亲爱的

a song for you---by Danny Hathaway

 

I've been so many places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs I've made some bad rhyme
I've acted out my love in stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you

I know your image of me is what I hope to be
I've treated you unkindly but darlin' can't you see
There's no one more important to me
Darlin' can't you please see through me
Cause we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you

You taught me precious secrets of the truth witholding nothing
You came out in front and I was hiding
But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding

I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you for in my life you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song for you

You taught me precious secrets of the truth witholding nothing
You came out in front and I was hiding
But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding

I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you for in my life you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
We were alone and I was singing this song for you

 

这是我在看FOX的真人秀“So You Think You Can Dance”当中，有一集，其中一个非常傲慢的参赛选手Blake被抽中要跳Lyrical Jazz,编舞的老师给选的一首歌。

这段舞蹈跳得极为美丽，所以我想为什么会一听这首歌这么喜欢，还是因为有具体的图景在我面前吧，呵呵。

最早唱这首歌的人(应该是最早吧)，名叫Donny Hathaway,在上世纪七十年代就挂了，死的时候好像还蛮年轻，自杀。
