今年天涼得早,最近也開始滴滴答答下起雨來,看來今年會是個典型的冬天。這個季節,就會想到這首歌~Try to Remember。
這首歌是音樂劇The Fantasticks裡面的曲子,因為曲調優美,廣受喜愛,流傳至今。
我在德州大學的時候就聽過有人表演,作詞者和作曲者都是德大畢業的喔,與有榮焉。 剛剛在找資料時才非常驚訝地發現,作曲者的生日竟跟我同一天呢!
裡面有很多押韻的字,請大家細細品味,同時學學英文。
Try to Remember lyrics by Tom Jones, music by Harvey Schmidt from the musical "TheFantasticks"
Try to remember the kind of September
When life was slow and oh so mellow
Try to remember the kind of September
When grass was green and grain was yellow
Try to remember the kind of September
When you were a tender and callow fellow
Try to remember and if you remember
Then follow
Follow follow follow...
Try to remember when life was so tender
That no one wept except the willow
Try to remember when life was so tender
That dreams were kept beside your pillow
Try to remember when life was so tender
That love was an ember about to billow
Try to remember and if you remember
Then follow
Follow follow follow...
Deep in December it's nice to remember
Although you know the snow will follow
Deep in December it's nice to remember
Without a hurt the heart is hollow
Deep in December it's nice to remember
The fire of September that made you mellow
Deep in December our hearts should remember
And follow...
