蒼穹未央

Arthur's Theme 這首歌是二八佳人花公子的電影主題曲，由ChristopherCross 主唱，得過很多獎項，也在排行榜上連續三週名列前矛，當然也是我喜愛的曲子之一，記得曾在本部落格〈蒼穹未央〉的「西河雜文」裡曾經以它為楔子，寫了一篇散文：「…有一首西洋歌曲亞瑟之歌(Arthur's theme)，是我學生時代相當喜愛的一首歌，應該是電影主題曲或插曲，歌詞內容提到主角迷惘在紐約與月亮之間 (Between the Moon and New York city)，也就是夢想與現實之間，這與愛情和麵包好像有異曲同工之妙，不過層次似乎提升了不少，我無意貶低愛情的可貴，也不忘麵包的真實，但今天要表達的是……」

 

 

Arthur's Theme by Christopher Cross

 

Once in your life you find her

在你一生中，你會找到一個她

Someone who turns your heart around

有一個人能讓你的心千迴百轉

And next thing you know

You're closing down the town

接著你快要進城

Wake up and it's still with you

一覺醒來羈絆仍在

Even though you left(her) way across town

縱然你離開她

Wondering to yourself

捫心自問

Hey, what hav I found

究竟尋得什麼

When you get caught between

當你迷惘

Then moon and New Your City

月亮與紐約之間

I know it's crazy but it's ture

我明白這很瘋狂卻是千真萬確

If you get caught between the moon and New York City

如果你糾結於月亮與紐約之間

The best you can do

你所能的最佳選擇

The best
That you can do

你所能的最佳選擇

Is fall in love

就是墜入情網

Arthur he does as he pleases

亞瑟喜歡為所欲為

All of his life his master's toy

他的生活是一團糟

And deep in his heart he's just

在他內心深處

He's just a boy

他不過是個小孩

Living his life on day at a time

浮生偷得半日閒
Showing himeself a pretty good time

他過得快樂無比

Laughing about the way they want him to be
他不禁嘲笑，他們對他的擺佈
