音乐咖啡厅:Wait Till You Hear From Me 等我
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,从而断送了大好的性命。我想这首歌不仅仅是表达歌手对Maria的思念,同时也告戒世人:珍惜生命,远离毒品!
2001年春季,Sarah Connor以挑动情欲的处女单曲“Let's Get Back To The Bed Boy”,绽放狂野性格,歌曲强势占领德国排行榜亚军,并挥军直入欧陆各国排行榜TOP 10,抢攻欧洲流行单曲榜TOP 15;第二首单曲“French Kissing”转而释放灵魂乐的性感魅力,同年底改走情歌路线,推出感人恋曲“From Sarah With Love”成绩益发耀眼,光在德国就卖出75万张,歌曲轻易摘下德国榜冠军后座,窜登欧洲Music & Media排行榜TOP 5
英文歌词
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)
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 here from me
Friday use your fantasy
Saturday you got over me
If only you can wait baby
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 1 by taking little pills
So she was trying everything and more
Alcohol and speed, coke and weed and tried to score
Tragedy: 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)
Wait - don't call you've got to
Wait 'til you hear from me
Wait - that's all you've got to
wait...
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 2 her dreams
No one paid attention on her skills
So she found crack 3 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)
(chorus)
Why did she throw her life away?
Why did she say don't call just wait?
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)
中文歌词
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
