Promises like pie crust

新BLOG以来,竟然第一次贴音乐。
很旧的歌。那时Carla Bruni尚未嫁给猴子总统。
声音没有什么修饰,音乐也没有什么修饰,可句句唱进心扉。
中国媒体似乎并不怎么喜欢她。可是我觉得一位声音如此纯净,音乐如此纯净的女性,人也该是纯净的吧。
Promise me no promises,
So will I not promise you:
Keep we both our liberties,
Never false and never true:
Let us hold the die **,
Free to come as free to go:
For I cannot know your past,
And of mine what can you know?
You, so warm, may once have been
Warmer towards another one:
I, so cold, may once have seen
Sunlight, once have felt the sun:
Who shall show us if it was
Thus indeed in time of old?
Fades the image from the glass,
And the fortune is not told.
If you promised, you might grieve
For lost liberty again:
If I promised, I believe
I should fret to break the chain.
Let us be the friends we were,
Nothing more but nothing less:
Many thrive on frugal fare
Who would perish of excess.
Promises like pie-crust
Promises like pie-crust
