晚上10:13分。窗外已经一片漆黑。
突然很想找到一首老歌的歌词:《where or when》。不记得
什么时候也找过,也许3年前,也许更早些。但感觉这次找时比上
次废了更大的劲儿,也许真的是歌太老了,很多网站的database里
都已经没有了。
Sometimes you think you've lived before
All that you live today
Things you do come back to you
As if they knew the way
Oh the tricks your mind can play
It seems we stood and talked like this before
We looked at each other in the same way then
But i can't remember where or when
The clothes you're wearing are the clothes you wore
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
But i can't remember where or when
Some things that happened for the first time
Seem to be happening again
And so it seems we have met before
And laughed before, and loved before
But who knows where or when
有很多人唱过这首歌,我没一一全听过。很多年前,我并不知道
有这么一首歌。可很多年后也许我还会突然想去找出它的歌词。
我喜欢它永远只有一个原因。
找歌词的同时,无意中在amazon找到一本相同名字的小说:Anita
Shreve写的《where or when》。评语有3颗星,也许是本不错
的小说。Vogue杂志的评论是:"Who hasn't dreamed about
reuniting with one's first love? Where or When indulges
the fantsay, then sets it afire.... This is a seductive read."
