这首歌曲所讲述的背景故事是一个美丽的悲剧。

She put him out like the burnin’ end of a midnight cigarette
她离开了他,如同一支在午夜燃尽的香烟
She broke his heart he spent his whole life tryin’ to forget
她伤透了他的心,他将要用他的余生去忘记
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
在很短的时间里我们望见他喝完了他心中的痛
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
可他却从未喝到足以让她从他的心中离去
Until the night
直到那晚
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
他喝光了酒并扣动了手枪的扳机
And finally drank away her memory
他终于喝完了所有关于她的记忆
Life is short but this time it was bigger
生命如此短暂,但这一刻它却如此强大
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
甚至大过了他再次站起来回到生活中的力量
We found him with his face down in the pillow
我们发现他倒在枕头上
With a note that said I’ll love her till I die
而在枕边的一个便笺上写着:”我爱她直至我生命终结的那一刻。”
And when we buried him beneath the willow
当我们把他安葬在低垂的柳树下时
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby
天使们唱起了威士忌安魂曲 ~~
The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
谣言四起,可却无人知晓她是多么的责怪着自己
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
年复一年她试着把威士忌藏匿在她的呼吸中
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
最终在很短的时间里她喝完了她心中的苦
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind
可她却从未喝到足以让他从她的心中离去
Until the night
直到那晚
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
她喝光了酒并扣动了手枪的扳机
And finally drank away his memory
她最终喝完了所有关于他的记忆
Life is short but this time it was bigger
生命如此短暂,但这一刻它却如此强大
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
甚至大过了她重新站起来回到生活中的力量
We found her with her face down in the pillow
我们发现她倒在枕头上
Clinging to his picture for dear life
紧紧握着亲爱的他的相片
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
我们把她安葬在低垂的柳树下紧靠在他的身旁
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby
那会儿天使们又唱起了威士忌安魂曲
某些国外的音乐听起来还是很不错的。
国产货也一样很不错哦、还有闽南语的、纯野在厦门应该多少有学点闽南语吧、哈哈。最近忙、少走访、见谅!
故事貌似不错,这首歌听起来一般,哈哈哈。。。
我个人是觉得挺不错的、所以收录了、哈哈。当然、总味难调!
