很多年前,甬江边的夏日,晚风宜人,几个年轻人吃完大排档,借着些啤酒的酒劲,边走边吼着“空中补给站”的歌。我一个刚从学校毕业的小屁孩,跟着已经在进出口公司跌打数年的“社会青年”,无比向往他们随意从VOA口音转换到BBC口音的酷,和毫无费劲地复制这浪漫高音的潇洒,也从此知道了空中补给站。不久后,我远走他乡,和小哥们失去了联络,他们的音乐成了我怀念他们的最好的补给。
几年前,在温哥华看乐队的现场演唱会,旧曲唱响,当年甬江边的心潮澎湃,却已随风飘远。
Thinking of you till it hurts
I know you hurt too but what else can we do
Tormented and torn apart
I wish I could carry your smile and my heart
For times when my life seems so low
It would make me believe what tomorrow could bring
When today doesn't really know, doesn't really know
I know you were right believing for so long
I'm all out of love, what am I without you
I can't be too late to say that I was so wrong
Away from this long lonely nights
I'm reaching for you, are you feeling it too
Does the feeling seem oh so right
And what would you say if I called on you now
And said that I can't hold on
There's no easy way, it gets harder each day
Please love me or I'll be gone, I'll be gone
