Letter to Me 给自己的信

Letter to Me by Brad Paisley If I could write a letter to me And send it back in time to myself at 17 First I'd prove it's me By saying look under your bed There's a Skoal can and a Playboy No one else would know you hid And then I'd say I know it's tough When you break up after seven months And yeah I know you really liked her And it just don't seem fair All I can say is pain like that is fast and it's rare And oh you got so much going for you going right But I know at 17
She wasn't right for you And still you feel like There’s a knife sticking out of your back And you're wondering if you'll survive You'll make it through this and you'll see You're still around to write this letter to me At the stop sign at Tomlinson and Eighth Always stop completely Don’t just tap your breaks And when you get a date with Bridgett Make sure the tank is full On second thought forget it That one turns out kind of cool Each and every time you have a fight Just assume you're wrong and dad is right And you really should thank Mrs. Brinkman She spent so much extra time It's like she sees the diamond underneath And she's polishing you 'til you shine And oh you got so much going for you going right But I know at 17 It’s hard to see past Friday night Tonight's the bonfire rally
Because if you fail Algebra Mom and dad will kill you dead Trust me you'll squeak by and get a C And you're still around to write this letter to me You've got so much up ahead You'll make new friends You should see your kids and wife And I'd end by saying have no fear These are nowhere near the best years of your life I guess I'll see you in the mirror When you're a grown man P.S. go hug Aunt Rita every chance you can And oh you got so much going for you going right But I know at 17 It’s hard to see past Friday night I wish you'd study Spanish I wish you'd take a typing class I wish you wouldn't worry, let it be I'd say have a little faith and you'll see If I could write a letter to me To me 中文歌词 如果我能够给自己写信 我会寄给十七岁时的自己 首先我会证明那是我 我会说看看你的床下 那里有一个啤酒罐和一本《花花公子》 没人知道你把它们藏在哪了 然后我要说那令你很难受 当你交往了七个月的女孩儿和你分手 是啊，我知道你好喜欢她 那似乎不很公平 但我只能说那是短暂的痛苦而且极少发生 你有着美好的未来 但我知道在十七岁 很少有谁去想周五以后的事儿 她不适合你 你却依然
不知能否活下去 但最终你能熬过这一切并且看到 你仍然好好的并写这封信给我 在Tomlinson与第八街的交口处 看到停车信号时一定要将车停住 不要仅仅只是点一脚刹车 但你和Bridgett约会 要确信油箱是加满的 再仔细想想别太在意了 那女孩儿并不很酷 每一次的争执 就只当是你错了而爸爸是对的 你真要好好感谢Brinkman老师 她为你花费了那么多额外的时间 好像她看到了地下的钻石 她不停的打磨直到你闪闪发光 你有着美好的未来 但我知道十七岁时 很少有谁想周五晚上以后的事儿 今晚有个篝火晚会 但你会留在家里 因为一旦代数考不好 爸妈不会饶过你 相信我你会勉强得个C 但你仍然好好的写这封信给我 你前途似锦
你该看看你的妻儿 最后我要说别担心 这远不是你生命中最好的时候 我想当你变成一个成熟男人的时候 我们会在镜中再相见 还有：别忘了一有机会就给Rita阿姨一个拥抱 你有着美好的未来 但我知道十七岁时 很少有谁去想周五晚上以后的事儿 希望你学习西班牙文 去参加一个打字培训班 希望你别太忧虑，万事顺其自然 自信点，你会明白的 如果我能写封信给自己 给我自己 歌手简介
《5th Gear》是一张“忆当年”的专辑，整张专辑的曲风舒缓，令人充满联想，充满回忆。除了《Letter to Me》,主打单曲《Ticks》也很好听，并且在Billboard 乡村单曲榜中高居榜首，在乡村音乐电台播放的频率也很高，这首歌也是Brad Paisley在格莱美颁奖典礼上演唱的歌。Brad Paisley的吉他演奏出色，获得最佳乡村演奏奖的颇有Mark Knopfler神韵的吉他弹奏《Throttleneck》充满震撼，非常值得一听。 我听之我见 《Letter to Me》 是讲一个成熟男人写了一封信，寄给十七岁时的自己。第一次听到这首歌时心马上静了下来，想起了自己的中学时代。回忆中有很多青涩岁月，有很多自己觉得不能逾越的崁，有很多的困惑迷茫。给十七岁的自己写一封信：不要为了分手而心如刀绞，你最终能够熬过这一切；要感谢，珍惜一直帮助支持你的老师，她仿佛看到了地下的钻石，不停的打磨直到你闪闪发光；你的前途未知而美好，你该去学一学西班牙语再参加一个打字班……十七岁的你经历着转变，这种转变令你迷茫，令你困惑，但请相信这远不是你生命中最好的时光，你会成为一个成熟男人，展开你精彩的人生。 |
