音乐咖啡厅:Wait till you hear from me
Lyrics
Wait till you hear from me by Sarah Connor
Intro
This song is about Maria
A close friend of mine
Who lost herself in drugs
She told me to wait for her
But guess what...
She never came back
And I'm still waiting
She told me
Chorus 1
Wait 'til you hear from me
Monday, Tuesday it won't be
Wednesday, Thursday we will see
If only you can wait baby
Wait 'til you hear from me
Friday use your fantasy
Saturday you got over me
If only you can wait baby
Verse 2 1
She was called Maria and she really was a friend
I remember when we were walking hand in hand
She was telling me that she understands
All the world and every thrill 3 by taking little pills
So she was trying everything and more
Alcohol and speed, coke and weed and tried to score
Tragedy 4: she didn't feel much better than before
So she got away here quick to find a better kick
Bridge
Never let it, wanna find her
Can't forget it to remind her
She's my sister, wanna tell her
How I miss her, she told me
Chorus
B-chorus
Wait, don't call you've got to
Wait 'til you hear from me
Wait, that's all you've got to
Wait...
Verse 2
When she arrived in the city of the stars
Blinded by the lights, a burning in the heart
She believed to play what she called her part
A member of society to satisfy 5 her dreams
No one paid attention on her skills
So she found crack 6 is another way to fill
The emptiness inside right now she got her thrill
Guess, who gave his life away? She did it every day
Bridge
Never let it, wanna find her
Can't forget it to remind her
She's my sister, wanna tell her
How I miss her, she told me
Chorus
Narration 7 part:
Why did she throw her life away?
Why did she say don't call just wait?
C-part:
If you wanna go to the city of stars
Can you help me to find my girl Maria
She once was an actress and a beauty queen
Then the drugs took over and made her mean
I tried to stand by her side make her feel alright
But she wished to get over to the other side
And since I can't really get her out of my mind
I'm asking you, won't you help me to find
She told me
Chorus
B-chorus
Words and phrases
1. 有关毒品的俚语
既然这是一首反毒歌曲，歌词里少不了大量的“毒品”词汇，现做如下总结，愿对大家有所帮助
pills: 药丸，但在俚语中指的是“安非他明”，一种强力兴奋剂
crack: 快克（一种经过高度化学提纯的可卡因药丸，通过玻璃烟管吸取，很容易使人上瘾）
coke: 可卡因（呈白色晶体状，兴奋作用强）
speed: 俚语里指“安非他明”
weed: 大麻
另外，再顺便介绍一个“戒毒”短语：Cold turkey，具体请参考词海拾贝： Cold turkey（突然完全戒毒）
2. score: 在俚语中，score指“走私禁药、购买非法毒品”
3. the city of the stars: “洛杉矶”的别名，当然，能获得此名得归功于众星云集的“好莱坞”
中文歌词
等我 by Sarah Connor
这首歌是关于玛利亚的
我很亲密的朋友
她死于毒品
她让我等她
但你猜发生了什么...
她一去不回了
我却一直在等
她告诉我
一直等到我给你消息
星期一星期二我们不可能见面
星期三星期四？看情况吧
如果你愿意，等我宝贝
一直等到我给你消息
星期五自己去想吧
星期六你可能会忘了我
如果你愿意，等我宝贝
她叫玛利亚是我真正的好朋友
还记得一起手牵手的日子
她过去一直告诉我
毒品让她无所不知，兴奋异常
所以她一直在尝试各种毒品
酒精，安非他命（兴奋剂），可卡因，大麻，也走私
悲剧发生了：她没有以前开心
因此她离开这里去寻找新的转折点
从来没有放弃寻找她的念头
并要时时提醒她
她是我的好姐妹
想告诉她 真的很想她
她告诉我
等我，别给我打电话
等我，一直等到我给你消息
等我，你要做的就是等
等我
她来到众星云集的好莱坞
被五彩的世界打动，心中燃烧着欲望和激情
她以为自己会是个好演员
作为社会的成员来实现她的梦想
可是没人注意她的技能
她发现毒品可以填补内心的空虚
立即又开始吸毒
猜，是谁夺走了她的生命？是她自己
为什么她要放弃生存的机会？
为什么她不让打电话只是让我等?
如果你要去好莱坞
你能帮我找到我的玛利亚吗
她曾经是演员拥有皇后般的美貌
毒品侵蚀了她，让她变得卑微
我试图支持她让她觉得好过些
但她要追逐另一端的生活
我真的忘不了她
我问你，你会帮我找到她么
她告诉我
歌手简介
1980年，Sarah Connor出生在德国的一个小镇上，祖父的新奥尔良血统（新奥尔良被认为是美国爵士乐和蓝调音乐的摇篮）让她在幼年时就受到蓝调灵魂乐的熏陶。
14岁时，Sarah开始在教堂唱诗班担任演唱，并在学校演唱音乐剧； 15、16岁，她便以试唱带向各大音乐厂牌投石问路；23岁，Sarah凭借处女单曲，开始以婉转唯美的唱腔征服欧洲乐坛。
Sarah Connor的音乐融合了新灵魂、节奏蓝调与嘻哈等音乐元素，专辑虽然是以蓝调音乐为主线，但表现形式却丰富多样化，同时使用了大量的音效，风格带着浓厚的黑人味道。
Sarah是一个生性直爽，毫不矫揉造作的现代女性，几乎所有的歌曲都围绕着性的话题打转，但并不会让人感觉不堪入耳，反而相当迷人。她的唱功可以和Mariah Carey相媲美，嗓音甜美却甜而不腻。

我听之我见
这是一首反毒品歌曲，歌曲从一开始就表明这是为情同姐妹的好友而唱，那个女孩因为染上了毒瘾无法自拔，从而断送了大好的生命。当那个女孩打电话给她说，星期一和星期二，我们不可能见面，星期三和星期四?看情况吧，如果你愿意等，我也许会给你电话，星期五就要靠想象力了，说不定星朗六你就把我忘记了，但到了Sarah Connor得到消息的时候，那个女孩已经因为毒品而死去了。
这首歌曲作完之后给人的触动，给Sarah Connor的感动都非常之大，回想起两人过去深厚的感情，她无比的感激。虽然歌曲的节奏比较快，但还是掩饰不住悲伤与遗憾，尤其是开始的独白部分，表达了Sarah对好朋友Maria的思念。我想这首歌不仅仅是表达对Maria的思念，同时也告戒世人：生命是脆弱的，当灾难来临，不得不告别亲人朋友的时候，再多的后悔和留恋都是于事无补的!
请珍惜生命，远离毒品
