Glen Frey




Glen Frey 除了為自己樂隊The Eagles寫歌之外,也寫下這首經典情歌給自己,雖然較傷感,却能牽動人心

The one you love

I know you need a friend,
someone you can talk to
Who will understand what you're going through
When it comes to love,
there's no easy answer
Only you can say what you're gonna do
I heard you on the phone,
you took his number Said you weren't alone,
but you'd call him soon
Isn't he the guy, the guy who left you cryin'?
Isn't he the one who made you blue?
When you remember those nights in his arms
You know you gotta make up your mind Are you gonna stay with the one who loves you
Or are you goin' back to the one you love?
Someone's gonna cry when they know they've lost you
Someone's gonna thank the stars above What you gonna say when he comes over?
There's no easy way to see this through
All the broken dreams, all the disappointment
Oh girl, what you gonna do?
Your heart keeps sayin' it's just not fair
But still you gotta make up your mind Are you gonna stay with the one who loves you
Or are you goin' back to the one you love?
Someone's gonna cry when they know they've lost you
Someone's gonna thank the stars above



New Kid In Town

There’s talk on the street, it sounds so familiar.
Great expectations, everybody’s watching you.
People you meet they all seem to know you,
Even your old friends treat you like you’re something new.

Johnny-come-lately, the new kid in town,
Everybody loves you, so don’t let them down.

You look in her eyes, the music begins to play.
Hopeless romantics, here we go again.
But after a while you’re looking the other way.
It’s those restless hearts that never mend.

Johnny-come-lately, the new kid in town,
Will she still love you when you’re not around?

There’s so many things you should have told her
But night after night you’re willing to hold her,
Just hold her tears on your shoulder.

There’s talk on the street, it’s there to remind you
That it doesn’t really matter which side you’re on.
You’re walking away and they’re talking behind you.
They will never forget you till somebody new comes along.

Where you been lately? there’s a new kid in town.
Everybody loves him, don’t they? now he’s holding her
And you’re still around, oh my my.
There’s a new kid in town,
Just another new kid in town.

Oo-hoo, everybody’s talking ’bout the new kid in town.
Oo-hoo, everybody’s walking like the new kid in town.
There’s a new kid in town I don’t want to hear it
There’s a new kid in town I don’t want to hear it
There’s a new kid in town
There’s a new kid in town
There’s a new kid in town everybody’s talking
There’s a new kid in town people started walking
There’s a new kid in town



Tequila Sunrise又一首好歌

Its another tequila sunrise
Starin slowly cross the sky, said goodbye
He was just a hired hand
Workin on the dreams he planned to try
The days go by Evry night when the sun goes down
Just another lonely boy in town
And shes out runnin round

She wasnt just another woman
And I couldnt keep from comin on
Its been so long
Oh, and its a hollow feelin
whenIt comes down to dealin friends
It never ends

Take another shot of courage
Wonder why the right words never come
You just get numb
Its another tequila sunrise,
this old world Still looks the same,
Another frame, mm...

聽完Tequila Sunrise,使我想起看過一篇閒文:據聞寫下lyin' eyes的感是來自一間酒吧裡,當時五虎正在把酒閒談,說到環顧酒吧裡擁著美女的肥老頭,各人正在取笑這些美女時、、、、便即時把感受寫在餐巾上,不久Eagles就在75年發表了這首描繪社會百態的好歌。

即是如今無論在世界任何城市,你也會看到那雙嫵媚但憂怨的lyin' eyes。



城市女孩為求舒適安定的生活,下嫁年老但富有的丈夫,結果找到富逸而得不到愛情,只能不断糾纏在婚外情以求慰藉,換來的只是長夜的空虛。當你要作一個自欺的抉擇時,請先對鏡望一望自已那雙、、、、永不會說謊的眼睛。


Lying eyes


City girls just seem to find out early
How to open doors with just a smile
A rich old man And she won't have to worry
She'll dress up all in lace and go in style

Late at night a big old house gets lonely
I guess ev'ry form of refuge has its price
And it breaks her heart to think her love is Only
given to a man with hands as cold as ice

So she tells him she must go out for the evening
To comfort an old friend who's feelin' down
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin'
She is headed for the cheatin' side of town

You can't hide your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide your lyin eyes

On the other side of town a boy is waiting
with fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal
She drives on through the nice anticipating
'Cause he makes her feel the way she used to feel

She rushes to his arms, They fall together
She whispers that it's only for awhile
She swears that soon she'll be comin' back forever
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile

You can't hide your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide you lyin' eyes

She gets up and pours herself a strong one
And stares out at the stars up in the sky
Another night, it's gonna be a long one
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry

She wonders how it ever got this crazy
She thinks about a boy she knew in school
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy?
She's so far gone she feels just like a fool

My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things
You set it up so well, so carefully
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things
You're still the same old girl you used to be

You can't hide your lyin eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
Honey, you can't hide your lyin' eyes
