Journey是我高中時代最喜歡的樂團之一。
"Faithfully"這首歌重回到我腦海裡一遍又一遍地響起,是當我來到美國以後。
要從我所居住的沙漠邊境城鎮,去到任何一個最近的景點,都要車行經過漫長而單調的Highway。每一次的公路旅行,尤其是看不見一絲風景的夜晚,我坐在車上,想到這首歌,不知為何總會有一種泫然欲泣的感覺。
只有Steve Perry高亢卻沙啞的聲音可以配得上這首歌吧!在那個沒有手機沒有網路的時代,樂團歌手在大城小鎮間巡迴演唱,在每個陌生的地方享受樂迷的吶喊與掌聲。然而舞台上的絢爛落幕後,安靜地坐在奔馳的巴士上,想念愛人與家人的心情頓時湧上…
Highway run
Into the midnight sun
Wheels go round and round
Youre on my mind
Restless hearts
Sleep alone tonight
Sendin all my love
Along the wire
They say that the road
Aint no place to start a family
Right down the line
Its been you and me
And lovin a music man
Aint always what its supposed to be
Oh girl you stand by me
Im forever yours…faithfully
Circus life
Under the big top world
We all need the clowns
To make us smile
Through space and time
Always another show
Wondering where I am
Lost without you
And being apart aint easy
On this love affair
Two strangers learn to fall in love again
I get the joy
Of rediscovering you
Oh girl, you stand by me
Im forever yours…faithfully
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Faithfully, Im still yours
Im forever yours
Ever yours…faithfully
