"Could you be dead?......
Can I confess I've been hanging around your old address?
The years have proved to offer nothing since you moved
You're long gone but I can't move on"

--EBTG, "Missing"

"I still haven't got over it even now.
I want to spend huge amounts of time on my own.
I don't want to cause any serious damage.
I want to make sure that I can manage..."

--EBTG, "Rollercoaster" (from《Amplified Heart》專輯)

《Amplified Heart》是標誌英國雙人組EBTG (Everything but the girl)演唱事業分水嶺的一張專輯，尤其在單曲"Missing"的舞曲混音版爆紅之後，曲風明顯改變。

但我還是比較喜歡這張專輯，不僅因為這是Ben Watt大病初癒後的產物，對人生有更深刻的體會，也因為對我個人具有重要的意義。

謹與有興趣的朋友分享--特別是自己或身邊人是悶葫蘆型的朋友。

偶爾聽聽，宣洩一下思念、憂鬱、溝通不良等等負面情緒，比較健康！
(但若是愈聽心情愈糟，恐怕就不適合你... ^_^")

Missing

I step off the train
I'm walking down your street again and past your door
But you don't live there any more
It's years since you've been there
But now you've disappeard somewhere like outer space
You've found some better place

And I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain

Could you be dead?
You always were two steps ahead of everyone
We'd walk behind while you would run
I look up at your house
And I can almost hear you shout down to me
Where I always used to be

And I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain

Back on the train
I ask why did I come again?
Can I confess I've been hanging around your old address?
And the years have proved to offer nothing since you moved
You're long gone
But I can't move on

And I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain

Rollercoaster

I still haven't got over it even now.
I want to spend huge amounts of time on my own.
I don't want to cause any serious damage.
I want to make sure that I can manage,
because I'm not really in your head,
I'm not really in your head.

And I see love and disaffection
and the clouds build up and won't pass over.
This is my road to my redemption.
And my life is just an image of a rollercoaster anyway.

I still haven't got over it even now.
I want to spend huge amounds of time in my room.
And I'm not coming out until I feel I'm ready,
not running out while my heart's unsteady,
and I'm not really in your head.
I'm not really in your head.

When your sky falls to minus zero,
well some things must dissappear.
Oh this is my road to my redemption.

And my life is just an image of a rollercoaster anyway.
The names may have been changed but the faces are the same
The names may have been changed but as people we're not the same.

And I'm not, no I'm not, no I'm not
really in your head.

And my life is just an image of a rollercoaster anyway.
Yeah, my life is just an image of a rollercoaster anyway.
