巧恰錯配下的精彩

很多年前在飛去三藩市的一程中，機艙內正放映著「回到未來 III」，我架著太陽眼鏡，walkman 裡的卡式錄音帶剛好播著這首歌。

開始時我只斷續地瞄一瞄播著的電影，沒久，忽然的，感覺到正聽著的這首歌，與電影內的畫面、情節竟是如此配合。

那時機艙正關上燈，兩邊的機窗只有一兩扇偶爾開著半邊或微微留下一絲空隙讓九宵外的金箭放入；那部電影一路放著，我正聽著這首歌，一路 rewind 又 rewind；喝著酒。。。。忘了有沒有直至這樣地看完全片，但記得，醒來時，walkman 已沒電。

現在，除了每次一聽到這首歌，或看到那齣電影，即使只是海報一張，都會依然記得這浪漫一剎畫面、難忘這巧恰錯配下的精彩。甚至，「她」會不期然於我思海中浮現；而且，亦已與那段在國外生活的日子的一切，溶為一體的回憶。

不否認，極度感性、浪漫，係我。

Words Get In The Way

I realize you're seeing someone new
I don't believe she knows you like I do
Your tempermental moody side,
The one you always try to hide from me
But I know when you've got something on your mind
You've been trying to tell me for the longest time
And before you break my heart in two
There's something I've been trying to say to you

But the words get in the way
There's so much I want to say
But it's locked deep inside and if you look in my eyes
We might fall in love again
I won't even start to cry
And before we say goodbye
I tried to say I love you, but the words got in the way

Your heart has always been an open door
But baby, I don't even know you any more
And despite the fact it's killing me
I know the time has come to set you free

But the words get in the way
There's so much I want to say
But it's locked deep inside and if you look in my eyes
We might fall in love again
I won't even start to cry
And before we say goodbye
I tried to say I love you, but the words got in the way
I'm trying to say I love you, but the words get in the way
