回忆里的河

也许是一个年结束之前的contemplation 发酵了，也许不是。
但当回忆像一条河，尤其是当抖动在同一频率之际

这首歌，让我想起的尽是旅行的事。
我想起了
吴哥窟旁的河畔；
三藩市的palace of fine arts的河畔；
布拉格卡夫卡博物馆后的河畔；
或老家后那条黑桥，父亲载我上学必经之道。
静静想起，那些身边有人或一个人的时光，
静静在河畔，看着河面上的粼粼波光
那是音乐，也是旅行；那是沉淀，也是宁静。


But,
I am getting older
I need somewhere to begin



I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete

Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting tired and I need someone to rely on

I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?

Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on

And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything,
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know
Somewhere only we know

Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need someone to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
'Cause this could be the end of everything,
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know?
