前幾天開車的時候,聽到Elton John(艾爾頓‧強)的” Your Song”,有種莫名的感動浮上心頭,在Elton John的歌聲中,回想起過去的一切...。

Elton John也是我很喜歡的歌手,不過我最先被他的歌聲吸引,是他在1997年演唱的”Candle In the Wind ”這首歌, Elton John為紀念戴安娜王妃車禍殞命,將原來於1973年為瑪麗蓮‧夢露所作的”Candle In the Wind”改寫歌詞而成,那時候我買了這首歌的單曲CD。後來又陸續聽到Elton John的其他歌曲,這首” Your Song”曾經在電影”紅磨坊”中也被翻唱過,不過我還是很喜歡原唱Elton John的演唱,清亮的嗓音彷彿唱到心底深處。

如果我的2007有一首代表歌,如果我所做過的事能以某種型式留下記錄,那麼,我的朋友,就讓我以這首歌跟你們分享。

” Your Song”,獻給我的家人及朋友,也獻給我的2007。


"Your song"by Elton John

It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside
說來有點好笑,這內心的感覺
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
我不是個容易隱藏情緒的人
I don't have much money. But boy if I did
我沒有很多錢,但假使我有
I'd buy a big house where we both could live
我會買棟可供我們同住的大房子


If I was a sculptor, but then again no
如果我是雕刻家,雖然我仍然不是
Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show
或者我是位巡迴演出的魔法師
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
我知道這樣不夠,但我已盡力
My gift is my song and this one's for you
我的禮物就是這首獻給你的歌


And you can tell everybody this is your song
你可以告訴每一個人,這是你的歌
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
它也許很簡單,但終究已經完成
I hope you don't mind
希望你不介意
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
不介意我所寫下的歌詞
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
世上有了你,人生多美好


I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
我坐在屋頂上,腳踢著苔蘚
Well a few of the verses
為了思考押韻的韻腳
Well they've got me quite cross
快把我想瘋了
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
還好我在寫這首歌的時候,陽光和煦
It's for people like you that keep it turned on
都是因為你的緣故


So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do
請原諒我的記性,我所做過的事
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
我早已忘記它們的緣由
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
無論如何,我做的一切都是真心的
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
你有一雙我見過最美的的眼睛


And you can tell everybody this is your song
你可以告訴每一個人,這是你的歌
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
它也許很簡單,但終究已經完成
I hope you don't mind
希望你不介意
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
不介意我所寫下的歌詞
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
世上有了你,人生多美好


I hope you don't mind
希望你不介意
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
不介意我所寫下的歌詞
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
世上有了你,人生多美好
