〈你有個好朋友〉,這首歌英文歌曲You've got A Friend,與〈惡水上的大橋〉一樣,歌詞的內容都是說好友義氣相挺的……差別只在於本曲較為平述直接,後者則較為含蓄地,文學修飾……呵呵,不過,重點是這兩首曲子都非常好聽,旋律也極其優美。

 

主唱者詹姆士泰勒(James Vernon Taylor),美國人,是音樂家與吉他演奏家,他的事業生涯起於1960年代中期,但直到70年代才逐漸受到歡迎……一直橫跨到2007年的樂壇,得過五座葛萊美獎與奧斯卡最佳原創歌曲等等,他的演唱感性柔和,曲風合聲簡單而溫暖……與另一個Carole King彈著鋼琴合唱的世界巡迴演唱會版本,都值得聆聽,附帶說明一下,這首You've got A Friend可是Carole King的原創作品喔!呵呵。

 

You've got a friend  James Taylor      

 

 

When you're down and troubled

And you need a helping hand

And nothing, nothing is going right

Close your eyes and think of me

And soon I will be there to brighten up even your darkest night

 

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer, or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah
You've got a friend

If the sky above you should turn dark and full of clouds
And that cold north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together and call my name out loud
And soon I will be knocking upon your door
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you got to do is call
And I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah

Hey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend?
People can be so cold
They'll hurt you and desert you
Well they'll take your soul if you let them
Oh yeah, but don't you let them

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Oh babe, don't you know that
Winter, spring, summer or fall
Hey now, all you've got to do is call
Lord, I'll be there, yes I will
You've got a friend
You've got a friend
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend
You've got a friend

 

 

你有個好朋友  詹姆士泰勒

 

當你失意,碰上麻煩

需要有人伸出援手

什麼事都不對勁

那麼閉上眼睛,想想我

我很快就會出現為你照亮最黑暗的夜晚

 

你只要呼喚我的名字

你知道不論我在何方

我都會趕過來看看你

不論春夏秋冬

你只需要呼喚我

我就會出現

因為你有個好朋友

 

 

如果你的天空變暗而且烏雲密佈

刮起了寒冷的北風

集中精神,大聲呼喚我的名字

我很快就會來敲你的門

你只要呼喚我的名字

你知道的,不論我在何方

我都會趕過來看看你

不論春夏秋冬

你只需要呼喚我

我就會出現

嘿,知道你有個好友不是很好嗎?

 

人們是如此冷漠

傷害你以後,又將你棄之不顧

如果你不抗拒,他們甚至奪走你的靈魂

是啊!但你可別讓他們為所欲為

你只要呼喚我的名字

你知道不論我在何方

我都會趕過來看看你

寶貝,你不知道嗎

不論春夏秋冬

 

現在,你只需要呼喚我

神啊!我一定趕到

因為你有個好朋友

因為你有個好朋友

知道你有個好友不是很好嗎?

知道你有個好友不是很好嗎?

你有個好朋友
