天籁音乐:John Lennon-Woman
这首Woman是John Lennon献给妻子的歌,出自他1980年的专辑DOUBLE FANTASY,这张专辑发行三周后,列侬就遇刺身亡,这张原本反响平平的专辑也因此备受关注,赢得1981年格莱美最佳专辑奖。这也是列侬在孩子出生五年后回归乐坛的作品,其中除了有这首献给妻子的歌,还有他写给自己儿子的那首Beautiful Boy。
Woman
John Lennon
Woman I can hardly express,
My mixed emotion at my thoughtlessness 1,
After all I'm forever in your debt,
And woman I will try express,
My inner 2 feelings and thankfullness,
For showing me the meaning of succsess,
oooh well, well,
oooh well, well,
Woman I know you understand
The little child inside the man,
Please remember my life is in your hands,
And woman hold me close to your heart,
However, distant don't keep us apart,
After all it is written in the stars,
oooh well, well,
oooh well, well,
Woman please let me explain,
I never mean(t) to cause you sorrow or pain,
So let me tell you again and again and again,
I love you (yeah, yeah) now and forever,
I love you (yeah, yeah) now and forever,
I love you (yeah, yeah) now and forever,
I love you (yeah, yeah)...
