Golden

Shadows run and darkness fades
When you come around
My single star amongst the gray
Always shining down

——《Golden》 Lady Antebellum。




爱情

不是退缩,不是忍让
是在天黑以前想起对方
雨滴还没落地之前

我在这,别怕。

The sunset falls in Wichita, yellow dances through the blue
Wheat fields catch a glimpse of heaven, makes me think of you
And even when you're miles away,
You're always on my mind
Lord knows you're in my heart
Even when I close my eyes

You are golden,
Precious as a prayer flying up through the air
While the rain is falling
Golden, timeless as a kiss
Baby I don't wanna miss another perfect moment
To tell you, how you make me feel
The day you strolled in, my heart was stolen
Cause you are golden

Smallest parts of who you are
Are everything to me
From the way you laugh to the way you cry
To the way you love on me
Shadows run and darkness fades
When you come around
My single star amongst the gray
Always shining down

Yeah you are golden,
Precious as a prayer flying up through the air
While the rain is falling
Golden, timeless as a kiss
Baby I don't wanna miss another perfect moment
To tell you, how you make me feel
The day you strolled in, my heart was stolen
Cause you are golden

Lovely
Oh so hard to find
Yeah you are goodness, forgiveness
Of the purest kind
Oh yeah

From the day you strolled in, my heart was stolen
You'll be the hand I'm holding,
When the heavens open
Cause you are golden, yeah.

接触到 Lady Antebellum 这支美国乡村乐团是从电台帮他们打歌《Need You Now》的时候。


那时候的乐坛,要以纯乡村风格(Country Folk Genre)走江湖是件颇难的事。
就连现在红到爆灯的 Taylor Swift 在那段期间仍处在摸索自己方向的时期,所以我真正欣赏的乡村歌手只有那几位,其中不老神话 Allison Krauss。
她唱的《When You Say Nothing At All》现在还在我的 replay list 里 :)


虽说,Lady Antebellum 的那首 《Need You Now》,轻摇滚的曲风我听着很喜欢,却没有去下载他们整张专辑的冲动,或许是忙着课业吧。
后来,再发新专辑的时候被那首《Just A Kiss》吸引住了,也下载了完整的专辑,同个时期也有个知音阿真陪我一起聊音乐,我的中学生涯就在讨论《Cold As Stone》还是《Dancin' Away With My Heart》比较好听,这样度过了。


这首歌虽然不是什么第一主打,也不是第二主打,但歌词把爱情说的如此恬静地美丽,不喧哗,不认命,把缘分当作上天的默许。好喜欢。
Golden,意黄金。我们对于黄金的第一概念是:财富。
你看,他们把财富说成是心灵的财富了。
You are golden,这是一句多么动听的告白。


有机会的话一定要去听听 Lady Antebellum 的歌,最重要的还是要看歌词。
一字一句都会说进你的心坎里,那种淡淡的,生活上的小片段。
