阿左的甜蜜回憶二：Leave a Light On (Belinda Carlisle)

天氣又開始炎熱了，夏天似乎真的來到了。為此應該來點清涼的才對啊，不然怎麼渡過言炎夏日呢？

這次獻上的是八零年代非常紅的一首歌，想必也是跟阿左同年代的人絕對可以朗朗上口的一首歌。Belinda Carlisle的「Leave a Light On」。

Belinda Carlisle是美國八零年代最出名的女子團體「The Go-Go’s」的團員，1985年單飛之後開始了個人的音樂事業，並且獲得很好的成績。「Heaven Is a Place on Earth」還拿過單曲排行榜的冠軍。「Leave a Light on」則是出自1989年的專輯「Runaway Horses」，當年獲得第十一名的成績。這首歌聽起來其實相當的芭樂，不過輕快的曲風以及朗朗上口的歌詞都讓這首歌在當時的台灣風靡一時。

有沒有給它涼了起來呢？

Take my hand
Tell me what you are feeling
Understand
This is just the beginning

Although I have to go
It makes me feel like crying
I don’t know when I’ll see you again

Darling leave a light on for me
I’ll be there before you close the door
To give you all the love that you need
Darling leave a light on for me
’cause when the world takes me away
You are still the air that I breathe

I can’t explain I just don’t know
Just how far I have to go
But darling I’ll keep the key
Just leave a light on for me

Yes I know
What I’m asking is crazy
You could go
Just get tired of waiting
But if I lose your love
Torn out by my desire
That would be the one regret of my life

Just like a spark lights up the dark
Baby that’s your heart
Baby that’s your heart
Baby that’s your heart
