River of Dreams (Billy Joel)

很久,很久,很久以前,我獨自一人開長途,開夜車去紐約,夜深沉....

車在黑暗中行駛,兩道車燈隻照亮前方不遠的地方.車道兩旁雖不是叢山峻嶺,卻也是山路起伏,高低忽悠;偶爾路過的小鎮,加油站點點燈火,迎頭開來的車輛,給夜行的我帶來一絲絲的光亮,一線線的生機,然後又是無盡的黑暗和寂靜,除了汽車引擎的聲音.....

時間在緩慢地度過,拌隨著間隔的寂寞和困意;寂寞沒有隨著時間的推移而減少而,而困意則隨著道路開闊而加大,古典音樂這時成了催眠曲....於是不停地調換汽車音樂頻道,想找出能讓自己保持清醒的音樂....忽然"In the middle of the night"飄進了我的耳朵,精神為之一震. 我不就是In the middle of the night嗎? 剩下的歌詞已不記得了,隻是In the middle of the night一句在車裏飄了一夜,又飄了很多,很多,年........

曾想過寫一個係列,一首歌,一段情.在我們人生的每個階段,我們所聽的歌曲,音樂,都銘記著我們那個時期的喜怒哀樂,也許等我老了以後........



River of Dreams (Billy Joel)

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
From the mountains of faith
To the river so deep
I must be lookin' for something
Something sacred i lost
But the river is wide
And it's too hard to cross
even though I know the river is wide
I walk down every evening and stand on the shore
I try to cross to the opposite side
So I can finally find what I've been looking for
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the valley of fear
To a river so deep
I've been searching for something
Taken out of my soul
Something I'd never lose
Something somebody stole
I don't know why I go walking at night
But now I'm tired and I don't want to walk anymore
I hope it doesn't take the rest of my life
Until I find what it is I've been looking for
(Three beat Pause)
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the jungle of doubt
To the river so deep
I know I'm searching for something
Something so undefined
That it can only be seen
By the eyes of the blind
In the middle of the night (break)

I’m not sure about a life after this
God knows I've never been a spiritual man
Baptized by the fire, I wade into the river
That is runnin' through the promised land (Long Five beat Pause)

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the desert of truth
To the river so deep
We all end in the ocean
We all start in the streams
We're all carried along
By the river of dreams
In the middle of the night
