踏入十一月尾, 天氣開始微涼… 不經不覺又踏入冬季, 聖誕也快將來臨…
不知從何時開始, 對聖誕這個節日感覺已很陌生, 漸漸對它沒有了期待!
每個人也總會有自己的聖誕歌, 另類些的會是”今天應該很高興”, “Lonely Christmas” 甚至是 “今年沒聖誕”;
大家心中的聖誕的歌聲早已換了跟兒時的不一樣… 沒有天使佳音, 更沒有鹿車鈴聲…
近年差不多到聖誕節, 心中一定會響起這首歌的旋律… 歌詞內, 除了提過聖誕樹之外, 似乎跟聖誕沒大關連… 也許… 是那套電影給人的感覺太深刻了吧?
When I was small, and christmas trees were tall,
We used to love while others used to play.
Don’t ask me why, but time has passed us by,
Some one else moved in from far away.
(chorus)
Now we are tall, and christmas trees are small,
And you don’t ask the time of day.
But you and i, our love will never die,
But guess we’ll cry come first of may.
The apple tree that grew for you and me,
I watched the apples falling one by one.
And I recall the moment of them all,
The day I kissed your cheek and you were mine.
(chorus…)
When I was small, and christmas trees were tall,
Do do do do do do do do do…
Don’t ask me why, but time has passed us by,
Some one else moved in from far away.
