat, nothing more
But it's the thing I'm looking for
The way you give me, the better bite
The quietest of love, the softest light
Love's leftovers, in your bowl
You give me the best, you take the whole
Of the plain, the simple, the less
The quietest of love, the softest dress
No need to ask, no need to say
Love's leftovers, every day
Love's leftovers, where you are
Giving me the best, from afar
Takeout arrived, two boxes, warm
You handed me the larger, with no alarm
You said "I'm not that hungry, tonight"
But I saw your stomach, growl, in the light
You always do this, every time
You give me the larger, the prime
The cut, the portion, the better half
You take the smaller, and you laugh
It's just a piece of meat, nothing more
But it's the thing I'm looking for
The way you give me, the better bite
The quietest of love, the softest light
Love's leftovers, in your bowl
You give me the best, you take the whole
Of the plain, the simple, the less
The quietest of love, the softest dress
No need to ask, no need to say
Love's leftovers, every day
Love's leftovers, where you are
Giving me the best, from afar
When you're gone, I eat alone
The portions are even, on my own
But the food tastes bland, the bowl feels cold
Without your chopsticks, reaching, bold
To place the best piece, in my bowl
Without your "you look tired," taking its toll
On my heart, on my soul, on my mind
Without you here, the dinner's unkind
And when you come back, you don't ask why
My bowl is full, you just sigh
You reach across, and place the best
And suddenly, I'm blessed, I'm blessed
Love's leftovers, in your bowl
You give me the best, you take the whole
Of the plain, the simple, the less
The quietest of love, the softest dress
No need to ask, no need to say
Love's leftovers, every day
Love's leftovers, where you are
Giving me the best, from afar
