偷一次懒，就当歌词是对歌最好的诠释，背景音乐中Savage Garden（野人花园）的几首歌歌词如下，我个人最欣赏 Affirmation的词。

Santa Monica

in santa monica in the winter time
the lazy streets so undemanding
i walk into the crowd
in santa monica you get your coffee from
the coolest places on the promenade
where people dress just so
beauty so unavoidable
everywhere you turn
it’s there
i sit and wonder what am i doing here?

but on the telephone line i am anyone
i am anything i want to be
i could be a supermodel or norman mailer
and you wouldn’t know the difference
or would you?

in santa monica, all the people got
modern names
like jake or mandy
and modern bodies too
in santa monica, on the boulevard,
you’ll have to dodge those in-line skaters
or they’ll knock you down
i never felt so lonely,
never felt so out of place
i never wanted something more than this

but on the telephone line i am anyone
i am anything i want to be
i could be a supermodel or norman mailer
and you wouldn’t know the difference

on the telephone line, i am any height
i am any age i want to be
i could be a caped crusader, or
space invader
and you would know the difference
or would you?
or would you?

on the telephone line i am anyone
i am anything i want to be
i could be a supermodel or norman mailer
and you wouldn’t know the difference

Tears of Pearls

And we stare each other down like victimes in the grind
Prbig all the weakness and hurt still left behind and we cry
The tears of pearls
We do it Oh we do it
Is love really the tragedy the way you might describe?
Or would a thousand lovers still leave you cold inside?
Make you cry…These tears of pearls
All these mixed emotions we keep locked away like stolen pearls
Stolen pearl devoeions we keep locked away from all the world
Your kisses are like pearls,so different and so rare
But anger stole the jewels away and love has left you bare
Made you cry…
These tears of pearls
Well I could be the tired joker pour my heart to get you in
Sacrifice my happiness just so I could win
Maybe cry…
These tears of pearls
All these mixed emotions we keep locked away like stolen pearls
Stolen pearl devotions we keep locked away from all the world
We twist and turn where angels burn
Like fallen soldiers we will learn
That once forgotten,twice remoed
Love will be the death…
The death of you
All these mixed emotions we keep locked away like stolen pearls
Stolen pearl devotions we keep locked away from all the world

Affirmation

I believe the sun should never set upon an argument
I believe we place our happiness in other people’s hands
I believe that junk food tastes so good because it’s bad for you
I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do
I believe that beauty magazines promote low self esteem
I believe I’m loved when I’m completely by myself alone

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can’t appreciate real love until you’ve been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don’t know what you’ve got until you say goodbye

I believe you can’t control or choose your sexuality
I believe that trust is more important than monogamy
I believe your most attractive features are your heart and soul
I believe that family is worth more than money or gold
I believe the struggle for financial freedom is unfair
I believe the only ones who disagree are millionaires

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can’t appreciate real love until you’ve been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don’t know what you’ve got until you say goodbye

MUSIC

I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness
I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed
I believe that God does not endorse TV evangelists
I believe in love surviving death into eternity

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can’t appreciate real love until you’ve been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don’t know what you’ve got until you say goodbye

I KNEW I LOVED YOU

Maybe it’s intuition
But some things you just don’t question
Like in your eyes
I see my future in an instant
And there it goes
I think I’ve found my best friend
I know that it might sound more than a little crazy
But I believe

I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life

There’s just no rhyme or reason
Only this sense of completion
And in your eyes
I see the missing pieces
I’m searching for
I think I’ve found my way home

I know that it might sound more than a little crazy
But I believe

I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life

A thousand angels dance around you
I am complete now that I’ve found you

I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life
