I Don't Wanna Wait

From Paula Cole《 This Fire》 1996

即使不看歌的MV，

聽完應該也在心裡演完一齣美麗的故事...

(不過mv好像比專輯完整的歌曲少了1分鐘)

So open up your morning light, 

And say a little prayer for I

You know that if we are to stay alive 

Then see the peace in every eye...

She had two babies, one was six months, one was three In the war of '44... 

Every telephone ring, every heartbeat stinging 

When she thought it was God calling her Oh, would her son grow to know his father? 

I don't want to to wait for our lives to be over, 

I want to know right now what will it be I don't want to wait for our lives to be over, 

Will it be yes or will it be...sorry? 

He showed up all wet on the rainy front step 

Wearing shrapnel in his skin 

And the war he saw lives inside him still, 

It's so hard to be gentle and warm 

The years pass by and now he has granddaughters 

You look at me from across the room 

You're wearing your anguish again 

Believe me I know the feeling It sucks you into the jaws of anger 

So breathe a little more deeply my love 

All we have is this very moment 

And I don't want to do what his father, 

And his father, and his father did, I want to be here now 

So open up your morning light,

And say a little prayer for I You know that if we are to stay alive, 

Then see the love in every eye...

這也是電影City Of Angels 的廣告曲，

Meg Ryan總有一種特殊的魔力令我著迷...

可能是她率性的外八步伐...

可能是她自然不做作的笑顏...

也可能是她迷人的翠綠色眼珠...

這部電影，有些悲傷...

不過，我更不解....中文片名「X情人」？

跟英文片名還有電影內容有啥....干係！
