Verse 1

There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea.
海上曾有一座孤单的灰色的塔
You became the light on the dark side of me.
你变成了光，照亮我内心黑暗的一面
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill.
爱是毒品让我飘飘，却不能治疗

Chorus 1

But did you know,
但你知道么？
That when it snows,
当下雪的时候
My eyes become large and,
我眼睛睁大
The light that you shine can be seen.
你光芒闪耀

Baby,
I‘d like to compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
宝贝，我把你比幽暗中玫瑰之吻Ooh,
The more I get of you,
哦，我对你了解越多
Ooh...................
Stranger it feels, yeah.
我就越感到奇异
And now that your rose is in bloom.

这是seal演唱的，为电影蝙蝠侠做的主题歌。我第一次听到是我第一次买grammer提名磁带，那是种神奇的体验呀，不知道为什么这几年格莱美提名的歌曲似乎没有了，我只能听这些老歌了。

虽然这首歌多少有些暧昧，但也不是不能理解，特别是看了电影以后，呵呵。虽然歌可独立电影存在，但电影无疑暗示了歌曲的内容。
首先分析一下，我和你的关系。
你是我黑暗中的灯塔，这个比喻本没有什么新奇。因为batman的发生的底特律城，就是一座工业化的黑夜都市，batman是以灯塔（探照灯）的形式出现的，是对抗黑暗势力的“上帝”。歌唱者是以成城市里普通一员看待黑暗与拯救者。
奇特的是，歌唱者并不简单接受一个被拯救者的地位，他跳出来看，他认为batman或上帝只是让人high一下，却不能从根本解决问题。
人们向batman祈祷，他身上凝聚着祈祷者的力量，欢乐和痛苦。（祈祷也让祈祷者变得软弱？）他只是一味祈祷，就像加深的毒瘾，无法拒绝。
歌唱者又开始反思，这是不健康的，batman不过在制造迷幻。

但是，这种反思也被反思。当天上飘雪花的时候，我会睁大眼睛，看你闪耀。这里很奇特，大海灯塔的比喻被放弃了，但光的意象仍然保留，却是不确定的。

醉乡常客

哪句是“分析”？

正在分析，兄不要急切，呵呵。多日不见，问好。

homestudy

见一楼二楼问答，胡乱用一下成语。

醉乡常客倚马可待bulunuo急就章。

hehe,不知道为什么，现在写东西颇不耐烦，先拟个题目让自己写，否则就一划就不写了。

还是接着前面吧：第一个命题探讨了我和你的关系，第二个命题探讨光：
第一次的光是灯塔的光，used to be 表明灯塔的光已经是不存在了；
接着是在下雪时候的光，这时候的很奇特的，光影迷乱，黑夜和白天的界限也模糊了（twilight),也许是雪，也许是你闪耀的光，我睁大了眼睛，艰难地寻找。其实这时候，暗示了迷失的主题。
第3次，被比喻了，说明歌唱者已经能够确信光了，至少在他心目里是这样的：这是在吻玫瑰的时候，出现的光，在墓地。
墓地是死亡的告别场所，玫瑰是你和我之间的联系。要想搞清第3次的光，非搞清楚玫瑰这个意象不可了。

国内的版本也许是听的，所以很多错误，害我。我从国外又弄了个版本，也许好一点。
国外的也有错误，没有办法了。呵呵。反正我翻译的也不太准确。

First of all, it isn&#39;t "A Kiss from a Rose on the Grave", it is &#39;A Kiss from a Rose on the Grey&#39;. With that said,

- &#39;There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea.
You became the light on the dark side of me.&#39;

+ So there he was, a lone greying tower on the Sea. . .
He was lost, alone, misguided, a loner, the she found him(metaphorically) and changed his life for the better(the light) via LOVE(it is a love song, a waltz, but a love song as primarily).
____________________________________________________________

- &#39;Love remained a drug that&#39;s the high and not the pill.&#39;

+ A reference to the drug called Love. A drug that often provides highs and lows similar to addiction/abuse cycles.
___________________________________________________________

- &#39;But did you know,That when it snows, My eyes become large and The light that you shine can be seen.&#39;

+ This song phrase could be interpreted in many ways, I offer two intrpretations, the first, I have trouble with(note1). The second, makes no physiological sense buts sounds excellent but sounds excellent when versed.

first. . . Snow is Cocaine, when he is on it, he has an enhanced sensory experience)or whatever), which enables his to see her Aura. I don&#39;t like that interpretation because Seal, from what I have read, seen, and believe, is not one to take or mix drugs. Just because he may make the allusion to Cocaine, doesn&#39;t mean he is a user, but that it doesn&#39;t sound right in light of what we know about The Man. The guy is a fitness freak, married to one of the only models I consider well grounded. He is a perfecctionist.
He has kids. These things lead me to believe he wasn&#39;t referring to cocaine. like I said, I don&#39;t care for this version.

NEXT, more palatable version. . .

When it snows on the grey (a grey is a area on the sea, think English channel, or better, North Sea, where the weather is inclement and even when the Sun does shine, it isn&#39;t a bright sun.) Introducing Snow, changes his perception much like that of a child. With this change, he feels as though he knows her(reference to aura)completely.
This is a poetic interpretation). When it snows, your eyes(pupils) contract. But I don&#39;t think Seal meant the eyes from an ocular perspective, but from a characteristic perspective. With that said, I vote for #2
__________________________________________________________
- &#39;Baby&#39;
+ aka, Baby Girl, Lover, Sweetheart, her. . . but it may also be a reference to her age because later in the song, he comments that Now that your Rose is in Bloom may hold more meaning).
__________________________________________________________
- &#39;I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.&#39;

+ Don&#39;t we all, nudge nudge say no more. What is a Kiss from a rose? Well, most of the time it would be a positive thing. One where the beauty of the Rose, the sweet fragrance sweet, the soft petals could be enjoyed. But every once in awhile, your goona catch a thorn in the lip.
Something very painful indeed. It is a restatement of drug called Love havings its uppps, but some downs.
___________________________________________________________
Another allusion to Loves similarities to Drugs. . .
&#39;The more I get of you, Stranger it feels, yeah.&#39;
___________________________________________________________
- And now that your rose is in bloom. A light hits the gloom on the grey.

+ I am not sure if this is an implication that he knew her before she became a woman, but maybe. . .
BUt now that she is a woman, its ON
__________________________________________________________
- There is so much a man can tell you,So much he can say.

+ He can&#39;t put into words what she is doing to him. It should say, There is ONLY so much a man can verbalize, but what would the fun be in that?
___________________________________________________________

- You remain, My power, my pleasure, my pain, baby
To me you&#39;re like a growing addiction that I can&#39;t deny.
Won&#39;t you tell me is that healthy, baby?

+ More Love is a Drug comparative
___________________________________________________________
...And if I should fall along the way
I&#39;ve been kissed by a rose on the grave.

- This actually may be a legitimate reference to drug addiction as if is often called Falling down, or Falling Off, by addicts. . . Or, could just be more allusive wording.
___________________________________________________________

A very well drawn love story embedded in a Waltz

ANy additional thoughts out there?

sincerely,

放弃了，醉版如果觉得不好就扣掉2分吧。呵呵。楼上英文被毒品给带走了，虽然是篇迷幻诗但也不必跟着毒品联想。
