萱小妞秘密部落格

妞兒好喜歡這首歌，分享給所有我愛的女人們!

萱小妞不知道電腦裡哪來的這首歌，大概是吉仔上次分享給我

我一直把它放在電腦中讀書樂的歸類裡

每回讀書電腦自動隨機到這首曲子時，總被它的旋律吸引

聽完後常忍不住又多播它兩次，但老沒仔細聽她再唱啥

直到今天心血來潮估狗它一翻

才發現我真正被吸引的原因

這個歌手叫做Corinne Bailey Rae(肯妮貝兒)

是個英國黑人小妞

她的聲音有一種柔軟靈魂的韻味，

好叫人著迷

所有我愛的女孩們，

我知道我們現在都各分東西，各自為各自的夢想和目標而努力

有的時候阿 覺得好孤單、好寂寞

一個小小的身軀隻身在這個偌大的世界裡闖蕩

原本以為堅強的信念阿

一不小心就會迸裂支解 衰敗於無形

這個時候，更懷念那些擁有彼此的日子

聽聽這首歌吧

我想送這首歌給妳們(還有給自己)

請不要忘記了，我們都是那樣的美好!!

一直都是!

歌詞: (翻譯不甚完整，讀原文更美!)

three little birds sat on my window 窗邊飛來 了三隻小雀
and they told me i don't need to worry 它們似乎告訴我要好好放輕鬆
summer came like cinnamon, so sweet. 夏天的味道像肉桂香般如此甜美
little girls double-dutch on the concrete 看著大街上女孩們開心的玩著跳繩

maybe sometimes, 也許 有時候
we've got it wrong but it's alright.做自己其實也沒什麼不好ㄚ
the more things seem to change,物換星移
the more they stay the same.但舊愛還是最美
ooo, don’t you hesitate.好啦別再胡思亂想了

*girl put your records on,女孩 點一首歌吧
tell me your favourite song. 告訴我妳最愛哪一首歌
you go ahead let your hair down. 讓自己心情隨風飛揚吧
sapphire and faded jeans, 穿上妳最愛的褪色牛仔褲
i hope you get your dreams.祝妳美夢 成真
just go ahead let your hair down.讓心像風箏般隨風飛

you're going to find yourself somewhere, somehow.學會多愛自己一點吧

blue as the sky, 藍藍 的天空
sunburnt and lonely, 寂靜午後的暖暖陽光
sipping tea in a bar by the roadside.在路邊啜著茶
just relax, just relax. 讓心像風箏般隨風飛吧
don't you let those other boys fool you. 再也別聽那些男孩們胡說八道
got to love that afro hair do. 要學會愛上妳那純真可愛的黑人頭

'twas more than i could take. 我也曾和你一樣
pity for pity's sake. 也曾自哀自憐

that you don't even have to try any longer? 別再苦苦掙扎
