Only Yesterday

The Carpenters
Only Yesterday (1975)

After long enough of being alone
Everyone must face their share of loneliness
In my own time nobody knew
The pain I was goin' through
And waitin' was all my heart could do

Hope was all I had until you came
Maybe you can't see how much you mean to me
You were the dawn breaking the night
The promise of morning light
Filling the world surrounding me
When I hold you

(*) Baby, Baby
Feels like maybe things will be all right
Baby, Baby
Your love's made me
Free as a song singin' forever

(**) Only yesterday when I was sad
And I was lonely
You showed me the way
to leave the past and all its tears behind me
Tomorrow may be even brighter than today
Since I threw my sadness away
Only Yesterday

I have found my home here in your arms
Nowhere else on earth I'd really rather be
Life waits for us
Share it with me
The best is about to be
So much is left for us to see
When I hold you

Repeat (*)
Repeat (**) twice

雖然係一首情歌
講男女之間既愛係會令人忘記昨天的不快
但係重點唔響呢度

Bold左果幾句歌詞真係好有好有意思
Carpenters既歌詞永遠都係咁簡單淺白但係意味深長
Yesterday永遠只會係Only Yesterday
擦掉今天的眼睙明日重新開始吧="]

二零一四年八月二十四日

偶爾重看這篇博客，記起當初寫它時候的初衷。想起那些往事那個人，想起自己從前的愚昧，也想起當時的一廂情願。受傷只因為太上心，自卑而變得不再勇敢。

究竟有多少後事，是從這緣起而來。

仍然泛起了一絲傷感。
