These Days 这些岁月

by Rudimental (feat. Jess Glynne, Macklemore & Dan Caplen)


I know you moved onto someone new

Hope life is beautiful

You were the light for me to find my truth

I just wanna say, thank you


Leaving to find my soul

Told her I had to go

And I know it ain't pretty

When our hearts get broke

Too young to feel this old

Watching us both turn cold

Oh, I know it ain't pretty

When two hearts get broke

Yeah, I know it ain't pretty

When two hearts get broke


I hope someday

We'll sit down together

And laugh with each other

About these days, these days

All our troubles

We'll lay to rest

And we'll wish we could come back to these days, these days


These days, these days


These days, these days


Three years of ups and downs

Nothing to show for it now

And I know it ain't pretty when the fire burns out

Calling me when I'm drunk, remind me of what I've done

And I know it ain't pretty when you're trying to move on, yeah


I hope someday

We'll sit down together

And laugh with each other

About these days, these days

All our troubles

We'll lay to rest

And we'll wish we could come back to these days, these days


Oh I know, I know

Oh I know, I know

Oh I know, I know

These days, these days

Oh I know, I know

Oh I know, I know

Oh I know, I know

To these days, these days


Cigarettes in the ash tray

Reminiscing on those past days

I thought you'd end up with my last name

But that changed

And I travelled around the world

Think where you living at now?

I heard you moved to Oxford

Got an apartment and settled down

And every once in a while

I start texting

Write a paragraph

But then I delete the message

Think 'bout you like a past time

I could cry you a river

Get you baptised or

I wasn't ready to act right

Used to always think I'd get you back, right

They say that things fall apart (yeah)

We were gonna move to Brooklyn

You were gonna study Art (oh no, oh)

Love is just a tool

To remind us who we are

And that we are not alone

When we're walking in the dark


I hope someday

We'll sit down together

And laugh with each other

About these days, these days

All our troubles

We'll lay to rest

And we'll wish we could come back to these days, these days

We'll wish we could come back to these days, these days (these days, these days, these days)


我知你已有新欢

我愿你生活幸福

你曾是我引路明灯

所以我想说声 谢谢


告诉她我得离去

去寻找心的归宿

我当然清楚

破碎的心灵不再美丽

未曾老去 却已沧桑

相对无言 渐渐冷场

我当然清楚

破碎的心灵不再美丽


也许未来某日我们相聚

如今这些岁月 到时都成为笑谈

一地鸡毛已烟消云散

我们都企望 昨日重演


三年里 多少起起落落

现在也无需再提

我当然清楚

薪火燃尽 不可能美丽

等我喝高了再打给我吧

提醒我曾如何荒唐

我当然清楚

曲终人散 不可能美丽


也许未来某日我们相聚

如今这些岁月 到时都成为笑谈

一地鸡毛已烟消云散

我们都企望 昨日重演


香烟已成灰烬

过去已成追忆

曾以为我们会天长地久

现在只留下一声叹息


每当我四处旅行 都会想如今你居住何处

听说你搬去了奥斯丁 安身在一个新公寓

每回想给你发个短信

总是开了一个头就写不下去


像以前一样那么思念你

我泪流成河 甚至可以给你做洗礼

我还没准备好一个人前行

总在想如何让你回心转意


人们总说 有相聚就有分离

原本我们打算搬去布鲁克林 你会去读艺术系

爱情就是在告诉你一个真实的自己

即便在暗夜里行走也不会感到孤寂


也许未来某日我们相聚

如今这些岁月 到时都成为笑谈

一地鸡毛已烟消云散

我们都企望 昨日重演

辣么普通 却辣么自信

近日看了一部豆瓣高分电视剧《天道》,这部2008年的剧,正好拿来注解当下,真应景了。

先说剧里男主和女主的爱情故事吧,这是主线之一。男主是德国留学生,海归兼带路党。拿着德国私募的资金,割着中国股民的韭菜,顺带自己也捞了第一桶金。捞完后,良心发现,金盆洗手,在古城隐居。女主是同样德国海归的当地女警察,一个人住着独栋别墅,还有发小饭店的股份分红。父亲是大导演,母亲是定居德国的饭店老板娘,妥妥的富二代。她不但貌美如花,身材还是舞蹈训练过的珠圆玉润。她不仅聪明过人,枪法好,业务强,人缘好,还讲义气情商高,在当地有好姐妹,在北京有好闺蜜。以剧情的定义,就是天国的女儿--完美无缺。

