Star
Bryan Adams

what cha wanna be - when you grow up
what cha gonna do - when your time is up
what cha gonna say - when things go wrong
what cha gonna do - when you're on your own

there's a road
long and winding
the lights are blindin'
but it gets there
don't give up
don't look back
there's a silver linin'
it's out there somewhere

everybody wants an answer  
everybody needs a friend
we all need a shinin' star on which we can depend
n' so tonight we're gonna wish upon a star
we never wished upon before
(to find what we're looking for)

there'll be times
in your life
ya when you'll be dancin' n' *****
but you ain't gettin it
but don't get disillusioned
no, don't expect too much
cuz if what you have is all you can get
just keep trying
it just ain't happened yet

everybody wants to be a winner
everybody has a dream
we all need a shinin' star when things ain't what they seem
so tonight we're gonna wish upon a star
we've never wished upon before
(gotta get where you're headed for)

everybody wants some kindness
everybody needs a break
we all need a shinin' star when things get hard to take
so tonight we're gonna wish upon a star
we've never wished upon before

這首歌是『家有傑克』的主題曲。
很老的電影，但很經典。
從我高中就非常喜歡這首歌，直到現在...。

聽了好一陣吵到耳朵會掉下來的歌曲，
最近心好累，沒辦法承受那些，
好像稍微大一點點的振動都會裂掉。
不知不覺想起這首歌，於是點開讓他靜靜唱，跟著詞看著。

我喜歡它的歌詞。
大家也許可以品味一下，請別看到它是英文就自動忽略。{笑}
馬賽克的那個部份是髒字。
當初要選英語教唱歌曲時，有私心的考慮過這首，但看到那個字只好放棄。
話又說回來，
我覺得它非在那不可，少了它反而少了點韻味呢。
那些口語話的英文通常我不喜歡，但在此也留下了。
這是一首很美式的歌，很美式的調調，美式到我不想用中文整首翻譯它。

不激烈，也沒告訴你怎麼解決身邊的一團糟，
僅是說出許多事實，還有這個社會中無法改變的無奈事情。
但是，
這首歌讓人有種『是的，我都懂。我懂全世界都正give you *****』那樣的感覺...。

聽了，會讓雜亂心情稍微安靜一點點的歌...。

忘了說，
我很喜歡他微啞的聲音說don't give up...。
還有因為歌很淡，總覺得聽一遍不夠，會繼續聽很多次。{再笑}

『we all need a shining star when things aren't what they seem.』
我們都需要一顆閃亮的星星，當事情不是它們看起來的那樣...。

『cause if what you have is all you can get, just keep trying, it just aren't happened yet.』
因為，只要你所擁有的都是可以靠你自己獲得的，繼續努力，它只是還沒發生罷了...。
