  • 作词 : Elvis Costello
    作曲 : Elvis Costello
    Shall we agree that just this once
    I'm gonna change my life
    Until it's just as tiny or
    Important as you like
    And in time, we won't even recall that we spoke
    Words that turned out to be as big as smoke
    Like smoke, disappears in the air
    There's always something smouldering somewhere
    I know it don't make a difference to you
    But oh, it sure made a difference to me
    You'll see me off in the distance, I hope
    At the other end
    At the other end of the telescope
    There was a time not long ago
    I dreamt that the world was flat
    And all the colours bled away
    And that was that
    And in time, I could only believe in one thing
    The sky was just phosphourus stars hung on strings
    And you swore that they'd always be mine
    When you can pull them down anytime
    I know it don't make a difference to you
    But oh, it sure made a difference to me
    You'll see me off in the distance, I hope
    At the other end
    At the other end of the telescope
    There, there baby now, don't say a word
    Lie down baby, your vision is blurred
    Your head is so sore from all of that thinking
    I don't want to hurt you now
    But I think you're shrinking (I think you're shrinking)
    You're half-naked ambition and
    You're half out of your wits
    And though your wristwatch always works
    Your necktie never fits
    Now its so hard to pick the receiver up
    And when I call, I never noticed you could be so small
    The answer was under your nose
    But the question never arose
    I know it don't make a difference to you
    But oh, it sure made a difference to me
    When you find me here at the end of my rope
    When the head and heart of it finally elope
    You can see us off in the distance, I hope
    At the other end
    At the other end of the telescope
