On a postcard by a glass of wine
Di kartu pos di samping segelas anggur
In a small café just outside of Paris
Di sebuah kafe kecil di luar Paris
By a rope swing danglin in the breeze
Di ayunan tali yang bergoyang di angin
Carved in the bark of a dogwood tree in Kansas
Terukir di kulit pohon dogwood di Kansas
Someone took a chance
Seseorang berani mengambil risiko
Someone let it show
Seseorang memperlihatkannya
Someone had to get it out, let somebody know
Seseorang harus mengungkapkannya, memberi tahu seseorang

Somebody wrote love in a permanent way
Seseorang menulis cinta dengan cara yang abadi
Somebody wrote love and the world was changed
Seseorang menulis cinta dan dunia pun berubah
Just a simple word but it can do so much,
Hanya sebuah kata sederhana tapi bisa berarti banyak,
In a space, where nothing was
Di tempat yang sebelumnya kosong
Somebody wrote love
Seseorang menulis cinta
Somebody wrote love
Seseorang menulis cinta

With a red crayon on a notebook sheet
Dengan krayon merah di selembar kertas catatan
Spelled out with a backwards “e” in first grade
Dieja dengan “e” terbalik di kelas satu
On a overpass out side of town
Di jembatan layang di luar kota
Hearts, spray painted around, two names
Hati, dicat semprot di sekelilingnya, dua nama
Someone took a chance
Seseorang berani mengambil risiko
Someone let it show
Seseorang memperlihatkannya
Since I met you girl, I want the world to know
Sejak aku bertemu kamu, aku ingin dunia tahu

Somebody wrote love in a permanent way
Seseorang menulis cinta dengan cara yang abadi
Somebody wrote love and the world was changed
Seseorang menulis cinta dan dunia pun berubah
Just a simple word but it can do so much,
Hanya sebuah kata sederhana tapi bisa berarti banyak,
In a space, where nothing was
Di tempat yang sebelumnya kosong
Somebody wrote love
Seseorang menulis cinta

In the way that you love me,
Dalam cara kamu mencintaiku,
In the things that you do,
Dalam hal-hal yang kamu lakukan,
When you first took hold of me, baby that’s when I knew…
Saat kamu pertama kali memegang tanganku, sayang, saat itulah aku tahu…

Somebody wrote love in a permanent way
Seseorang menulis cinta dengan cara yang abadi
Somebody wrote love and my world was changed
Seseorang menulis cinta dan duniamu pun berubah
Just a simple word but it can do so much,
Hanya sebuah kata sederhana tapi bisa berarti banyak,
In a space, where nothing was
Di tempat yang sebelumnya kosong
