Perfect

Perfect

虽然2018年高中毕业舞会选了这首歌回旋着播放，Ed Sheeran的Perfect并不完全是唱初恋的。这首歌恰到好处地描述着年少天真的相倾慕：赤脚在草地上，轻拥在男孩怀里，女孩的慌乱，男孩的倾心。就如歌词所倾诉的：是少艾相恋的男孩女孩，再次重逢的回忆，和陷入爱恋。我不知这首歌有没有中文翻译，英文歌词是这样的：

I found a love for me

Darling just dive right in

And follow my lead

Well I found a girl beautiful and sweet 

I never knew you were the someone waiting for me

'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love

Not knowing what it was

I will not give you up this time

But darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own

And in your eyes you're holding mine

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms

Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song

When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath

But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight

Well I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know

She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home

I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets

To carry love, to carry children of our own

We are still kids, but we're so in love

Fighting against all odds

I know we'll be alright this time

Darling, just hold my hand

Be my girl, I'll be your man

I see my future in your eyes

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms

Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song

When I saw you in that dress, looking so beautiful

I don't deserve this, darling, you look perfect tonight

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms

Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song

I have faith in what I see

Now I know I have met an angel in person

And she looks perfect

I don't deserve this

You look perfect tonight

 

这才是人生的常态，年少的心动和倾慕，天真美好。人生变动，也往往就没有了结局。经历了世事男女，偶有活回初恋的，那是真的难得，也使得这首歌成了经典。

 

Ed Sheeran就如很多原创歌手一样，声音并不是最好的，音色也不是很纯净，有沙沙拉拉的音在他的演唱中，却还是一下子就抓住了我的耳朵，他的真，不造作抓住了听友的耳朵和心。他年轻，才气横溢，不那么讲究造型，却就是他最得我心我想也是年轻人心之处。
