Love of my life
在Jim Brickman的所有曲子中,我最喜歡Love of my life。它是在Destiny這張專輯裡面發表的,不過他的填詞以及提供歌手發揮空間的譜曲,似乎讓它的知名度比主打的Destiny還要高。
它的填詞是充滿了LIFE、LOVE、FAITH、ANGEL等等充滿生命、信仰的字眼,基本上是把愛當成一生的信仰,給予最高的崇敬及渴求,這也是為什麼Love of my life會被用在婚禮上了。
其實我會這麼喜歡這首曲子,讓我頗恐慌的,它是比較符合適婚年齡附近的聽眾群吧......我這個未滿20歲的"kid"會相信這些,不知道是太幼稚還是太成熟.....
所以我對於沒有那種感覺的女生,儘管有點好感,還是會抱著寧缺勿濫的態度,不會主動去追求。可是對真的有感覺的人,又會猶豫到底要不要行動,能不能接受被拒絕,或是即便得到回應,又會不會因為太多的期待以及信仰,帶給雙方太多壓力及失望,毀了我珍惜的關係
這個問題還是要自己去尋找答案,靠不了別人。只是這個過程實在不好受......只好不斷寫東西跟聽音樂來抒發鬱悶,也許因為這樣有人還會認為我談戀愛了咧.....
I am amazed
When I look at you
I see you smiling back at me
It's like all my dreams come true
I am afraid
If I lost you girl
I'd fall through the cracks
And lose my track in this crazy lonely world
Sometimes it's so hard to believe
When the nights can be so long
And faith give me the strength
And kept me going on
Chorus:
You are the love of my life
And I'm so glad you found me
You are the love of my life
Baby put your arms around me
I guess this is how it feels
When you finally find something real
My angel in the night
You are the love
The love of my life
Now here you are
With midnight closing in
You take my hand as our shadows dance
With moonlite on your skin
I look in your eyes
I'm lost inside your kiss
I think if I'd never met you
About all the things I'd missed
Sometimes it's so hard to believe
When a love can be so strong
And faith give me the strength
And keep me holding on
