Eternal Flame_The Bangles
國中畢業後的升學歷程裡,我曾經唸過金甌女中的夜間部,
在杭州南路上的校本部,小小一點點兒,
但有座超級大的體育場,就是旁邊的中正紀念堂。
15、6歲的我,開始了白天的打工和晚上的求學,當時很不習慣這樣的改變,
而閉俗又壓抑的個性,也讓我在女生們喜歡自組小圈圈的環境裡,時常感到手足無措。
所以選擇社團活動時,依照過往的習慣,我去參加了英文研習社,
這樣就不必跟同學有太多互動,只需要乖乖坐著,像是聽課一樣。
老師在第一次上課時,放了這首歌給大家聽,
其實也沒特別喜歡,我就是聽聽曲調翻翻歌詞而已。
接著沒多久,我因為難以適應而選擇休學,很快就結束了當小金甌的日子。
最近不知道為什麼,這旋律一直從腦海中浮現,
歌詞還能流暢地哼唱著,看來小時候的記憶力真的很好捏 ╮(╯▽╰)╭
隨著年歲漸長和人生經歷的積累,很多的曾經往往已不復記憶,
而偶然的一段文字或一首歌,則不經意地找到了開關,播放出以為遺失了的片段,
對於那時的酸甜苦辣,現在長大了的我們,像是在翻閱老照片那般,
笑看當初的青澀笨拙,同時感恩著從那些種種所積攢出的人生智慧。
有這些美好的能量陪我走過那彎彎曲曲的人生路,我想也算是一種幸福吧。

Close your eyes, give me your hand, darling
Do you feel my heart beating?
Do you understand?
Do you feel the same?
Am I only dreaming?
Is this burning an eternal flame
I believe it's meant to be, darling
I watch you when you are sleeping
You belong with me
Do you feel the same?
Am I only dreaming?
Or is this burning an eternal flame
Say my name, sun shines through the rain
A whole life so lonely
And then you come and ease the pain
I don't want to lose this feeling
Say my name, sun shines through the rain
A whole life so lonely
And then you come and ease the pain
I don't want to lose this feeling
Close your eyes, give me your hand,
Do you feel my heart beating?
Do you understand?
Do you feel the same?
Am I only dreaming?
Is this burning an eternal flame
Close your eyes, give me your hand, darling
Do you feel my heart beating?
Do you understand?
Do you feel the same?
Am I only dreaming?
Is this burning an eternal flame
Close your eyes, give me your hand, darling
Do you feel my heart beating?
Do you understand?
Do you feel the same?
Am I only dreaming?
Is this burning an eternal flame...
