If I Die Young
偶然在iTunes上下了一首歌,If I die young,然后竟然一上午一边循环这首歌一边敲代码,呵呵,这首歌确实很好听。说实话歌词听不懂,但是主唱的嗓音和旋律的感觉我是很喜欢啊,不知道是不是暗合了我现在的心境。呵呵。推荐给几个朋友和同事听了,大家感觉都不错。鉴于是在iTunes上这首单曲是免费的,就不在Blog上提供下载了。晚上搜了一圈歌词,目前我朝大陆境内还搜不到相关的信息,连YouTube上很多留言都是在找歌词,难道老美们也感觉听起来费劲?最终还是让我给找到了,哈哈。
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
oh oh oh oh
Lord make me a rainbow, I’ll shine down on my mother
She’ll know I’m safe with you when she stands under my colors, oh and
Life ain’t always what you think it ought to be, no
Ain’t even great, but she buries her baby
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time
And I’ll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I’m as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I’ve never known the lovin’ of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding me hand
There’s a boy here in town says he’ll love my forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time
So put on your best boys and I’ll wear my pearls
What I never did is done
A penny for my thoughts, oh no I’ll sell them for a dollar
There worth so much more after I’m a goner
And maybe then you’ll here the words I been singin’
Funny when your dead how people start listenin’
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
oh oh
The ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep `em in your pocket
Save them for a time when your really gonna need them oh
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time
So put on your best boys and I’ll wear my pearls
看来歌词的无厘头是由老外那边来的
