音乐咖啡厅:Tamar Braxton - Once Again

相关介绍：看到封面这张轮廓清晰的脸，是否感觉似曾相识？她叫Tamar Braxton，1977年3月17日出生于美国，是黑人天后Toni Braxton最小的妹妹，也曾是美国早期组合"The Braxtons"成员之一（由Braxton家族姐妹组成的R&B团体）。虽然没有大姐那样出名但Tamar也在自己的音乐上取得了不小的突破，她的声音继承了Toni深沉沧桑的质感，是位非常有实力的歌手。Tamar单飞有后两张专辑在手，其中一个“Ridiculous”于1999年录制完毕因为种种原因没有发行，2000年的“Tamar”也是她至今为止唯一一张大家能够听到完整歌曲的作品。

歌词：

Song：Once Again
Artist：Tamar Braxton

Oh, yeah
Oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...

Its two nights, seven days
Seven nights for the very first time we met
I felt scared¹, a first kiss³
And I remember it just like it was⁴ yesterday

And boy, you know that I care² for you
But weve got⁶ to slow it down

Cause⁷ once you fall out of love
You dont wanna rush⁸ back into it
And once you feel pain⁹, darlin
You dont wanna rush back into it once again
Once again, once again

Hoo...ooh...yeah

You whisper¹⁰ things in my ear
You know that every single¹¹ woman in the world likes to
hear
Those three words, how I wish
That you would¹² be the man that I would spend my life¹³
with

And boy, as⁵ much as I care for you
Weve got to slow it down, slow it down

Cause once you fall out of love
You dont wanna rush back into it
And once you feel pain, darlin
You dont wanna rush back into it once again
Once again, once again

Ive been in love a long time ago
And Ive been through pain with this man from my past
And you say that youll never hurt me, so you say
Could¹⁴ this be a night of fear¹⁵
Or could this be a fantasy¹⁶
Please let me know , Lord¹⁷

Oh, just once
You gotta let me know, know
One time, oh, one time
Gotta let me know
I glad you know
Oh...oh...

Once you fall out of love
You dont wanna rush back into it
Once you feel pain
You dont wanna rush back into it

Once you fall out of love
You dont wanna rush back into it
Once you feel pain
You dont wanna rush back into it

Please let me know, Lord

Just once
Ill sit beside you, sit beside you
Once
Cause I dont wanna be hurt once again
