Seasons of Love

 

Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes
Five hundred twenty-five thousand moments so dear
Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure-measure in a year?


In daylight-in sunsets
In midnight-in cups of coffee
In inches-in miles
In laughter-in strife
In five hundred twenty-five thoudand six hundred minutes
How do you measure A year of life?


How about love?
Measure in love Season of love.....

 


Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes
Five hundred twenty-five thousand journeys to plan
Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure the live of a woman or a man?


In truth that she learned or in times that he cried
In bridges he burned or the way that she died


It's time now to sing out
Though the story never ends
Let's celebrate
Remember a year in the life of friend
Remember the love
measure in love Seasons of love....

In diapers-report cards
In sports wheel-in speeding tickets
In contracts-dollars
In funerals-in births


In five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you figure a last year on earth?
Remember the love.....Seasons of love....


愛的季節
五十二萬五千六百分鐘,除此之外,還能用什麼來丈量一年的光陰?


以日出日落,以午夜以咖啡、以吋以哩,以歡笑以爭執?
除了五十二萬五千六百分鐘,還能用什麼來丈量這一年時光?


不如就用愛吧?能不能用愛來當光陰的單位?


五十二萬五千六百分鐘,就是五十二萬五千六百次值得計畫的旅行。
五十二萬五千六百分鐘,要如何衡量一個女人或男人的生命?


是用這一年中她能學到多少?或是他又哭了幾次?
用他的絕情 ,還是她的死亡?


現在該盡情歡唱,雖然故事永不結束,就讓我們用愛來慶祝,慶祝和好友共度的這一年。
記得用愛,用愛當作度量你生命的單位。


要用什麼來丈量一年的光陰?
是以尿布或成績單,以賽車方向盤或超速罰單,
以契約或金錢,以葬禮還是新生命?


在五十二萬五千六百分鐘中,你用什麼來丈量過去這一年?
記得用愛,讓一整年都是愛的季節。


這首歌是我合唱生涯的句點。

 

我還記得17歲的那個高二
瑋軒在台前含著淚指著這一首
成果展的最後一首安可曲
建中團真的選的好
該怎麼去衡量一年的時光呢?

 

我還記得第一次和聲的感動
第一次在新舞台百人大合唱的震撼
耳膜都為著和聲而震動
女生合唱了大半年
第一次和男生一起和
感受到低沉男聲的厚實滿足
彷彿歌曲有了靈魂
合唱帶我重新領略了音樂的魅力
雖然沒有再學鋼琴
但合唱卻開啟了我的另一段視野
我開始懂得去聽聲音背後的組合與故事

 

後來才聽了Seasons of Love這首歌
根本不用記就能一句句跟著唱
要怎麼去衡量一年的時光呢?
In daylight-in sunsets
In midnight-in cups of coffee
In inches-in miles
In laughter-in strife

 

我記得唱這些的時候
眼淚真的要掉下來
這段在高中歲月裡最起伏的回憶

 

In truth that she learned or in times that he cried
In bridges he burned or the way that she died

 

漂亮的和聲與言簡意賅的詞
Bravo!!!!
