camce

14歲的Birdy，她曾經在2008年參加英國歌唱選秀節目，
並奪得分齡組的冠軍。現在她推出了第一首單曲，
是翻唱很有名的Bon Iver的"Skinny Love"。
Birdy自彈(彈鋼琴)自唱

Come on, skinny love! just last the year
Pour a little salt we were never here
My my my, my my my, my my my my, my my ...
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer
他被舊愛所傷，所困，走不出舊愛的影子，
帶著如同鬼魂般的跟隨，他永遠無法延續一段新的戀情。
如今，面對目前這一段感情也是....
這份愛情日漸消瘦，瘦到僅剩皮包骨。
明知注定要失敗的愛情，他仍希望至少可以撐久一點。
或許之前倒點鹽來治療傷口，那麼，他們也不至於會有這樣的結果----
滿目瘡痍的愛情。


I tell my love to wreck it all
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
My my my, my my my, my my my my, my my ...
Right in the moment this order's tall
在滿腹愧疚與自責下，他要她放棄他，
因為以現在的他還是無法好好愛她的。


And I told you to be patient
And I told you to be fine
And I told you to be balanced
And I told you to be kind
And in the morning I'll be with you
But it will be a different kind
Cause I'll be holding all the tickets
And you'll be owning all the fines
這是"他"與"他的內心"對話，
他千萬囑咐要"自己"對這新的愛情有耐心，很好的，保持平衡，體貼點，
即使晚上還在與過去的鬼魂糾纏，隔天一早也會變得不一樣。
因為不這樣的話，終究是"自己"要付出代價。


Come on, skinny love, what happened here?
Suckle on the hope in light brassieres
My my my, my my my, my my my my, my my ...
Sullen load is full, so slow on the split
但究竟這份愛怎麼了？
歷經無數的痛後，對現在僅存的愛還抱著一絲絲的希望，卻....
所以，已經太痛了，可不可以分開的事就慢慢來...


And I told you to be patient
And I told you to be fine
And I told you to be balanced
And I told you to be kind
And now all your love is wasted
And who the hell was I?
Cause now I'm breaking at the britches
And at the end of all your lines
要自己做的事都沒能做到，
好了，這份愛都白費了，那之前我到底算什麼呢？
一切再也無法挽回

Who will love you?
Who will fight?
Who will fall, far behind?
再也沒有人會愛他，他還能再戰嗎？不，他將遠遠的落於人後

Come on skinny love
My my my, my my my, my my my my, my my ...
My my my, my my my, my my my my, my my ...
對於這份愛，他已情緒激動或哽咽到無法好好的表達....
