十多年前,因孩子们的缘故我开始接触并喜欢上女儿们的偶像团体 Westlife。后来最具实力的 Brian McFadden 以要照顾家人为理由在2004年单飞,而这二首歌是收集在他单飞后所出的第一个专辑『爱尔兰之子』里。
Brian原本和英国著名电视节目主持人克里有着一个美满的婚姻,但是在 Brian和一个舞女发生了一夜情后,这椿婚姻触了礁,最后导致离婚。
这二首歌曲是Brian对他那破碎婚姻的追悔和无奈,歌词很感人(建议您一定要看这二首歌的歌词)也很写实。
最近因文学城里的单亲妈妈组和反家暴组的成员常来我们常青人生论坛,让我感触良多。
特贴这两首我自己喜爱的歌,愿还在婚姻中的朋友们能与你们的配偶一起聆听这“过来人”的劝告和无奈。
第一首:『Sorry, Love Daddy』
歌词:
It seems like only yesterday
I held you in my arms and said
You will never need to fear the dark
But unforeseen misery has come
Between your Mummy and me
We can love you more, now we're apart
Daddy, he's got to go away
'Cos there's just no other way
To live this through
Someday you'll learn to understand
This wasn't what I planned
For me and you
Sorry, love Daddy
Everyday is filled with pain
But never feel that you're to blame
Sometimes life breaks
In mysterious ways
I can make it up to you
Believe me, I am trying to
No matter what
You'll always be my babies
Daddy, he's got to go away
'Cos there's just no other way
To live this through
Someday you'll learn to understand
This wasn't what I planned
For me and you
Sorry, love Daddy
Daddy, he's got to go away
'Cos there's just no other way
To live this through
Someday you'll learn to understand
This wasn't what I planned
For me and you
Sorry, love Daddy
第二首『Be True To Your Woman』
歌词:
I was talking last night
To a friend who was thinking he might
Risk it all for a moment of lust
and adventure, so I told him
You can live everyday like your last
Pay the price and the moment will past
It's too late and there's no second chance
If it's over, you got nothing
Well I've been there
The grass was just fine on this side
Because I've been there
There's no getting back on that ride
There's no replacing the love you got
You don't have to lose to see what you've lost
Well just be true to your woman
No good living the lie
When it's over the secret won't die
She'll move on to another guy
She won't love you, like your wife
And I've been there
I don't recommend the pain
Because I've been there
Trust me as your friend
There's nothing to gain
There's no replacing the love you got
You don't have to lose to see what you've lost
Oh, just be true to your woman
Many years, working hard, everyone,
Gets tempted by something
They never knew, never had
The fantasy overtakes, over-rides, everything
And you'll get lost in a hollow world
All those years they are worth the lot
You only realise when they've gone
Then just be true
There's no replacing the love you got
You don't have to lose to see what you've lost
Just be true to your woman
