蓝调诗人：Mclean - My Name

2000万的下载点击量让本名叫作安东尼(Anthony McLean)的这名艺人两年前从自费、并且很寒酸、低调地网络发行自己的首支单曲开始，突然间从去年下半年起引起英国主流的注意。这首单曲My Name也成功打进英国单曲榜前十。

Artist：McLean
Song：My Name

I was in the darkness waiting to be found
my heart was locked away and beaten to the ground
tried to find my way but there was no way out
but when you’re close to me, whenever you’re around
you take the pain away, you make it worth the wait
and I pray that i will have you in my life always
and when my hope is gone you make me keep the faith

I guess what I’m tryna say
baby you got me falling uncontrollably in love, never felt this way
got my heart, my soul but baby that just isn’t enough
hey I wanna give you my name, my name, my name (hey)
I wanna give you my name, my name, my name
I wanna give you my..

my everything and all that I possess¹
cos you deserve² to be offered nothing less
you know I’m there for you like you’ve been there for me
but whenever I’m without you girl I find it hard to breathe
you take the pain away, you make it worth the wait
I was broken but you came along and mended me
now that my hope’s restored³ and I can keep the faith

all I gotta say is
baby you got me falling uncontrollably in love, never felt this way
got my heart, my soul but baby that just isn’t enough
hey I wanna give you my name, my name, my name (hey)
I wanna give you my name, my name, my name
I wanna give you my..

you take the pain away, you make it worth the wait (wait, wait..)
you take the pain away, you make it worth the wait (wait, wait..)

baby you got me falling uncontrollably in love, never felt this way
got my heart, my soul but baby that just isn’t enough
hey I wanna give you my name, my name, my name (hey)
I wanna give you my name, my name, my name
I wanna give you my..
