Whiskey Lullaby - Brad Paisley & Alison Krauss
收录于2003年发行的专辑《Mud On The Tires》是首不错的曲子
Whiskey Lullaby 威士忌安魂曲 安魂曲给人以神秘静谧的感觉 有一种潜在的忧伤
淡定的吉他和忧伤的歌词加上磁性的嗓音 无一不吸引人
这首合唱很是不错 沉醉而心疼
Lyrics
She put him out like the burnin' end of a midnight cigarette
She broke his heart he spent his whole life tryin' to forget
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
Until the night
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away her memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
We found him with his face down in the pillow
With a note that said I'll love her till I die
And when we buried him beneath the willow
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby
The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind
Until the night
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away his memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Clinging to his picture for dear life
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby
歌曲后还有个悲伤的故事
一对爱人深深地坠入了爱河,年轻的男子很快就被召入伍,离开了女孩所在的村庄。
女孩一直再等她的爱人回来,直到有个流言传入她的耳里
传说这个男子已经在一场战斗中牺牲,女孩痛不欲生,她扣响了结束她年轻的生命的扳机。
当这个年轻的男子在数年后回来,他再也找不到他的女朋友。
一次偶然的机会,他听闻这个女孩几年前已经嫁为人妇…
他不停地喝着WHISKY酒,不停地回想所有关于她和他们的所有的记忆……
他失控般地哭泣,酗酒……直到最后他扣响了结束生命的扳机。
之后,人们把他们埋葬在同一个墓穴里,来赞颂这至死不渝的爱情!
