Leave
a light on Tom Walker (Steve Mac / Thomas Alexander Walker) The second someone mentioned you were all alone I could feel the trouble coursing through your veins Now I know it's got a hold Just a phone call left unanswered had me sparking up These cigarettes won't stop me wondering where you are Don't let go, keep a hold *If you look into the distance There's a house upon the hill Guiding like a lighthouse to a place Where you'll be safe to feel our grace 'Cause we've all made mistakes If you've lost your way **I will leave the light on I will leave the light on I will leave the light on I will leave the light on ( I will leave the light on ) Tell me what's been happening What's been on your mind? Lately you've been searching for a darker place to hide That's alright But if you carry on abusing You'll be robbed from us I refuse to lose another friend to drugs Just come home, don't let go (*,**) If you look into the distance There's a house upon the hill Guiding like a lighthouse It's a place where you'll be safe to feel our grace And if you've lost your way If you've lost your way ( I will leave the light on ) And I know you're down and out now But I need you to be brave Hiding from the truth ain't gonna make this all okay I see your pain, if you don't feel our grace And you've lost your way I will leave the light on I will leave the light on 'Cause I will leave the light on |
留一盞燈 湯姆沃克 第二次聽到有人提起說你孤單一人 我能夠感受流過你血管內的苦惱 現在我明白它已控制了你 不過是一通沒人接聽的電話讓我點燃了菸 幾根香菸都無法讓我停止臆測你在何方 別放手,撐下去 如果你眺望遠方 山坡上有一棟房子 像燈塔一樣指引你到一個處所 在那兒可以安然無恙的領受恩典 因為我們都曾犯錯 如果你已迷失方向 我會留一盞燈 我會留一盞燈 我會留一盞燈 我會留一盞燈 ( 我會留一盞燈 ) 告訴我發生了什麼事? 你心裡怎麼想的? 最近你一直想找個更陰暗的地方躲藏 沒關係的 但如果你繼續放縱 等於從我們身邊被搶走 我不想因為毒品又失去一個朋友 回家吧!別放棄 如果你眺望遠方 山坡上有一棟房子 像燈塔一樣指引你 那是你可以安然無恙領受恩典的處所 如果你已迷失方向 如果你已迷失方向 ( 我會留一盞燈 ) 我明白現在的你感到落寞消沉 但我需要你堅強起來 躲在真相背後無助於解決問題 我明白你的痛楚,如果你無法領受恩典 你已迷失了方向 我會留一盞燈 我會留一盞燈 因為....我會留一盞燈 |

Leave a light on "是蘇格蘭歌手湯姆沃克為他的好友所寫的一首歌,當時他的朋友正為戒除毒癮所苦。藉這首歌,湯姆沃克希望這位朋友能盡快從暗處走出來,如果需要協助的話,他會盡力幫忙,就像在遠方的山坡上點一盞燈等他回來。 「寫這首歌,只想讓他明白他並不孤單,我會永遠陪在他身邊。 我所認識的人裡面,包括我在內,生活中都因陷溺於某種型式的癮患所苦,無論是酗酒或暴食等,每個人都有自己跨不過去的坎。我想為家人、朋友寫一首歌,讓他們知道彼此可以放開胸懷暢談這些事情。」 這首歌由湯姆沃克和 Steve Mac 史提夫麥克合寫,史提夫麥克是英國著名的製作人,曾創作西城男孩合唱團的" Flying without wings "、紅髮艾德的" Shape of you "等暢銷曲。 " Leave a light on "於 2017 年 10 月發行後,在英國排行榜上爬升很慢。隔年三月,這首歌在英吉利海峽對岸的法國突然走紅,帶動它在其他歐洲國家的氣勢,包括奧地利、比利時、德國、瑞士、捷克、匈牙利、義大利、荷蘭等都打進到前 10 名,最後在六月時於英國得到最高名次第 7 名,成為湯姆沃克最受歡迎的歌曲。這首歌後來收錄在他 2019 年發行的首張專輯《 What A Time To Be Alive 》。 |
