酥油茶的雜七雜八隨筆

無意間在Spotify聽到的歌，
好久沒有聽到這麼簡單的一首歌，讓我想到大學時代的"清華情歌"

So if I stand in front of a speeding car
所以如果我站在奔馳中的快車前
Would you tell me who you are, what you like?
你會告訴我妳是誰嗎?妳喜歡什麼?
What's on your mind, if I'd get it right?
妳在想什麼?我做對了嗎?
How I love that no one knows
沒人知道我怎麼愛
And these secrets all that we've got so far
我們擁有的這些秘密
The demons in the dark, lie again
黑暗中的魔鬼，再度出現
Play pretends like it never ends
彷彿永遠不會停止的虛偽謊言
This way no one has to know
這沒人需要知道

She is something to behold
她讓我看得入神
Elegant and bold
優雅而出眾
She is electricity
她是一道閃電
Running to my soul
打進我的靈魂裡

I don't speak the language that you speak
我不會說妳的語言
There're​ some words I know I'll never reach
有些字我知道我永遠聽不懂
But when I see you smiling back at me
但當我看到妳對著我微笑時

See those birds going across the sky
看看那些飛過天空的鳥兒
Three thousand miles they fly
牠們飛了三千哩
How do they know which way to go?
但他們怎麼知道要往哪飛呢
Somehow they always seem to know
不知為何，他們總是知道
They say there's mother nature in everything we see
他們說大自然存在視力所及的任何地方
Wish I had a little mother nature in me
真希望我也能擁有這種力量
Wish I had a little mother nature in me
真希望我也能擁有這種力量

Tom Odell的新歌，比起上一張專輯，感覺很有力量
不知道是咬字的關係還是怎樣，好像可以感受到他的憤怒...

 
Help me understand
幫我了解
The war you're fighting 
妳在打的這場仗
We'll never have a chance if you fire blindly
如果妳毫無目的的開火，我們是贏不了的
you're circling the atmosphere
妳在上空盤旋
Unsure if I'll disappear
不確定我會不會消失
I'm not going nowhere
但我哪兒也不去
Open your eyes
張開妳的雙眼

There was a boy, there was a girl
這裡有一個男孩、跟一個女孩
She had a heart, he had a world
女孩有一顆真心，男孩有整個世界

When my heart is ready to burst
當我的心快要爆炸
When the world spins in reverse
當這世界開始迴轉
I'll keep running
我會繼續奔跑
To the place where I belong
奔向我的歸屬

Life's too short to even care at all oh
人生太短了，管不了太多
I'm losing my mind, losing my mind, losing control
我快瘋了，快瘋了，失去控制
These fishes in the sea, they're staring at me oh oh
這些海裡的魚，他們都在瞪著我
Oh oh oh oh
A wet world aches for a beat of a drum
這潮濕的世界需要一些鼓聲
Oh
