浪子_剑心 创作于2008年5月。
是在周日的黑暗之中
抽着烟
听这首空灵的乐音
心灵时时被震颤
我决定在空间里记录下来
就像记录一段刻骨铭心的爱情
其实
爱上一首歌
就像爱上一个充满离奇身世的女子
仿佛前世便已熟识
却一再错过
从未热衷于乐评 因为更多时候
自己只单纯的做一个倾听和欣赏者
那首叫做《Moonlight shadow》的歌
如一美妙而绝色的奇女子
每次聆听
都能掀起内心的波澜
当我追逐着她的芳踪
迷恋着她的气息
殊不知
她早已香消玉殒
不知所踪
在空间里分享这首感动了无数人天籁之音
只为铭记——
《Moonlight shadow》
The last that ever she saw him,
carried away by a moonlight shadow,
He passed on worried and warning,
carried away by a moonlight shadow,
Lost in a riddle that Saturday night,
far away on the other side,
he was caught in the middle of a desperate fight,
and she couldn't find how to push through.
The trees that whisper in the evening,
carried away by a moonlight shadow,
Sing the song of sorrow and grieving,
carried away by a moonlight shadow,
All she saw was a silhouette of a gun,
far away on the other side,
He was shot six times by a man on the run,
and she couldn't find how to push through.
I stay, I pray, I see you in heaven far away,
I stay, I pray, I see you in heaven one day.
Four a.m. in the morning,
carried away by a moonlight shadow,
I watched your vision forming,
carried away by a moonlight shadow,
Star was glowin' in a silvery night,
far away on the other side,
Will you come to talk to me this night,
but she couldn't find how to push through.
I stay, I pray, I see you in heaven far away,
I stay, I pray, I see you in heaven one day.
but she couldn't find how to push through.
far away on the other side,
far away on the other side,
and she couldn't find how to push through.
and she couldn't find how to push through.
那是她最后一次见他
披着月光之影而悄然离去
他消逝于忧虑和警示中
因月光之影而悄然离去
他沉溺于上周末河的记忆
在遥远的那边消逝
他就这样死于这场决斗中
而她不知道以后该如何度过
黄昏时分树林的低语
因月光之影而悄然远去
唱一首悲伤的挽歌吧
因月光之影而悄然远去
她看到的是一只枪的侧影
在遥远的那边慢慢举起
一个逃跑的男人向他开了六枪
而她不知道之后该如何度过
我止步
我祈祷
我看到你在天堂渐渐远去
凌晨四点钟间
因月光之影而悄然逝去
我仿佛看见你的幻像
因月光之影而悄然逝去
银色的夜里星光熠熠
在遥远的那边静静闪烁
今天晚上你还会来找我吗?
而她不知道之后该如何度过
我止步
我祈祷
我看到你在天堂渐渐远去
一直到遥远的那边
悲伤的人群伴随着他
夜色凝重而空气仍在流动
而她不知道之后该如何度过
因月之阴影而远去
因月之阴影而远去
一直到遥远的那边
这首歌最初是英国的Mike Oldfield创作的,很多网上的资料都说这首歌是纪念被枪杀的John Lennon ..
On December 8th 1980, in front of the Dakota, a supposed fan, Mark David Chapman, fired five shots, hitting John in the chest. By the time he arrived at the hospital, John Lennon was dead.
1980年12月8日,马克·查普曼伪装成一个歌迷,在列侬的公寓旁边徘徊了很久。那天晚上,当列侬从录音棚返回家中的时候,查普曼请列侬在他的签字本上签名。当时他内心曾进行过激烈的斗争,但最后仍然举起手枪朝着列侬的后背连开了5枪。
和Moonlight Shadow中所写的He was shot six times by a man on the run倒是有点类似
也有人说这首歌应该和John Lennon的被刺并没有直接联系
似乎男主角死于一场决斗中,这倒象是普希金,但不知道普希金的妻子娜达丽亚会不会这样来怀念他。
曾经有国外的歌迷透露,Oldfield说起这首歌的灵感来源于Tony Curtis主演的电影Houdini。
霍迪尼传(Houdini)是美国派拉蒙公司于1953年7月2日上映的电影,故事梗概如下:在举世闻名的幻觉大师哈利胡迪尼逝世十年后,他的遗孀贝丝找上一位灵媒,来为她召唤亡夫的鬼魂,之后便以倒叙手法回顾胡迪尼传奇的一生。
也有人说创作这首歌的、才华出众但却忧郁无比的Mike Oldfield未必有所特指。
或许没必要多去考证了,只需要静静溶入歌中空灵纯净的月光中即可。
