first day of my life
我好像太常提到Bright Eyes了。剛剛發現這首歌的MV,很簡單,很可愛,那些肢體語言實在很像甜蜜的情侶。因為畫面有某種特殊的感覺,瞥了一眼MV導演,啊,竟然是Hedwig and the Angry Inch的導演,真是驚喜,此二人皆是我會一邊聽音樂一邊搖頭嘆息人家怎會是如此之有才華的人哪。(後來查了一下,原來導演真找了一些情侶來做訪談,並拍下他們第一次聽這首歌的樣子。)
First Day Of My Life
This is the first day of my life
I swear I was born right in the doorway
I went out in the rain suddenly everything changed
They’re spreading blankets on the beach
Yours is the first face that I saw
I think I was blind before I met you
Now I don’t know where I am
I don’t know where I’ve been
But I know where I want to go
And so I thought I’d let you know
That these things take forever
I especially am slow
But I realize that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home
Remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning
And I thought it was strange you said everything changed
You felt as if you had just woke up
And you said “this is the first day of my life
I’m glad I didn’t die before I met you
But now I don’t care I could go anywhere with you
And I’d probably be happy”
So if you want to be with me
With these things there’s no telling
We just have to wait and see
But I’d rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery
Besides maybe this time is different
I mean I really think you like me
