悲伤的周日晚上——《What Are Words》
周日的晚上最容易悲伤，所以听《What Are Words》。
这首歌来自于美国的一个选秀节目，由Chris Medina演唱，背后有个非常悲伤的爱情故事，发生意外的女孩，不离不弃的男孩，让这首深情的歌火遍大街小巷，从国外一直火到国内。
有次整理歌单的时候，把包括这首歌在内的很多歌都清理了，因为觉得听了太久，没有了新鲜感。然后，在厦门的一个雨天，躲在一家店里避雨，老板正好在放这首歌，就忽然觉得，还是很好听啊，广为流传的东西果然自有道理。
然后，前两年这首歌突然又翻红了，因为有人给它填了中文歌词，重新翻唱。恕我直言，歌词很普通了，毫无亮点，不过很现实，很直白，所以还是被追捧了一阵子，可那段时间，真是让我太别扭了。
原版歌词如下：
Anywhere you are, I am near
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
Anytime you whisper my name, you'll see
Where every single promise I keep
Cause what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most
What are words
If you really don't mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they're only for good times
Then they done
When it's love
Yeah, you say them out-loud those words
They never go away
They live on, even when we're gone
And I know an angel was sent just for me
And I know I'm meant to be where I am
And I'm gonna be standing right beside her tonight
And I'm gonna be by your side
I would never leave when she needs me most
What are words
If you really don't mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they're only for good times
Then they done
When it's love
Yeah, you say them out-loud those words
They never go away
They live on, even when we're gone
Anywhere you are, I am near
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
And I'm gonna be here forever more
Every single promise I keep
Cause what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most
I'm forever keeping my angel close
