《0816》四號日記─1000 Oceans


 
1000 Oceans
Tori Amos
To Venus and Back
1999


These tears I’ve cried
I’ve cried a thousand oceans
And if it seems
I’m floating in the darkness

Well, I can’t believe that I would keep
Keep you from flying
And I would cry a thousand more
If that's what it takes
To sail you home
Sail you home
Sail you home
Sail you home

I’m aware what the rules are
But you know that I will run
You know that I will follow you
Over Silbury Hill
Through the solar field
You know that I will follow you

And if I find you
Will you still remember?
Playing at trains
Or does this little blue ball just fade away

Over Silbury Hill
Through the solar field
You know that I will follow you
I’m aware what the rules are
But you know that I will run
You know that I will follow you

These tears I’ve cried
I’ve cried a thousand oceans
And if it seems
I’m floating in the darkness

Well, I can’t believe that I would keep
Keep you from flying
So I will cry a thousand more
If that’s what it takes
To sail you home
Sail you home
Sail you home
Sail……
Sail you home


快15年前的歌
是至今Tori Amos最令我共鳴的旋律
這句“I will cry a thousand more if that’s what it takes to sail you home.”
可能已陪我哭了1000次

每天陪好多人回家
在後跟著
踏著他們跟自己的眼淚躡腳前進
隨時看著腳步
好一起走得平穩
失衡時轉身替他們墊著路面尖石

當他們得到歸屬的救贖
回頭望去的路還是滿地眼淚啊
那地上的液態悲傷
攪和著我與他們落下的淚水
回程路沒有誰在身後跟著
小心翼翼向前
卻抵不過一次失足挫傷的受苦

其實不用後頭的護衛
只需要有個人對我指著歸屬的方向
