作曲：Jimmy Buffett

Payphones all were ringing as the crowd went roarin by

Lovely dancers swayin to an island lullaby

Beside the southern ocean taking stock of what to be

Writing you this letter that you probably never see

But I can help but be

Ruled by inconsistencies

Not unique just distantly in love

Tried to phone from Paris thinking things could be arranged

Me and you would rendezvous but I found your number changed

So I drove to San Remo where the crazy painter dwells

Toasted our old photograph still up there on his shelf

But I can help but be

Ruled by my antiquities

Not unique just distantly in love

I can be the one to fill

Your times and all your places

I can be the one to fill

Your blanks and empty spaces

I heard it from a friend of ours I saw in Timber Bay

You had a new lover who had stolen you away

That could be the reason that I never got in touch

May present slight problems if he loves you half as much

As I who can help but be

Ruled by my antiquities

Not unique just distantly in love

You know I can help but be

Part of my own philosophies

Not unique just distantly in love
