All at Once (一夜之间)- 惠特尼 · 休斯顿:数颗颗眼泪 至少掉下一百万滴
戴上耳机听歌更有身临其境的感觉
惠特尼 · 休斯顿演唱的众多歌曲没人不喜欢。好不夸张地说,最受听众喜爱的《I Will Always Love You》(我永远爱你)传遍了世界。尽管本期分享的这首《All at Once》(一夜之间)没有《我永远爱你》那么流行,但从作曲、作词到惠特尼的演唱,都算得上一首一流的经典英文歌曲,而且是创作于三十六年前的一九八五年,说起来是一首老歌,但听上去却丝毫没有“老”的感觉。有人说这首歌甚至比《我永远爱你》还要好听。这个难讲,萝卜白菜各有所爱。不过《一夜之间》在起伏上和处理的细腻程度上不如前者。这首歌的歌词也写得比较特别,刻画了很多情感上的细节,比如“I started counting teardrops and at least a million fell——我开始数颗颗眼泪 至少掉下一百万滴”,“I looked around and found that you were with another love in someone else's arms ——环顾四周 我发现你已经另有所爱倒在了别人怀里”。
希望各位听友能够照例喜欢。祝大家听歌愉快!
All at Once
By Whitney Houston
All at once
一夜之间
I finally took a moment and I'm realizing that
我最终发现
You're not coming back
你不会再回来
And it finally hit me all at once
对我的打击太突然
All at once
一夜之间
I started counting teardrops and at least a million fell
我开始数颗颗眼泪 至少掉下一百万
My eyes began to swell
我的眼睛开始红肿
And all my dreams were shattered all at once
所有的美梦刹那间破碎
Ever since I met you
自从我遇见你
You're the only love I've known
你是我唯一的爱
And I can't forget you
我无法忘记你
Though I must face it all alone
尽管我必须独自面对
All at once
一夜之间
I'm drifting on a lonely sea
我便在没有你的大海漂泊
Wishing you'd come back to me
期盼你会回到我身边
And that's all that matters now
这才是我在乎的
All at once
一夜之间
I'm drifting on a lonely sea
我便在没有你的大海漂泊
Holding on to memories
坚守着对过去的回忆
And it hurts me more than you know
你不知道伤我有多深
So much more than it shows
深到你无法察觉
All at once
一夜之间
All at once
一夜之间
I looked around and found that you were with another love
环顾四周 我发现你已经另有所爱
In someone else's arms
倒在了别人怀里
And all my dreams were shattered
所有的美梦刹那间破碎
All at once
一夜之间
All at once
一夜之间
The smile that used to greet me
你曾经迎接我的笑容
Brightened someone else's day
照亮了别人的日子
She took your smile away
你的笑容属于她
And left me with just memories all at once
一夜之间 留给我的只剩下回忆
Ever since I met you
自从我遇见你
You're the only love I've known
你是我唯一的爱
And I can't forget you
我无法忘记你
Though I must face it all alone
尽管我必须独自面对
All at once
一夜之间
I'm drifting on a lonely sea
我便在没有你的大海漂泊
Wishing you'd come back to me
期盼你会回到我身边
And that's all that matters now
这才是我在乎的
All at once
一夜之间
I'm drifting on a lonely sea
我便在没有你的大海漂泊
Holding on to memories
坚守着对过去的回忆
And it hurts me more than you know
你不知道伤我有多深
So much more than it shows
深到你无法察觉
All at once
一夜之间
And it hurts me more than you know
你不知道伤我有多深
So much more than it shows
深到你无法察觉
All at once
一夜之间
And that's all that matters now
这才是我在乎的
All at once
一夜之间
I'm drifting on a lonely sea
我便在没有你的大海漂泊
Wishing you'd come back to me
