《不死鸟》 – Love is a spark, lost in the dark, too soon


你记得我眼睛的颜色、喜欢的明星、爱画的妆容、走路的姿势和写下的笔迹,我站在你的面前,拥有同样的一切,只是换了面容,你却再不认得。因为战争,我给了你我能给的所有,相信你的理由和背叛的借口,却依旧等来的是一份离婚书。你是我活下来的所有动力,但回不去的昨天和我们让我又死一遍。在我面前,我天真地幻想,你还是你,可你的虚伪最终让我的绝望无处遁形。在你面前,我从不是我,是金钱,是遗产,是美好生活,但就不是我,直到我高声唱起Speak Low,还好音乐不会伪装。我还是没有杀掉你,我并不确定自己是否已成功化身重生的凤凰,但至少,我离开了。我期待自己真正涅槃的那一天。

主题歌《Speak Low》是Kurt Weill在1943年写的,被Billie Holiday、芭芭拉史翠珊等无数人翻唱过,不过我最喜欢的是Norah Jones和Tony Bennett合唱的这一版。

Speak low when you speak, love
Our summer day withers away too soon, too soon
Speak low when you speak, love
Our moment is swift, like ships adrift, we’re swept apart, too soon
Speak low, darling, speak low
Love is a spark, lost in the dark too soon, too soon
I feel wherever I go
That tomorrow is near, tomorrow is here and always too soon
Time is so old and love so brief
Love is pure gold and time a thief
We’re late, darling, we’re late
The curtain descends, everything ends too soon, too soon
I wait, darling, I wait
Will you speak low to me, speak love to me and soon
Time is so old and love so brief
Love is pure gold and time a thief
We’re late, darling, we’re late
The curtain descends, everything ends too soon, too soon
I wait, darling, I wait
Will you speak low to me, speak love to me and soon
Speak low
