Kenny Rogers(肯尼·羅杰斯)是美國(guó)鄉(xiāng)村音樂的頂級(jí)大腕。他銀須銀發(fā),風(fēng)度翩翩;他嗓音略為沙啞,高音游刃有余,低音豐富回轉(zhuǎn);他的歌有著鄉(xiāng)村音樂的節(jié)奏,歌詞相當(dāng)壓韻,英語(yǔ)吐字富有彈性,極為勾動(dòng)人心。聽他的歌,就像是在聽一個(gè)經(jīng)歷滄桑、情感豐富的人說(shuō)感人的故事。
就象歌里所唱:“我發(fā)誓,當(dāng)著天空的星星月亮,我會(huì)永遠(yuǎn)伴隨在你身邊!我發(fā)誓,如同守候你的身影,我會(huì)永遠(yuǎn)在那里!無(wú)論豐腴困厄至死不渝,心跳不息,愛無(wú)止盡,我發(fā)誓……”美妙的合聲像云朵聚散,其實(shí)那不僅僅只是聲音與聲音的掩映,而是呼吸與心跳的契合,是不經(jīng)意的、無(wú)限的享受。
中英歌詞:
I swear
by the moon and the stars in the sky
and i swear
like the shadow that's by your side
i see the questions in your eyes
i know what's weighing on your mind
you can be sure i know my part
'cause i'll stand beside you through the years
you'll only cry those happy tears
and though i make mistakes
i'll never break your heart
and i swear
by the moon and the stars in the sky
i'll be there
i swear
like a shadow that's by your side
i'll be there
for better or worse
till death do us part
i'll love you with every beat of my heart
and i swear, wo..o...o
i'll give you every thing i can
i'll build your dreams with these two hands
we'll hang some memories on the walls
and when ( and when ) just the two of us are there
you won't have to ask if i still care
'cause as the time turns the page
my love won't age at all
and i swear
by the moon and the stars in the sky
i'll be there, i'll be there
i swear
like the shadow that's by your side
i'll be there, i'll be there
for better or worse, till death do us part
i'll love you with every beat of my heart
and i swear
( music )
i swear
by the moon and stars in the sky
i'll be there, i'll be there
i swear
like the shadow that's by your side
i'll be there, i'll be there
for better or worse
till death do us part
i'll love you with every beat of my heart
and i swear, i swear, oh i swear
我發(fā)誓,當(dāng)著夜空中的明月和繁星
我發(fā)誓,會(huì)像影子一般永遠(yuǎn)伴隨你
我看到你眼中的疑惑
我知道你在多想什么
你可以確信我知道自己的角色
因?yàn)檫@些年華我會(huì)在你身邊
你只會(huì)流下幸福的淚水
盡管我可能會(huì)犯一些錯(cuò)
但我永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)傷你的心
不管怎樣
直到面臨死亡
我對(duì)你的愛 伴隨著每一次的心跳
我發(fā)誓…
我會(huì)給你所有我能給的
我會(huì)用這雙手搭建你的夢(mèng)想
我們會(huì)把一些回憶掛在墻上
當(dāng)我們?cè)谝黄鸬臅r(shí)候
你不需問我是否還在意
因?yàn)楸M管時(shí)間一頁(yè)頁(yè)的翻去
我的愛卻一點(diǎn)都不會(huì)老去
我發(fā)誓…
