《 Supertramp - Take The Long Way Home 》

【妖言惑眾】

愛與憎恨是一體兩面共生著，

我們應該要自覺到的。

愛是因憎恨所變形，

而演化出來而存在的一個面相。

愛之所以會作為愛而存在，

並非是我們自己努力所產生的。

具備了瞬間轉化成憎恨的那種熱烈激情的愛，

就是在那一剎那間被賦于了，

以如此易於流動的、珍貴的形式出現，

這未必是人本身的原罪。

所以，不是愛上了。

而是我們恰如其時，恰如其份地被賦于了，

去『愛人』的能力罷了。

《 Supertramp - Take The Long Way Home 》

So you think you're a Romeo

playing a part in a picture-show

Take the long way home

Take the long way home

'Cause you're the joke of the neighborhood

Why should you care if you're feeling good

Take the long way home

Take the long way home

But there are times that you feel you're part of the scenery

All the greenery is comin' down, boy

And then your wife seems to think you're part of the

furniture oh, it's peculiar, she used to be so nice.

When lonely days turn to lonely nights

You take a trip to the city lights

And take the long way home

Take the long way home

You never see what you want to see

Forever playing to the gallery

You take the long way home

Take the long way home

And when you're up on the stage, it's so unbelievable,

Oh unforgettable, how they adore you,

But then your wife seems to think you're losing your sanity,

Oh, calamity, is there no way out?

Does it feel that your life's become a catastrophe?

Oh, it has to be for you to grow , boy.

When you look through the years and see what you could

have been oh, what you might have been,

If you'd had more time.

So, when the day comes to settle down,

Who's to blame if you're not around?

You took the long way home

You took the long way home...
