喜欢Jennifer Warnes ,从Hunter、the famouse blue rainjacket到the well,每一张专辑都听出耳油,成为我的CD收藏中的经典。听一次感动一次。
Too Late Love Comes这首歌来自the well专辑,也就是俗称的“枫叶情”大碟。歌词是Jennifer Warnes自己所写,非常非常的美,歌中唱到:I saw you coming over the hill,
So strong, so brave, so true。My treasure’s in the water now
My pearls are lost at sea。那是诗一般的语言。旋律也是带有美国西部的风格,幽怨、曲折、感性。这种意境令人想到冷山电影——一部近年最值得观看的电影之一。
简单的配器:吉他、曼陀铃、小提琴。录音更是一向的示范效果。
半夜12点的时分,我的眼泪差点就流了下来。
可惜不能上传,建议大家找来听听。
Too Late Love Comes
[Jennifer Warnes]
my home has been a warrior field
where now and then I’ve seen
a rainbow rising over the graves
down in the gentle green
and as I waltzed across the mine
time sped to breathlessly
as I fought for love
and I sang for love
too late, love comes to me
I saw you coming over the hill
So strong, so brave, so true
I fell down to my knees and cried
The way I used to do
It came at such surprise to me
I thought those tears had passed
Is it god who laughs this heart awake?
Too late, love comes at last
O lovers how they come and go
Like waves upon the shore
Brave hearts can drown in the briny deep
And still cry out for more
My treasure’s in the water now
My pearls are lost at sea
And my heart must bend like a rainbow
Too late, you’ve come to me
