十多年前，因孩子們的緣故我開始接觸並喜歡上女兒們的偶像團體 Westlife。後來最具實力的 Brian McFadden 以要照顧家人為理由在2004年單飛，而這二首歌是收集在他單飛後所出的第一個專輯『愛爾蘭之子』裏。

Brian原本和英國著名電視節目主持人克裏有著一個美滿的婚姻，但是在 Brian和一個舞女發生了一夜情後，這椿婚姻觸了礁，最後導致離婚。

這二首歌曲是Brian對他那破碎婚姻的追悔和無奈，歌詞很感人（建議您一定要看這二首歌的歌詞）也很寫實。

最近因文學城裏的單親媽媽組和反家暴組的成員常來我們常青人生論壇，讓我感觸良多。

特貼這兩首我自己喜愛的歌，願還在婚姻中的朋友們能與你們的配偶一起聆聽這“過來人”的勸告和無奈。

第一首：『Sorry, Love Daddy』

歌詞：

It seems like only yesterday
I held you in my arms and said
You will never need to fear the dark

But unforeseen misery has come
Between your Mummy and me
We can love you more, now we're apart

Daddy, he's got to go away
'Cos there's just no other way
To live this through

Someday you'll learn to understand
This wasn't what I planned
For me and you
Sorry, love Daddy

Everyday is filled with pain
But never feel that you're to blame
Sometimes life breaks
In mysterious ways

I can make it up to you
Believe me, I am trying to
No matter what
You'll always be my babies

Daddy, he's got to go away
'Cos there's just no other way
To live this through

Someday you'll learn to understand
This wasn't what I planned
For me and you
Sorry, love Daddy

Daddy, he's got to go away
'Cos there's just no other way
To live this through

Someday you'll learn to understand
This wasn't what I planned
For me and you
Sorry, love Daddy

第二首『Be True To Your Woman』

歌詞：

I was talking last night
To a friend who was thinking he might
Risk it all for a moment of lust
and adventure, so I told him

You can live everyday like your last
Pay the price and the moment will past
It's too late and there's no second chance
If it's over, you got nothing

Well I've been there
The grass was just fine on this side
Because I've been there
There's no getting back on that ride
There's no replacing the love you got
You don't have to lose to see what you've lost
Well just be true to your woman

No good living the lie
When it's over the secret won't die
She'll move on to another guy
She won't love you, like your wife

And I've been there

I don't recommend the pain
Because I've been there
Trust me as your friend
There's nothing to gain
There's no replacing the love you got
You don't have to lose to see what you've lost
Oh, just be true to your woman

Many years, working hard, everyone,
Gets tempted by something
They never knew, never had
The fantasy overtakes, over-rides, everything
And you'll get lost in a hollow world

All those years they are worth the lot
You only realise when they've gone
Then just be true
There's no replacing the love you got
You don't have to lose to see what you've lost
Just be true to your woman
