David Cook-Hello

其實一開始我很不喜歡這個人, 很傲氣, 很拽, 就會扮酷. 我對搖滾樂也一貫不太感冒. 不過有一次聽他唱Lionel Richie的Hello. 一下子感覺很不一樣. 他把這樣一首經典的情歌改成了搖滾風格, 居然很好聽. 當時評委們就建議他出單曲. 後來的采訪中Lionel Richie本人也對他大加讚賞.

Hello
By Lionel Richie

I've been alone with you inside my mind
And in my dreams I've kissed your lips a thousand times
I sometimes see you pass outside my door
Hello, is it me you're looking for?

I can see it in your eyes
I can see it in your smile
You're all I've ever wanted, (and) my arms are open wide
'Cause you know just what to say
And you know just what to do
And I want to tell you so much, I love you ...

I long to see the sunlight in your hair
And tell you time and time again how much I care
Sometimes I feel my heart will overflow
Hello, I've just got to let you know

'Cause I wonder where you are
And I wonder what you do
Are you somewhere feeling lonely, or is someone loving you?
Tell me how to win your heart
For I haven't got a clue
But let me start by saying, I love you ...

Hello, is it me you're looking for?
'Cause I wonder where you are
And I wonder what you do
Are you somewhere feeling lonely or is someone loving you?
Tell me how to win your heart
For I haven't got a clue
But let me start by saying ... I love you
