记得那天，我借用你的新车，我撞凹了它，

我以为你一定会杀了我，

但是你没有。

Ithought you’d say, “I told you so.” But youdidn't.

记得那天，我拖你去海滩，而正如你所说的下了雨，

我以为你会说，“我早告诉过你，”

但是你没有。

Butyou put up with me, and loved me, and protected me.

Therewere lots of things I wanted to make up to you when you returned from Vietnam.

Butyoudidn't.

是的，有许多的事你都没有做，

而是容忍我、钟爱我、保护我，

等你从越南回来，有许多许多事情我要回报你，

但是你没有。
