一個人聽歌的夜晚...

在 YouTube 聽到了陳昇的二十年以前...
搜尋了一下這首西洋老歌.....
意外的好聽..
意外的有感觸....
在颱風夜的今天.....
意外的...
想起了很多年前.....



Twenty Years Ago by Kenny Rogers

It`s been a long time since I walked
Through this old town
But oh how the memories start to flow
And there`s the old movie house
They finally closed it down
You could find me there every Friday night
Twenty years ago.

I worked the counter at the drugstore down the street
But nobody`s left there I would know
On Saturday mornings that`s where
All my friends would meet
You`d be surprised what a dime would buy
Twenty years ago.

All my memories from those days come gather round me
What I`d give if they could take me back in time
It almost seems like yesterday
Where do the good times go?
Life was so much easier twenty years ago.

I guess I should stop by Mr. Johnson`s hardware store
His only son was my friend Joe
But he joined the army back in 1964
How could we know he would never come back
Twenty years ago.


二十年前

上一次我走過這個古老的小鎮已經是很久以前的事了
然而，喔～心中又開始湧現那些回憶....
他們終究還是把那家老電影院結束了
二十年前，我總是在那度過每個週末的夜晚

我曾經在街角的那間雜貨店的櫃檯工作過
但是我曾認識的人現在都看不到了
我和朋友們總會在星期六的早上在那相聚
你會很驚訝在二十年前一角錢能買到什麼東西

那些日子的回憶紛紛圍繞著我
我要付出什麼代價才能讓我再回到那段時光
這一切就像是昨天一般如此鮮明
那些美好的時光如今已不可尋
生活是如此的輕鬆美好
在那二十年前

我想我該去強生先生的五金行走走
他的獨生子喬曾經是我的朋友
他在1964年加入了軍隊
但誰也想不到他從此就再也沒回來過
在那二十年前....
