清澈的圣诞圣歌， 无可言传的感动方式 Soon After Christmas - Stina Nordenstam

Soon After Christmas - Stina Nordenstam

不用管有多少人说她只是Rickee Lee Jones的又一翻版，不用管她到底是民谣是爵士是“另类”还是别的什么；在摁下play键之前你无法预知她声音的形态--无论是乐器的声音还是她的嗓音。也许她的嗓音和唱腔是最值得人云亦云之处。

I’ve called you now a thousand times
I think I know now
You’re not home
I’ve said your name a thousand times
To be prepared if you’d be there
I wanted so to have youAnd I wanted you to know
I wanted to write songs
About how we’re walking in the snow
You’ve got me slightly disappointed¹
Just a bit and just enough
To keep me up another night
Waiting for another day
The city’s taking a day off
The streets are empty
No one’s out tonight
My life is in another’s hands
I wanted so to have you
And I wanted you to know
I wanted to write songs
About how we’re walking in the snow
But there’s no snow this winter
There’s no words for what I feel for you
It’s not enough
Though it’s too much
Why must it always be like that?
The tv screen is lighting² up my room
The film has ended
Every inch³ of my skin is crying for your hands
And I wanted so...
You’ve got me slightly disappointed
Just a bit and just enough
To keep me up another night
Waiting for another day
Another Story Girl
