Today Is A Gift

(2013-01-11 07:02:44) 下一個


 

Song: Today
Artist: Bobby Goldsboro

While the blossoms still cling to the vine
I'll taste your strawberries
I'll drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
I forget all the joy that is mine

I'll be a dandy, and I'll be a rover
You'll know who I am by the songs that I sing
I'll feast at your table, I'll lie in your clover
Who cares what tomorrow may bring

I can't be contented with yesterdays glory
I can't live on promises winter to spring
For this is my moment, this is my story
I'll laugh and I'll cry and I'll sing

While the blossoms still cling to the vine
I'll taste your strawberries
I'll drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
I forget all the joy that is mine

說起《Today》這首歌曲,還挺有趣的,是在網友博客裏留言互動,網友特意貼的。我在網友的博客裏留言時,想起了一句英語格言:"Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a Gift. That's why it's called the Present" .

網友讀到我的留言,就想起了John Deven的《Today》, John Denver的歌曲我聽了不少,可是這首歌曲我卻是第一次聽到的。喜歡這首歌曲的旋律和歌詞,我就去YouTube上查詢,找到了John Denver和Bobby Goldsboro的演唱版本,但是John Denver的是現場版本,有掌聲和觀眾互動的聲音等,所以我選擇了Bobby Goldsboro的演唱版本,我也是第一次聽他的歌曲,頗為喜歡他的演繹。Bobby Goldsboro是美國的鄉村歌手,他的成名曲是《Honey》.

當我聽到Bobby Goldsboro唱道“While the blossoms still cling to the vine”,我腦海了就出現了的渥特豪斯的油畫,那優雅美麗的女人在春天裏摘著花兒, 還要杜十娘的詩行:“花開堪折直須折,莫待無花空折枝。”我不由地想到詩畫歌是相通的,詩體現著畫,畫描繪著詩,而歌則唱出了詩和畫。
