【一首】Paloma Faith - New York



The days were long and the nights so cold
The pages turn and the tale unfolds          
He left me for another lady
She stood so tall and she never slept
There was not one moment he could regret
He left me for another lady
                  這漫長的一天、寒冷的一夜
                     書頁翻動、故事展開
                  他為了另一個女人要離開我
                    她姿態高昂、夜夜不眠
                     他沒有一刻能夠反悔
                  他為了另一個女人要離開我
He took my hand one day and told me
He was leaving
Me disbelieving
And I I I I I I I I
Had to let him go
                     他牽著我的手對我說
                         他就要走了
                         我不敢置信
                     而我、而我、而我…
                         只能讓他走
Her name was New York, New York
And she took his heart away oh my
Her name was New York, New York
She had poisoned his sweet mind
Mmmm…
                     她名叫紐約!紐約!
                       她偷走了他的心
                     她名叫紐約!紐約!
                     她玷汙了他純真的心
The wolves they howled for my lost soul
I fell down a deep black hole
He left me for another lady
She poured the drinks and she poured the power
Diamond girl who could talk for hours
He left me for another lady
                   我聽見悼念我心碎的狼嚎
                      我跌入無底的深淵
                  他為了另一個女人要離開我
                   她傾注迷湯、讓權勢氾濫
                   她是滔滔不絕的拜金小姐
                  他為了另一個女人要離開我
Now I am on my own
He told me he was leaving
And I was pleading
And I I I I I I I I
Had to let him go
                      現在只剩我一個人
                         他說要走了
                         我苦苦哀求
                     而我、而我、而我…
                         只能讓他走
Her name was New York, New York
And she took his heart away oh my
Her name was New York, New York
She had poisoned his sweet mind
                     她名叫紐約!紐約!
                       她偷走了他的心
                     她名叫紐約!紐約!
                     她玷汙了他純真的心
The greatest times
I don’t want to hear it
Your new laughter lines
I don’t want to hear it
The new found friends she introduced you to
I don’t wanna know them I just want to be with you
Please don’t make me go to
New York
                        那些黃金歲月
                         我不想再聽
                        那些新的笑語
                         我不想再聽
                     她介紹給你的新面孔
               我一點都不關心、我只要和你一起
                     別逼我也去…紐約
New York
And she took your heart away oh my
Her name was New York, New York
She poisoned your sweet mind
                           紐約!
                       她偷走了你的心
                     她名叫紐約!紐約!
                     她玷汙了你純真的心


  男人似乎無法輕易放棄對美好前程的企求,在Paloma Faith這首歌
曲中表面上是描寫一段感情因背叛而告終,事實上卻是對於男人執意
追求成就的控訴。音樂錄影帶中將象徵愛情美好記憶的保齡球館(過
去)與代表美好期待的紐約投影(未來)結合在一起,我實在驚訝導
演能夠將這種運動增添上一份美麗而優雅的氣質,也正與Paloma Faith
的復古風情十分登對,可以說是音樂與影像之間魚幫水、水幫魚的絕
佳範例!