问题来了,这么高大上的女主,对比她大十几岁,又有过婚史的男主,是怎么来电的?剧中两人认识后,几乎一年时间并无来往,直到女主听了男主发烧音响的一张唱片,就忽然坠入了情网,没几天就主动素手羹汤,投怀送抱。对于这个离奇的剧情,网上众多评论都认定是女主被男主的才华吸引。因为剧中男主被塑造成博通古今中外,俯视众生,点评佛教、道教、基督教的哲学家,还是在股市一年赚好几个亿,还能杀富济贫扭转乾坤的实干家。

不禁让我想起了杨笠的名言:“男生为什么看起来那么普通,但是他却可以那么自信?”这编剧、演员、观众都一致认同的离奇爱情,正诠释了杨笠吐槽的男权社会。一个穷书生,只要能认字,再拽几句文,就会有狐狸精深夜来勾引,这是蒲松龄的春梦。五百年过去了,光是书生不行了,还得有点钱。改开三十年,就这点出息?


再来谈谈另一条扶贫的主线。一个进城农民,洗车店的小老板,没忘记自己出生的王庙村,想借男主的人脉给家乡找条出路。在男主驾临村子的时候,他是这样介绍的:“这个村子,是贫困县里的贫困村,这么跟你说吧,好多人家的媳妇,都是从人贩子手里买来的。”男主表情平静,没有一点惊讶的神色,连眉头都不带皱一下的。编剧、导演、观众,表情平静,也是一副见惯不惊的神情。难怪66的老婆,在得知徐州事件有如此深广的反响和热度时,也颇为不解道,这不是常有的事么?08年的剧,可以堂而皇之的宣称,自己村里的媳妇,好多都是买的。到了22年,贾平凹说光棍村不买媳妇就要消亡被痛批。嗯,有进步。进步就是,现在买媳妇不能广而告之了。朕心甚慰。


天道,呵呵。那些自称替天行道的人们,无非是给自己杀人越货的强盗行径戴上一个正义的面具。好在时代的确是进步了,凯撒一路打到了英格兰,可还是大帝和英雄,普京只想染指乌克兰,却成了小丑。

Stand by me 在我身边 和我一起

by Ben E. King


 

When the night, has come

And the land is dark

And the moon, is the only light we'll see


No I won't, be afraid

No I won't, be afraid

Just as long, as you stand, stand by me


So darlin', darlin' stand, by me

Oh-oh stand by me

Oh stand, stand by me, stand by me


If the sky, that we look upon, should tumble and fall

Or the mountains, should crumble, to the sea

I won't cry, I won't cry, no-no-no I won't shed a tear

Just as long, as you stand, by me


And darlin', darlin' stand, by me

Oh-oh-oh, stand, by me

Oh darling, stand by me, stand by me, stand by me


Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand, by me

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, stand by me, stand by me, stand by me



夜幕降临

大地漆黑

明月是我们仅见的光


不  我并不恐惧

不  我不会害怕

只要你还在我身边 和我一起


那么 亲爱的 我的爱人 请和我在一起

哦  到我身边来

噢  和我在一起 不要分离


假若 我们仰仗的天空 翻滚坠落

抑或 山峦崩塌  陷入海底

我不哭  我不会哭泣 不 我不会流泪

只要你还在我身边  和我一起


现在  亲爱的 我的爱人 请和我在一起

哦  到我身边来

噢  和我在一起 不要分离


那么 亲爱的 我的爱人 请和我在一起

哦  到我身边来  和我在一起

每当你身处困境 我都在身边支持你

噢  和我在一起 不要分离
