英文乡村歌曲：Blake Shelton - Austin

She left without leaving a number

Said¹ she needed to clear² her mind³

He figured⁴ she'd gone back to Austin

'Cause⁵ she talked about it all the time

It was⁷ almost⁸ a year

Before she called him up,

Three rings and an answering machine⁹

Is what she got¹⁰


If your calling 'bout⁶ the car, I sold¹¹ it,

If this is Tuesday night, I'm bowling¹²

If you got something to sell

Your wasting¹³ your time

I'm not buying

If it's anybody¹⁴ else

Wait for the tone¹⁵

You know what to do

And P.S. if this is Austin

I still love you.


The telephone fell¹⁶ to the counter¹⁷

She heard but she couldn't believe¹⁸

What kinda man would¹⁹ hang²⁰ on that long

What kinda love that must be

She waited three days

And then she tried again

She didn't know what she'd say

( From: http://www.elyrics.net²¹ )

But she heard three rings and then


If it's Friday night,

I'm at the ball game

And first thing Saturday, if it don't rain

I'm headed out to the lake

And I'll be gone all weekend long

But I'll call you back

When I get home

On Sunday afternoon,

And P.S. if this is Austin

I still love you


This time she left her number

But not another word

Then she waited by the phone

On Sunday evening

And this is what he heard


If you're calling 'bout my heart²²

It's still yours

I shoulda listened to it a little more

Then it wouldn't have

Taken me so long

To know where I belong²³

And by the way boy

This is no machine you're talking to

Can't you tell this is Austin

And I still love you

...I still love you
