敘述一位阿姆的歌迷寫信給阿姆的故事(先看完歌詞在看MV比較有劇情性)


My tea’s gone cold I’m wondering why I..我的茶已經冷了而我疑惑著為什麼我...
got out of bed at all 為什麼要起床
The morning rain clouds up my window..早晨的雨讓我的窗戶變的霧濛濛
and I can’t see at all 我看不見任何東西
And even if I could it’ll all be gray, 即時我能看到也是灰色的一片
but your picture on my wall 但是你的照片在我牆上
It reminds me, that it’s not so bad, 它提醒著我, 一切並沒有那麼糟糕
it’s not so bad.. 並沒有那麼糟
