| 作曲 : Costello, Mann | |
| 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 |
