LEONARD COHEN - IN MY SECRET LIFE (AGE 18 AND UP)

我第一次听到这首歌, 是一个晚上,从UBC开出来, 沿着幽静的十街慢慢行驶. 这首歌幽幽地从收音机里传出, 沉着厚实的嗓音和当时的情景非常相配,随着车身的摇动,我真正地被迷住了,好像进入另一种生活, 我的SPIRITUAL LIFE. 又似乎被歌词带入梦幻,一种带着痛苦的梦幻.

后来在THE L WORD里又听到这首歌. 这里贴的VIDEO也是这部电视剧的片断. 可能很多人会不喜欢VIDEO的内容,但我实在喜欢这首歌,忍不住贴上来.几个可选择的VIDEO中好像也就是这个最配这首歌的歌词.

我迷上了LEONARD的嗓音, 尤其是AND I MISS YOU SO MUCH高上去的地方,回味无穷,这也是诱惑吧.

In my Secret Life

I saw you this morning.
You were moving so fast.
Cant seem to loosen my grip
On the past.
And I miss you so much.
Theres no one in sight.
And were still making love
In my secret life.

I smile when Im angry.
I cheat and I lie.
I do what I have to do
To get by.
But I know what is wrong,
And I know what is right.
And Id die for the truth
In my secret life.

Hold on, hold on, my brother.
My sister, hold on tight.
I finally got my orders.
Ill be marching through the morning,
Marching through the night,
Moving cross the borders
Of my secret life.

Looked through the paper.
Makes you want to cry.
Nobody cares if the people
Live or die.
And the dealer wants you thinking
That its either black or white.
Thank g-d its not that simple
In my secret life.

I bite my lip.
I buy what Im told:
From the latest hit,
To the wisdom of old.
But Im always alone.
And my heart is like ice.
And its crowded and cold
In my secret life.
