熊眼看歌 - The Rose (Bette Midler)

自少喜歡看宮崎駿的的卡通漫畫, 喜歡它的故事, 總是帶著對人對世界的一份情, 溫婉細緻中帶著濃濃的情感, 故事好看之餘又有啟發性, 而在“歲月的童話”中, 我等一次聽到這首歌, 自此喜歡上~
愛, 也許, 就是如歌中所說, 當我們身處其中, 其實理智與感情已經分不清誰主導了.

The Rose

Some say love, it is a river that drowns the tender reed.
Some say love, it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger, an endless aching need.
I say love, it is a flower, and you its only seed.

It’s the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance.
It’s the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance.
It’s the one who won’t be taken, who cannot seem to give,
and the soul afraid of dyin’ that never learns to live.

When the night has been so lonely and the road has been too long,
and you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong,
just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed that with the sun’s love in the spring becomes the rose.

(找到很喜歡的中譯版)
有人說愛情是一條河，會把柔嫩的蘆葦淹沒，
有人說愛情是一把利刃，終將讓你的靈魂淌血，
有人說愛情是一種渴望，雖然苦痛卻是無盡的需求，
我說愛情是一朵花，而你正是這朵花的種子。

是那顆害怕破碎的心，所以永遠學不會起舞。
是那場害怕醒來的夢，所以永遠也抓不住機會。
是那顆不願被佔據的心，所以似乎也無法付出。
是那個畏懼死去的靈魂，所以永遠也學不會怎麼去生存。

每當夜幕低垂孤寂難耐，路途遙不可期，
而你認為愛情只會眷顧那些幸運與堅強的人。
千萬別忘了冬季裡，深深的寒雪下，
埋著一顆種子等待陽光愛的薰陶，
於來春時開出璀璨的玫瑰。
