听歌学英语:The Closest Thing To Crazy(Katie Melua)




Katie Melua 拥有一种独特的嗓音,首支单曲〈The Closest Thing To Crazy〉浪漫至性,以少女的口吻娓娓道来,加上弦乐的编曲,那种举棋不定的不安自然征服人心。


  歌词:


  How can I think I'm standing 1 strong,

Yet feel the air beneath my feet?

How can happiness feel so wrong?

How can misery 2 feel so sweet?

How can you let me watch you sleep,

Then break my dreams the way you do?

How can I have got in so deep?

Why did I fall in love with you?


  This is the closest thing to crazy I have ever been

Feeling twenty-two, acting 3 seventeen,

This is the nearest thing to crazy I have ever known,

I was never crazy on my own,

And now I know that there's a link between the two,

Being close to craziness and being close to you.


  How can you make me fall apart

Then break my fall with loving lies?

It's so easy to break a heart;

It's so easy to close your eyes.

How can you treat me like a child

Yet like a child I yearn 4 from you?

How can anyone feel so wild?

How can anyone feel so blue?


  This is the closest thing to crazy I have ever been

Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen,

This is the nearest thing to crazy I have ever known,

I was never crazy on my own,

And now I know that there's a link between the two,

Being close to craziness and being close to you.
