音乐咖啡厅:Do What You Gotta Do-Meg Baird

Meg Baird 是Espers乐团的成员之一.07年最新专辑Dear Companion最初是始于Meg Baird为Philadelphia’s Tequila Sunrise厂牌创作一个独立专辑的邀请.整张专辑全是取自Meg自己的原始素材,可以说是一张非常接近Meg内心的歌曲集,整张专辑清新委婉.Meg 这样说到:“这张专辑我将尽我个人所能的投入其中的编写和塑造，并尽可能的来减少分歧.我是真的很爱这些歌，并将它们严肃对待，同时尽我所能的将它完成的更好.我想进行一些新的和有意义的尝试，同时又有一种所有歌曲已经完全写出的感觉.”最后，Meg对Dear Companion这张专辑这样说到：“一直以来，像这样一张来记录我生命中那些我深深关注的人的专辑对我来说，一直是个梦想.最初的构想就是想让它简单，可是越是接近越会发现它不简单，它真的实在是太棒了！”

 

英文歌词：

Do What You Gotta Do-Meg Baird

Man I can understand how it might be kinda hard to love a girl like me
I don’t blame you much for wanting to be free
I just wanted you to know
I love you better than your own kin¹ did from the very start
It’s my own fault for what happens to my heart
You see I’ve always known² you’d go

But you just do what you gotta do
my wild sweet love
Though it may mean I’ll never kiss your sweet lips³ again
Pay that no mind
Just find that dappled dream of yours
Come on back and see me when you can

Well I know they make you sad
They make you feel so bad
They say you don’t treat me like you should
Folks got ways to make you feel no good
I guess they got no way to know
I’ve had my eyes wide open from the start
And boy you never lied to me
And the part of you they’ll never see
Is the part you’ve shown to me

So you just do what you gotta do
my wild sweet love
Though it may mean I’ll never kiss those sweet lips again
Pay that no mind
Just find that dappled dream of yours
Come on back and see me
Come on back and see me
Come on back see me when you caa………….aaaaan oh oh
