風の音を奏でるオーボエから語りに至るイントロが，素晴らしい。が，まず，情景描写が絶妙なのだ。記憶に焼けつく1枚のペーパー，そして別のペーパー.....さらには現実に目の前にあるもう一枚のペーパー。
ジミー・ウェブ，そしてグレン・キャンベルについては，続きがあります。
Once I had a piece of paper
It was supposed to mean that you were mine
It looked like any other piece of paper,
But I thought there was love between the lines,
But it was...
Just another piece of paper
And it really didn't mean one little thing
To you from the very start
Just another piece of paper
Now I got another piece of paper
Your lawyer, he sent it in the mail today
It looks like any other piece of paper
But it says that you have gone away to stay
And it is...
Just another piece of paper
Blowing in an empty wind
That slows into my heart
Just another piece of paper
Tearing us apart
And it is...
Glen Campbell(left) & Jimmy Webb (August 15, 1946-)
