愛你如斯#1
_______________________________________________________

─── And I love you so*… ───                     

夕陽被推到想像的彼岸之外
此刻，陰白的陽光
不慍不火
壟罩著都會的巷弄和天際

夜鷺求偶的低鳴
像沉寂的櫓聲
織補一整個夜晚
今晨，灑了幾滴雨
寧靜異常

塵囂市音如地面列隊的螞蟻
間或一頭獅象欺近
鑽孔機從對岸公寓
掃射田圃噠噠傳來
耳邊揚起一陣風沙
隨即隱沒
在家的屋宇下
抵禦，如此稀薄
令侵襲無力

晨曦久違
我不盼望但相信
日出時
白鷺鷥飛掠徐徐的竹林
逐漸翠綠

And I Love You So - Perry Como

歌詞：

── And I Loveyou so, by Don Mclean

And I love you so.
The people ask me how,
How I’ve lived till now.
I tell them I don’t know.

I guess they understand
How lonely life has been.
But life began again
The day you took my hand.

And, yes, I know how lonely life can be.
The shadows follow me, and the night won’t set me free.
But I don’t let the evening get me down
Now that you’re around me.


And you love me, too.
Your thoughts are just for me;
You set my spirit free.
I’m happy that you do.

The book of life is brief
And once a page is read,
All but love is dead.
That is my belief.

And, yes, I know how loveless life can be.
The shadows follow me, and the night won’t set me free.
But I don’t let the evening bring me down
Now that you’re around me.

And I love you so.
The people ask me how,
How I’ve lived till now.
I tell them, "i don’t know."
