给约翰的一封信 A Dear John Letter

A Dear John Letter》是一首曲调、内容并不令人激动的歌。整首歌实际上就五行歌词,重复了三遍。女主人公告诉约翰她恨写这样一封信,为的是通知他她再也不爱他了,她要另嫁他人,嫁给另一个约翰。这封信的内容在男主人公旁白后读出:男主人公正在国外战场上,此时战争结束,获得胜利。他欣喜雀跃,打开来信,却见后上所写不同于往常,女朋友向他索回自己的照片,然后她告诉他她要嫁给他的弟弟。

A Dear John Letter

Dear John, oh, how I hate to write!
Dear John, I must let you know tonight
That my love for you has died away
Like grass upon the lawn1,
And tonight I wed2 another Dear John.

Dear John, oh, how I hate to write!
Dear John, I must let you know tonight
That my love for you has died away
Like grass upon the lawn,
And tonight I wed another Dear John
Dear John, oh, how I hate to write!
Dear John,I must let you know tonight
That my love for you has died away
Like grass upon the lawn,
And tonight I wed another Dear John

(Spoken)
I was overseas in battle
When the postman came to me.
He handed me a letter,
And I was just as happy as I could be,
'Cause the fighting was all over
And the battles they'd all been won.
But then I opened up the letter
And it started with “Dear John”.

Would you please send back my picture?
My husband wants it now.
When I tell you who I'm wedding,
You won't care, Dear, anyhow,
And it hurts me so to tell you
That my love for you has gone,
And tonight I wed your brother,
Dear John.


歌词大意


给约翰的信
亲爱的约翰,哦,我多恨写这信,
亲爱的约翰,今晚我必须让你知道,
我对你的爱已消失。
像草坪上的草那样枯黄,
今晚我要嫁给另一个约翰。

亲爱的约翰,哦,我多恨写这信,
亲爱的约翰,今晚我必须让你知道,

亲爱的约翰,哦,我多恨写这信,
亲爱的约翰,今晚我必须让你知道,
我对你的爱已消失。

(旁白)
我正在国外战场上,
邮差向我走过来,
他递给我一封信,
像往常一样,我很高兴,
因为战争已结束,
我们赢了所有的战役。
但等我打开信,
信上写:“亲爱的约翰。”

请你把我的照片寄回,
因为我丈夫现在要它。
我告诉你我要嫁给谁,
亲爱的,你不会怎么在意。
真伤心我要如此告诉你。
我对你的爱已经逝去,
今晚我嫁给你兄弟,
亲爱的约翰。
