Birdy – Wild Horses
[Verse 1]
I’m a dreamer
我是個夢想家
But it’s hard to sleep when your head’s not in it
但你不在身邊時 卻連入睡都難
I’ve been restless
我急躁不已
Cause you disappeared and that’s all that’s missing
你突然離去 似乎一切都失去意義
The Earth is loose under my shoes
我再也站不穩
There’s an angel
我看見一個天使
And he’s shaped like you, and I thought I knew him
有著你的輪廓 看起來很眼熟
There’s a window
我看見一扇窗
And it’s dark inside, but the light was in it
漆黑一片 卻有盞燈在裡頭
This can’t be love if it hurts so much
如此傷人 這可真是愛的本質？
I need to let go
我必須放手
[Chorus]
I will survive and be the one who’s stronger
我會挺過艱辛 變得更堅強
I will not beg you to stay
不會求你留下
I will move on and you should know I mean it
真心向前看
Wild horses run in me
如一匹脫韁野馬
[Verse 2]
I remember
我還記得
How we danced so close, I would stand on your feet
與你親密共舞
And the phone calls
與你徹夜談心
That would last all night, they were lifeboats to me
你總是我的救星
Our fading scars just shooting stars
但美好回憶成了醜陋傷疤
They’re here, then go
我願傷疤變成流星飛過
[Chorus]
I will survive and be the one who’s stronger
我會挺過艱辛 變得更堅強
I will not beg you to stay
不會求你留下
I will move on and you should know I mean it
真心向前看
Wild horses run in me
如一匹脫韁野馬
[Bridge]
A human hurts, forgets how strong they are
一旦受了傷 便想不起自己原本多堅強
And they get lost along the way, hey
迷失方向 但記住
It’s not giving up, it’s letting go
你該做的是放手 不是放棄
And moving to a better place
相信下一步會更好
[Chorus]
I will survive and be the one who’s stronger
我會挺過艱辛 變得更堅強
I will not beg you to stay
不會求你留下
I will move on and you should know I mean it
真心向前看
Wild horses run in me
如一匹脫韁野馬
I will survive and be the one who’s stronger
我會挺過艱辛 變得更堅強
I will not beg you to stay
不會求你留下
I will move on and you should know I mean it
真心向前看
Wild horses run in me
如一匹脫韁野馬
Birdy – Beautiful Lies album
柏蒂 Birdy 2016 年新專輯 Beautiful Lies 中的歌曲 Wild Horses 猶如先前的單曲 Let It All Go 一般鼓舞人心，撫慰所有受傷的心靈。兩首歌的內容十分相似，不過曲風卻完全不同。 Let It All Go 與David Rhodes 合唱，沈穩的嗓音配上抒情的鋼琴配樂，令人先因分手難過一番，再開始思索如何振奮，而 Wild Horses 則一開始就節奏明快，帶給人截然不同的感覺。
歌詞內容敘述一段破碎的感情。歌曲中的女主角起初也捨不得放手，”an angel shaped like you” 指的就是仍然徘徊在心中忘不掉的回憶。暗室中的光則表示再怎麼悲傷的困境都有走出來的可能。”Our fading scars just shooting stars/ They’re here, then go”把永遠烙印在身上的傷疤比喻成流星，讓它劃過天際成為最美的句點。
不可否認， Birdy 的聲音及音樂真的能帶給人很多正能量，但個人還是比較喜歡像是 Strange Birds 那樣的曲風，畢竟悲傷比喜悅更容易傳染，是吧？
