华南师范大学外文学院英语系04级学生。喜欢英文,喜欢听英文歌曲,一首好的英文歌曲不仅让我学到课文里学不到的知识,更让我体味到歌者的人生。令我陶醉的不仅仅是动人的旋律,找到每首歌的触动点,理解每首歌背后的故事才是我最大的享受。除了听歌还喜欢看看书,听歌让我觉得享受,看书让我觉得充实。
我听之我见:“I will come to you”是一首难得的描写友情的歌曲。这个世界上每个人都在艰难地跋涉,为理想不断执着地追求,在这条黎明与黄昏不断交替的路上,生命始终显得微弱渺小和孤独。而有了朋友,我们的生活才融入了更多的真诚与热爱,从而变得丰腴充实。有了朋友的邂逅簇拥,日子里充满了快乐与温馨,所以我一直笃信友情是一种最值得看重的财富。
Lyrics
I will come to you byHanson Brothers
When you have no light to guide you
And no one to walk beside you
I will come to you
Oh I will come to you
When the night is dark and stormy
You won't have to reach out for me
I will come to you
Oh I will come to you
Sometimes when all your dreams may have seen better days
And you don't know how or why, but you've lost your way
Have no fear when your tears are falling
I will hear your spirit calling
And I swear I'll be there come what may
When you have no light to guide you
And no one to walk beside you
I will come to you
Oh I will come to you
When the night is dark and stormy
You won't have to reach out for me
I will come to you
Oh I will come to you
'Cause even if we can't be together
We'll be friends now and forever
And I swear that I'll be there come what may
When the night is dark and stormy
You won't have to reach out for me
I will come to you
Oh I will come to you
We all need somebody we can turn to
Someone who'll always understand
So if you feel that your soul is dying
And you need the strength to keep trying
I'll reach out and take your hand
When you have no light to guide you
And no one to walk beside you
I will come to you
Oh I will come to you
When the night is dark and stormy
You won't have to reach out for me
I will come to you
Oh I will come to you

中文歌词
来到你身边 汉森合唱团
当你茫然迷失方向,
却无人陪伴你左右,
我就会来到你的身边。
噢,我就会来到你的身边。
当暴风雨夜来临,
无须召唤,
我就会来到你的身边。
噢,我就会来到你的身边。
