英格丽·迈克尔森 (Ingrid Michaelson)
今日推荐的英文歌曲为Time Machine(中文译名为:时光机),是美国英格丽·迈克尔森 (Ingrid Michaelson)在2014年发布的专辑《Lights Out》中收录的一首歌曲。英格丽1979年出生在一个艺术家庭,有一半瑞典血统。她的父亲是作曲家,母亲是雕塑家。在这种艺术世家她从4岁就开始学习钢琴。在学生生涯里,她热衷于各种音乐团体,随后在大学获得了戏剧学位。毕业后英格丽成为了一名导演,却一直没放弃自己的音乐梦。
歌词描述了女主的恋情在一开始都是甜蜜与感动,但最终总是以双方不欢而散收场。再经历了无数次这种折磨后,女主希望自己能有一台时光机穿梭到过去告诉自己逃离这无疾而终的爱情结局。个人认为这首歌的MV还是比较有趣的,这个MV英格丽和一群可爱的怪大叔共同完成。在MV中大叔们做出各种奇葩举动不断挑战着英格丽的忍耐极限,最终忍无可忍的英格丽把自己一肚子怨气发泄出来敞开了自我。
歌词:
You lit the fire
你带来光和热
Then drank the water
最后也是你使之熄灭
You slammed that door
你破门而去
And left me standing all alone
剩我形单影只
We wrote the story
我们共同写就了这故事
We turned the pages
我们经历无数沧桑变化
You changed the end
你却改变了结局
Like everybody said you would
这结局,旁人竟料定
I should've seen it coming
我想我早该醒悟
It should've sent me running
我应该潇洒而去
That's what I get for loving you
这或许也是我爱你的一种方式
If I had a time machine
如果我有时光机器
And if life was a movie scene
如果生活只是一出电影幕剧
I'd rewind and I'd tell me
我会穿越时空,回溯时光,告诉自己
Run
逃离这无疾而终的爱情
We were never meant to be
哪怕我从未有过这打算
So if I had a time machine
如果我有时光机器
I'd go back and I'd tell me
我会回到过去,告诉自己
Run
逃吧
Run
逃离这无疾而终的爱情结局
I got your letters
我收到过你的情书
I got your words
听过你对我说的甜言蜜语
I stacked them high
现在,我把他们堆得高高的
And lit them all and let them burn
一把火之后,只余灰烬
Your broken stories
你撕碎这美满故事
Don't mean a thing
但这并不意味着
You made that bed
它会永不见天日
Good luck falling back asleep
只当大梦一场,醒来就雨过天晴
I should've seen it coming
我想我早该醒悟
It should've sent me running
我应该潇洒而去
That's what I get for loving you
这或许也是我爱你的一种方式
If I had a time machine
如果我有时光机器
And if life was a movie scene
如果生活只是一出电影幕剧
I'd rewind and I'd tell me

Run
逃离这无疾而终的爱情结局
Oh, your love, it got me higher
你的爱让我以为自己登上神坛
Then it drove me up the wall
你的爱使我跨越过千山万岭
But the higher up you go
但站得越高
The further you will fall
摔得越狠
Ohhh, ohhh, ohhh, run...
快逃吧
