不知道你們是怎么喜歡上一首歌的。我喜歡上一首歌通常是幾秒鐘的事情——當它前奏一響起，觸到我的心，那我就會鐘情，我不管那個歌手我到底喜不喜歡，ta人格如何，我只鐘情我喜歡的旋律和歌詞；如果一時不能愛上，那可能是不知道它創作背后的故事，如果故事能打動我，它也會列入我單曲循環的曲目。
英國民謠創作歌手Passenger的《Let her go》就是用它輕快的旋律，讓我的耳朵清醒。這首歌用一種近乎愉悅的音調，敘說一個惆悵的故事，一個關于得到與失去的故事，有點像哥哥的《Monica》。我很喜歡里面的兼具排比和起興的句子，only，only，only…說盡人生的變故和陣痛，這個“her”說的不僅僅是一個姑娘或愛情，我覺得它還代表的很多很多……
奧斯卡·王爾德有一句話可以概括這首歌：人生有兩個悲劇，第一是想得到的得不到，第二是想得到的得到了。
相信走過千山萬水后的你也會懂得，也會幡然醒悟：上天賜予你一場美夢，是為了支撐你堅定地、驕傲地走完這冗長的一生。
Let Her Go
---by Passenger
Well you only need the light when it's burning low
只有在朦朧黯淡時才念及燈火光亮
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
只有在冰天雪地時才懷念陽光溫暖
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在已然放手后才始知那是真愛
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
只有在身處低谷時才遙想過去崢嶸
Only hate the road when you're missing home
只有在鄉愁涌動時才痛恨旅途遙遠
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在已然放手后才始知那是真愛
And you let her go
但真愛已逝
Staring at the bottom of your glass
酒杯已空 醉然凝視
Hoping one day you'll make a dream last
癡妄有一天可以永遠沉醉于美夢
But dreams come slow and they go so fast
但你知道 夢來的溫柔 而醒的殘酷
You see her when you close your eyes
當你閉上雙眼 你仿佛看到了她
Maybe one day you'll understand why
也許終有一天你會領悟
Everything you touch surely dies
你是如何親手毀掉了一段摯愛
But you only need the light when it's burning low
但你只有在朦朧黯淡時才念及燈火光亮
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
只有在冰天雪地時才懷念陽光溫暖
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在已然放手后才始知那是真愛
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
只有在身處低谷時才遙想過去崢嶸
Only hate the road when you're missing home
只有在鄉愁涌動時才痛恨旅途遙遠
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在已然放手后才始知那是真愛
Staring at the ceiling in the dark
繁星滿天 你癡癡的望著天花板
Same old empty feeling in your heart
又是一個無比寂寞空虛的無眠夜
Cos love comes slow and it goes so fast
愛情來的溫柔 去的殘酷
Well you see her when you fall asleep
如今你只得在夢里與她相見
But never to touch and never to keep
可這夢脆弱的經不起觸碰 經不起長久
'Cause you loved her too much and you dive too deep
你愛她越深 你亦而陷的越深
Well you only need the light when it's burning low
只有在朦朧黯淡時才念及燈火光亮
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
只有在冰天雪地時才懷念陽光溫暖
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在已然放手后才始知那是真愛
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
只有在身處低谷時才遙想過去崢嶸
Only hate the road when you're missing home
只有在鄉愁涌動時才痛恨旅途遙遠
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在已然放手后才始知那是真愛
And you let her go
但真愛已逝
And you let her go
但真愛已逝
Well you let her go
但真愛已逝
'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
只有在朦朧黯淡時才念及燈火光亮
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
只有在冰天雪地時才懷念陽光溫暖
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在已然放手后才始知那是真愛
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
只有在身處低谷時才遙想過去崢嶸
Only hate the road when you're missing home
只有在鄉愁涌動時才痛恨旅途遙遠
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在已然放手后才始知那是真愛
'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
只有在朦朧黯淡時才念及燈火光亮
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
只有在冰天雪地時才懷念陽光溫暖
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在已然放手后才始知那是真愛
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
只有在身處低谷時才遙想過去崢嶸
Only hate the road when you're missing home
只有在鄉愁涌動時才痛恨旅途遙遠
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在已然放手后才始知那是真愛
And you let her go
但真愛已逝
