Birds on the wire

Birds on the wire


這首歌, 是我在上課時老師介紹的





其實就是一首情詩, 算嗎?


一個男生深愛另一個女生,


但是他想要自由,





嗯~





真實世界裡, 這種人會被罵混帳啦~


但是音樂真的很好聽喔..


有點慢, 有點寂莫, 似乎是歌手本人在描述


他的情非得己,





第一次聽只覺得好慢, 尤其是在星期六下午, 看完世界盃熬夜的隔天


有點催人眠的感覺....


但是回家之後, 卻發現, 腦海裡的旋律一直盤旋在腦海之中


就像某些美好的事物是必須要事後細細品味的


有時侯坐在電腦桌前, 有時侯坐在咖啡桌前,


突想就想哼哼這首歌(其實, 我不記得歌詞, 只記得旋律)





歌詞如下





Bird on the wire by Leonard Cohen





Like a bird on the wire,


Like a drunk in a midnight choir


I have tried in my way to be free.


Like a worm on a hook,


Like a knight from some old fashioned book


I have saved all my ribbons for thee.


If I, if I have been unkind,


I hope that you can just let it go by.


If I, if I have been untrue


I hope you know it was never to you.





Like a baby, stillborn,


Like a beast with his horn


I have torn everyone who reached out for me.


But I swear by this song


And by all that I have done wrong


I will make it all up to thee.


I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch,


He said to me, you must not ask for so much.


And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door,


She cried to me, hey, why not ask for more?





Oh like a bird on the wire,


Like a drunk in a midnight choir


I have tried in my way to be free.





過幾天, 等我有CD時, 再上傳和大家分享
