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
