Julie Delpy - A Waltz For A Night



Before sunrise & Before sunset是我非常喜歡的兩部電影,它們既不是美好結局愛情故事,也不是愛的死去活來的濫情史詩劇;它保留了一點幻想,一點甜美,一點綺想,和不少的現實面,給了你一點期待卻也給了不少失落感。最近看到Emilia在MSN暱稱寫道: "...Let me sing you a waltz..." 同時腦海就出現了這首歌的旋律和電影的畫面,在電影裏這是很後面才出現的歌曲,數年後兩人再度面臨分別的時候,女主角唱了這首描述她們之間一天相遇的歌曲,低沉的嗓音,緩緩地旋律,真美! 原聲帶中收錄的也正是女主角Julie Delpy獻聲的版本。Julie甜美的長相,卻有這麼性感的嗓音,帶點法國香頌的味道,結合歌詞與電影劇情,是一個很不錯的小品。

Let me sing you a waltz
Out of nowhere, out of my thoughts
Let me sing you a waltz
About this one night stand

You were for me that night
Everything I always dreamt of in life
But now you're gone
You are far gone
All the way to your island of rain

It was for you just a one night thing
But you were much more to me
Just so you know

I hear rumors about you
About all the bad things you do
But when we were together alone
You didn't seem like a player at all

I don't care what they say
I know what you meant for me that day
I just wanted another try
I just wanted another night
Even if it doesn't seem quite right
You meant for me much more
Than anyone I've met before

One single night with you little Jesse
Is worth a thousand with anybody

I have no bitterness, my sweet
I'll never forget this one night thing
Even tomorrow, another arms
My heart will stay yours until I die

Let me sing you a waltz
Out of nowhere, out of my blues
Let me sing you a waltz
About this lovely one night stand
