Both Sides, Now





最近在台北买了两张 Ann Sally 的专辑,她在其中一张专辑里翻唱了这首歌。她的歌声,很迷人,很美。

现在开车时、独处时、脑海里不停重播的,就是这首很美丽的歌。

Rows and flows of angel's hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feathered canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds that way

But now they only block the sun
They rain and they snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way.

I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, but still somehow
It's cloud illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all.

Moon and Junes and Ferris wheels
That dizzy dancing way you feel
As every fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way.

But now it's just another show
You leave them laughing when you go
And if you care, don't let them know
Don't give yourself away.

I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, but still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all.

Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say "I love you" right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way

But now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
Well something's lost, but something's gained
In living every day.

I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose, but still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all.

-- Joni Mitchell

P.S. 谢谢你们的关心。其实,写上一篇日记时心情不算太低落,只是有点小感触,灵感来了,就写了一段文字抒发心情。那段文字也不会很忧郁啊...其实还蛮乐观的,不是吗?

没事就好。哈哈这两个早上听妳和志勇,艾薇的《就是万人迷》,感觉三人之间的默契不错。希望《就是万人迷》越做越好,继续当早上时段的冠军。

By the way, though Man Utd had a bad start to the season, I'm sure everything will go back on track after Ronaldo and Rooney are back and Tevez fits into the style of the team. C'mon Red Devils!!!
