我就是強詞奪理....

我最喜愛的英文歌曲之ㄧ

星期六很幸運的在Brown Sugar又聽到一次

現場還有有獎徵答，答對演唱人送CD一張

因為我超喜歡這首歌

所以前奏出來我就知道了

沒想到還有人猜Mariah Carey

真讓我感嘆Alicia Keys有這麼不紅嗎?

 

一首令人喜愛的歌曲

不僅要有優美的旋律

能觸動人心的歌詞更是不可或缺

這首If I Ain't Got You 即是如此

很好奇以Alicia Keys這樣的年紀怎麼能寫出這樣的歌詞

亦或是就是要這樣的初生之犢才寫得出這樣的歌詞

 

轉貼歌詞如下

Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yeah
Some people live just to play the game
Some people think that the physical things
Define what's within
And I've been there before
But that life's a bore
So full of the superficial

[Chorus:]
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, Yeah

Some people search for a fountain
That promises forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
And that's the only way to prove you love them
Hand me the world on a silver platter
And what good would it be
With no one to share
With no one who truly cares for me

[Chorus:]
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, you, you
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, yeah

[Outro:]
If I ain't got you with me baby
So nothing in this whole wide world don't mean a thing
If I ain't got you with me baby
