聽著Joni Mitchell 唱的 ‘A Case of You’
我低聲地跟著音樂哼唱起來
然後
一面哼著歌曲
一面在雅虎聊天室裡的笑臉旁寫上這首歌裡的其中一句歌詞
「Love is touching soul, sure you touch mine」

這句「Never touching the soul if you never mean it」悄悄地掛在妳的笑臉旁
我對於妳剎那而來又發人深省的字句始終招架不來

“喜歡我這樣回應你嗎?”
“喜歡, 同時我正在搔頭, 想著要如何的回應妳呢!”

我想了很久

第二天
我寫上「Dare to Dream for Your Touch」

一會兒
妳就寫上「A Gracious Touch May Warm The Soul of A Person Heart」

為何妳可以那麼的輕易就寫上這些令人深思文字呢?




A Case of You lyrics

Just before our love got lost you said
”I am as constant as a northern star”
And I said, ”Constant in the darkness
Where’s that at?
If you want me I’ll be in the bar”

On the back of a cartoon coaster
In the blue TV screen light
I drew a map of Canada
Oh Canada
And I sketched your face on it twice

Oh you are in my blood like holy wine
Oh and you taste so bitter but you taste so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you
I could drink a case of you darling
Still I’d be on my feet
I’d still be on my feet
Oh I am a lonely painter
I live in a box of paints
I’m frightened by the devil
And I’m drawn to those ones that ain’t afraid
I remember that time that you told me, you said
”Love is touching souls”
Surely you touched mine
”Cause part of you pours out of me
In these lines from time to time

Oh you are in my blood like holy wine
And you taste so bitter but you taste so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you
I could drink a case of you darling
Still I’d be on my feet
I’d still be on my feet

I met a woman
She had a mouth like yours
She knew your life
She knew your devils and your deeds
And she said
”Go to him, stay with him if you can
Oh but be prepared to bleed”
Oh but you are in my blood you’re my holy wine
Oh and you taste so bitter but you taste so sweet
I could drink a case of you darling
Still I’d be on my feet
Still I’d be on my feet
I’d still be on my feet
