聽歌學口語:Lights 頭也不回的向着光亮走下去大綱
2020年《Lights》迎來了10歲生日,這首歌是英國歌手Ellie Goulding的成名曲,現在已經獲得美國唱片業協會五白金認證。其中歌詞靈感來源於她童年時期的黑暗恐懼症,輕靈舞動的電音如同閃爍在夜空中的漫天星光,希望這首歌,能讓迷茫無助的聽眾,走出黑暗,迎接光明。
雙語歌詞
I had a way then losing it all on my own
曾經有光明前途,但我迷失自我
I had a heart then but the queen has been overthrown
曾經有顆善良之心,但它早已陷入黑暗
And I'm not sleeping now the dark is too hard to beat
如今我無法成眠,那黑暗我無法抵抗
And I'm not keeping now the strength I need to push me
如今我無以為繼需要一股力量拯救我
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
是你給我希望之光使我免於行屍走肉
You shine It when I'm alone
當我孤單時你閃爍着光芒
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
我暗自告訴自己一定要堅強起來
And dreaming when they're gone
想像黑暗消失的日子
Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
因為他們一直催促我呼喚我回家
Calling, calling, calling home
呼喚着我
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
你給我希望之光讓我不會變成行屍走肉
You shine It when I'm alone
當我孤單時你閃爍着光芒
Home

Noises, I play within my head
噪音充斥我的腦海
Touch my own skin and hope that I'm still breathing
觸摸我的肌膚 希望我仍活着
And I think back to when my brother and my sister slept
我懷念過去兄弟姐妹安然入睡的日子
In an unlocked place the only time I feel safe
在一個無拘無束的地方我才感到安全
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
你展現的光芒使我免於行屍走肉
You shine it when I'm alone
當我獨自一人時你照亮它
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
我告訴自己我將會堅強起來
And dreaming when they're gone
