Butterfly Kisses

前言:

字面上理解"Butterfly Kisses"的意思可能是蝴蝶飞过来亲吻,其实是指当大人和小孩以脸部亲昵地靠在一起时,其中一人的眼睫毛,随着眼睛的眨动,轻轻的刷拂在另外一人的脸颊上,或者是两个人额头面对面的凑在一起,双方的睫毛互相刷拂,那种感觉,就好像是轻柔的蝴蝶在"亲吻"着你(很有feeling吧)~

这首歌的原唱是美国抒情乡村歌手Bob Carlisle,在他女儿十六岁的生日前夕,看着女儿渐渐长大成人,不久就要远走高飞,感慨万千而写下了这首歌,这首歌把一个父亲对女儿的爱写得感人至极!

据说Bob Carlisle原本并没有想要发表,只想把歌曲作为送给女儿的礼物,但是在好友们的鼓励之下,才决定录制唱片。而据《旧金山纪事》报曾报导,有边开车边听此歌的听众把车子停到路边,泣不成声…这首歌灌成唱片后,在排行榜上扶摇直上,获得了极好的成绩,这首歌同时获得了1998年第四十届格莱美最佳乡村歌曲奖,现在已经成为美国人婚礼上必不可少的经典歌曲~

There's two things I know for sure
She was sent here from Heaven
And she's daddy's little girl
As I drop to my knees by her bed at night
She talks to Jesus and I close my eyes
And I thank God for all of the joy in my life
Oh but most of all

For butterlfy kisses after bedtime prayer
Stickin little white flowers all up in her hair
Walk beside the pony dady
It's my first ride
I know the cake looks funny daddy
But i sure tried
Oh with all that I've done wrong
I must have done something right
To deseve a hug every morning
And butterfly kisses at night

Sweet 16 today
She's looking like her mama
A little more every day
One part woman
The other part girl
To perfume and make up
From ribbons and curls
Trying her wings out in a great big world
But I remember

Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer
Sticking little white flowers all up in her hair
You know how much I love you dady
But if you don't mind
I'm only gonna kiss you on the check this time
Oh with all that I've done wrong
I muct have done something right
To deserve her love every morning
And butterfly kisses at night

All the precious time
Like the wind the years go by
Precious Butterfly
Spread your wings and fly

She'll change her name today
She'll make a promise and I'll give her away
Standing in the bride room just staring at her
She asked me what I'm thinking
And I said I'm not sure
I just feel like I'm loosing my baby girl
And she leaned over

And gave me butterfly kisses with her mama there
Sticking little white flowers all up in her hair
Walk me down the isle daddy
It's just about time
Does my wedding gown look pretty daddy?
Daddy don't cry
Oh with all that I've done wrong
I must have done something right
To deserve her love every morning and butterfly kisses
I couldn't ask God for more than this is what love is
I know I've got to let her go but I'll always remember
Every hug in the morning and butterly kisses
