Lyrics---Angel (Sara Mclachlan)

歌詞分享---Angel (Sara Mclachlan)

X情人大概是除了麻雀變鳳凰>(這當然是經典之外,少數幾部我喜歡的愛情電影。不過,我不是要介紹電影,而是要介紹電影中膾炙人口的插曲---Angel。這首歌曲的旋律緩慢卻簡單,雖屬於C大調,卻帶有小調的淡淡憂傷;女主唱Sara Mclachlan的嗓音獨特,她既不飆出令人情緒激昂的高音,也不使用華麗刁鑽的轉音,只是低柔婉轉地吟唱,卻完美地結合旋律與歌詞,使得如此輕柔的一首歌強力地在聽者心中留下烙印

最近因為心情有些煩躁,既使久未調弦的鋼琴琴琴音令我有點受不了,還是重拾樂譜磨練磨練早已生疏的琴技。在一般的練習之後,我總喜歡彈一些能讓我放鬆的歌曲就是其一。奇妙的是,每當我彈奏這首歌曲的時候,Sara Mclachlan的聲音就會自動從記憶中浮現,彷彿就在我面前對我訴說:"you're in the arms of the angel."



Spend all your time waiting

For that second chance

For a break that would make it okay

There's always one reason

To feel not good enough

And it's hard at the end of the day

I need some distraction

Oh beautiful release

Memory seeps from my veins

Let me be empty

And weightless and maybe

I'll find some peace tonight



In the arms of an angel

Fly away from here

From this dark cold hotel room

And the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage

Of your silent reverie

You're in the arms of the angel

May you find some comfort there



So tired of the straight line

And everywhere you turn

There's vultures and thieves at your back

And the storm keeps on twisting

You keep on building the lie

That you make up for all that you lack

It don't make no difference

Escaping one last time

It's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh

This glorious sadness that brings me to my knees



In the arms of an angel

Fly away from here

From this dark cold hotel room

And the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage

Of your silent reverie

You’re in the arms of the angel

May you find some comfort there

You're in the arms of the angel

May you find some comfort here
