The National--"Brainy"

很少人可以把耽溺描寫的這麼傻氣，令人讀來又愛又憐，不知該生氣，該笑，還是該同情。

我跟著妳穿著外套的背影
已經兩個星期
妳所到之處，天旋地轉
妳說的每一句話，濕潤而飄忽不定

妳知道的，我把妳的指紋保存在我書桌中央的粉紅色資料夾裡
妳是我圍繞的高聳王國
我決定要跟隨妳

妳可能會比原先想像的更需要我
趕快回到妳愛的車上吧
聰明如妳

我跟著妳穿著外套的背影
已經兩個星期
善變的妳，總是在每次我打算離開時改變心意

我整夜不睡，想提昇自己，翻閱著英文字典
妳絕對不會相信我在裡面讀到什麼
--我應該要跟隨妳

妳可能會比原先想像的更需要我
趕快回到妳愛的車上吧
聰明如妳

I’ve been draggin' around from the end of your coat for two weeks
Everywhere you go is swirlin
Everything you say has water under it

You know I keep your fingerprints in a pink folder in the middle of my table
You’re the tall kingdom I surround
Think I better follow you around

You might need me more than you think you will
come home in the car you love, brainy brainy brainy

I’ve been draggin' around from the end of your coat for two weeks
you keep changing you’re fancy fancy mind every time I decide to let go

I was up all night again, boning up and reading the American dictionary
You’ll never believe me what I found
Think I better follow you around

You might need me more than you think you will
Come home in the car you love, brainy brainy brainy
You might need me more than you think you will
Come home in the car you love, brainy brainy brainy
