Ten Storey Love Song

※ [ 本文轉錄自 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) Brit-pop 看板 ]

為了要繼續假裝自己才是本 Brit-pop 看板上 The Stone Roses 的頭號擁躉，所以也不管現在是什麼場合情境，更無論其實是否應該還有更貼切合適的歌，總而言之，反正，嗯，來吧。



「情歌教人害怕，是因為無法自拔。」
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　→ 陳昇【恨情歌】專輯內頁文案。



都說那些流芳百世的情歌之所以讓人刻骨銘心，乃因為她們往往都是在吟唱泣訴著愛情的不完美。

damn! all these heart-breaking tunes, all these ever-sung loveless love songs.

又聽說這年頭耍憂鬱裝可憐已經不流行了。說要走陽光路線才吃香。如果順便又剛好個性很活潑、談吐很幽默、長相還很可愛，那就更完美了。啊，我可以順便在這裡徵友嗎？符合以上條件的朋友們歡迎來信，無誠勿擾，年齡星座血型不拘，免經驗可，待遇面議，喜愛英式搖滾尤佳... ^%$*^**&($%&*( 哈啾。冷掉了。

在這一年一度血腥的暴力的情人節裡，苦情、悲情、慘情，那都太 over 了，如果還要再聽那些太傷心的（無）情歌，那就太耽溺自憐啦。來，我們要快樂一點，即使暫時真的就還沒遇到那個「對的人」，即使只是故作堅強，都好。不要再聽太傷心的情歌了，來些幸福的感覺吧。可是也不要太炫耀，更切忌亂灑狗血。

說我愛妳，輕輕地、淡淡地，會心一笑的，點到即止的，微甜。hey, c'mon! it's supposed to be a happy holiday, right? my funny valentine, yes you are. :)

Ten Storey Love Song

When your heart is black and broken
And you need a helping hand
When you're so much in love
You don't know just how much you can stand


When your questions go unanswered
And the silence is killing you
Take my hand baby, I'm your man
I got love enough for two

Ten storey love song
I built this thing for you
Who can take you any higher
Than twin peak mountain blue?
Oh well, I built this thing for you
And I love you true

There's no sure fire set solution
No short cut through the trees
No breach in the wall
That they put there
To keep me from you

As you're lying awake in the darkness
This everlasting night
Someday soon
Don't know where or when
You're gonna wake up and see the light

Ten storey love song
I built this thing for you
Who can take you any higher
Than twin peak mountain blue?
Oh well, I built this thing for you
And I love you true
