【注释与赏析】
这首歌像一首回文诗,反复吟唱的几段歌唱出了人们对生活真谛的探索,同时也表达了对逝世的感慨和无可奈何的态度。一面是对已逝去的美好事物的怀念和惋惜,一面是对我们本来可知却佯装不知的未来的发展的悲伤和哀叹。简单反复的曲调使主题更为深化,反复吟唱、欣赏,会令人无限感伤。
And I Love You So
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,
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 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.
