听歌学口语:Lights 头也不回的向着光亮走下去
2020年《Lights》迎来了10岁生日,这首歌是英国歌手Ellie Goulding的成名曲,现在已经获得美国唱片业协会五白金认证。其中歌词灵感来源于她童年时期的黑暗恐惧症,轻灵舞动的电音如同闪烁在夜空中的漫天星光,希望这首歌,能让迷茫无助的听众,走出黑暗,迎接光明。
双语歌词
I had a way then losing it all on my own
曾经有光明前途,但我迷失自我
I had a heart then but the queen has been overthrown
曾经有颗善良之心,但它早已陷入黑暗
And I'm not sleeping now the dark is too hard to beat
如今我无法成眠,那黑暗我无法抵抗
And I'm not keeping now the strength I need to push me
如今我无以为继需要一股力量拯救我
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
是你给我希望之光使我免于行尸走肉
You shine It when I'm alone
当我孤单时你闪烁着光芒
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
我暗自告诉自己一定要坚强起来
And dreaming when they're gone
想像黑暗消失的日子
Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
因为他们一直催促我呼唤我回家
Calling, calling, calling home
呼唤着我
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
你给我希望之光让我不会变成行尸走肉
You shine It when I'm alone
当我孤单时你闪烁着光芒
Home

Noises, I play within my head
噪音充斥我的脑海
Touch my own skin and hope that I'm still breathing
触摸我的肌肤 希望我仍活着
And I think back to when my brother and my sister slept
我怀念过去兄弟姐妹安然入睡的日子
In an unlocked place the only time I feel safe
在一个无拘无束的地方我才感到安全
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
你展现的光芒使我免于行尸走肉
You shine it when I'm alone
当我独自一人时你照亮它
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
我告诉自己我将会坚强起来
And dreaming when they're gone
