Today I got a long letter 今天我收到了一封长信

From one who still cares for me 从一个谁仍然关心我

She asked lots of questions 她问很多的问题

Like would I call her sometime 就像我会打电话给她一段时间

And was I gettin' back on my feet 而被我刚开了回来我的脚

   

She asked if I had quit drinkin' 她问我是否有退出喝酒“

Like I promised her long ago 就像我早就答应了她

The words wouldn't come 这句话会不会来

When I called and she answered 当我叫她回答

Oh, but I found a way to say no 呵呵，不过我发现了一种说不

   

[Chorus:] [合唱： ]

I sent her some wine colored roses 我给她发了些酒颜色的玫瑰

The color of grapes on the vine 葡萄在藤蔓的颜色

When she sees the wine colored roses 当她看到葡萄酒色的玫瑰

They'll tell her I'm still on the wine 他们会告诉她我还在酒

   

[Instrumental] [器乐]

   

The roses will say I still love her 玫瑰会说我还爱她

And their color will cause her to cry 和他们的颜色会令她哭了

One dozen reasons to tell her I'm sorry 一打的原因告诉她对不起

And twelve pretty flowers don't lie 而12美丽的花朵是不会说谎的

   

[Chorus:] [合唱： ]

I sent her some wine colored roses 我给她发了些酒颜色的玫瑰

The color of grapes on the vine 葡萄在藤蔓的颜色

When she sees the wine colored roses 当她看到葡萄酒色的玫瑰

They'll tell her I'm still on the wine 他们会告诉她我还在酒

   

I sent her some wine colored roses... 我给她发了些酒颜色的玫瑰...
