 今天听一首Westlife的歌，《Beautiful World》。 西城与后街可以算是最广为人知的两个外国男子组合，广为人知到什么程度呢，当年我要去看西城的告别巡演，连宿管阿姨都知道他们的代表作是《My Love》，确实，这首歌应该是很多人的英文歌启蒙曲。 那年西城解散的时候，我很难过，这是我最喜欢的外国组合，因为我觉得他们给人一种温暖的感觉。最后一张专辑里的《Beautiful World》很让人惊艳，与他们过去的风格有些不一样。 当时我正面临着人生的一个重大选择，是这首歌帮我下定了决心。不过，现在回头再看，那个选择其实并不重大。人生啊，很多我们以为很重要的决定，其实都不算什么，有些可笑，又有些无奈。 歌词如下： Here we go, lost in the lessons. Sometimes I mess up my intentions I get lost, t he cost was losing everything I've known. Laying here, staring at the ceiling. Sometimes still dealing with the feelings. Where I've been, what I've done, I 'm so far out there on my own. So quick to point the finger, to find the one to blame. So hard to realize I kept getting in my own way. I never thought that I was that strong. To carry on, carry on tonight Forgiveness in your eyes with nothing to hide. All I know, it's shown me it's a beautiful world. Oh, it's a beautiful world.(Oh~) No more fearing my reflection Here I am with these imperfections. You know my flaws but you don't care, you take them all. Till now I was barely breathing. But you gave me something to believe in. We're writing history, life's made up of small victories. We could go round in circles and never get to here So good to realize that we have nothing left to fear. I never thought that I was that strong. To carry on, carry on tonight. Forgiveness in your eyes. Nothing to hide. All I know, it's shown me it's a beautiful world. Oh, it's a beautiful world.(Oh~) So quick to point the finger when it was me to blame. So hard to realize I kept getting in my own way. I never thought that I was that strong. To carry on, carry on tonight. Forgiveness in your eyes. There's nothing to hide. All I know, it's shown me it's a beautiful world. Oh, the stars alight, Let's watch its shine for you and I. Oh, these open skies, can we just lie here a while? In this beautiful world. I never thought that I was that strong. To carry on. It's a beautiful world. It’s a beautiful world. |
