听歌学英语:桑妮回家Sunny Came Home





Sunny Came Home在1998年以黑马姿态爆冷勇夺格莱美奖年度最佳歌曲奖。这是一首讲述关于仇恨,创伤及毁灭的歌曲。Sunny最后放了一把火烧掉了家园的故事。这是A Few Small Repairs里面几首叙事歌曲的其中一首。歌名也是歌曲开头的歌词。这首歌曲调清新欢快,精彩的吉它伴奏,与隐晦的歌词形成鲜明对比。Sunny Came home是迄今为止Shawn Colvin最成功的单曲,获得包括年度最佳歌曲及年度最佳录音两项格莱美大奖。并登上了Billboard 1单曲榜。





Sunny came home to her favorite room

Sunny sat down in the kitchen

She opened a book and a box of tools

Sunny came home with a mission

She says days go by I'm hypnotized

I'm walking on a wire

I close my eyes and fly out of my mind

Into the fire

Sunny came home with a list of names

She didn't believe in transcendence

It's time for a few small repairs she said

Sunny came home with a vengeance 2

She says days go by I don't know why

I'm walking on a wire

I close my eyes and fly out of my mind

Into the fire

Get the kids and bring a sweater

Dry is good and wind is better

Count the years, you always knew it

Strike a match, go on and do it

Days go by I'm hypnotized

I'm walking on a wire

I close my eyes and fly out of my mind

Into the fire

Light the sky and hold on tight

The world is burning down

She's out there on her own and she's alright

Sunny came home

Sunny came home
