飯糰札記&飯糰媽吃喝玩樂雜記

Right Here Waiting是美國歌手兼作曲家

理查·馬克斯(Richard Marx)於1989年發行的歌曲

這首歌當年超級紅  許多人都能朗朗上口

聽老歌學英文的首發歌曲    就由它開始吧~~~

Right Here Waiting中文譯名為"此情可待"或"在此守候"  

據說是理查寫給當時暫時無法相聚的女友(也就是後來的妻子)

歌中充滿了濃烈的思念之情  深情等候   打動了許多人

底下的中文翻譯是我一字一句翻的     當然我英文沒那麼好

不懂的地方查了字典   也有看看其他人是怎麼翻的

最下面也會把一些我不認得或者覺得值得留意的單字或片語列出來

方便自己也方便大家學習記憶哦~~~趕緊一起來聽歌學英文吧!!!

【原文歌詞】 

Oceans apart, day after day 

And I slowly go insane 

I hear your voice on the line 

But it doesn't stop the pain 

If I see you next to never 

Then how can we say forever? 

Wherever you go 

Whatever you do 

I will be right here waiting for you 

Whatever it takes 

Or how my heart breaks 

I will be right here waiting for you 

I took for granted, all the times 

That I thought would last somehow 

I hear the laughter, I taste the tears 

But I can't get near you now 

Oh, can't you see it, baby? 

You've got me going crazy 

Wherever you go 

Whatever you do 

I will be right here waiting for you 

Whatever it takes 

Or how my heart breaks 

I will be right here waiting for you 

I wonder how we can survive this romance 

But in the end if I'm with you 

I'll take the chance 

Oh, can't you see it, baby? 

You've got me going crazy 

Wherever you go 

Whatever you do 

I will be right here waiting for you 

Whatever it takes 

Or how my heart breaks 

I will be right here waiting for you 

Waiting for you
