≮蔷薇花开≯

By Def Leppard Album-X

You held my hand and then you slipped away

And I may never see your face again

So tell me how do to fill the emptiness inside

Without love, what is life?

And anyone who knew us both can see

We always were the better part of me

I never wanted to be this free

All this pain, does it go away?

Then every time I turn around

And you're nowhere to be found

I know I got a long, long way to go

Before I can say goodbye to you

Oh, I got a long, long way to go

Before I can say goodbye to all I ever knew

To you, to you

From memory, there is no hiding place

Turn on the TV and I see you there

In every crowd there's always someone with your face

Everywhere, trying not to care

Then every time I turn around

And you're nowhere to be found

I know I got a long, long way to go

Before I can say goodbye to you

Oh, I got a long, long way to go

Before I can say goodbye to all I ever knew

To you, I wish you everythin'

And all the best that life can bring

I only hope you think of me sometimes, oh

And even though I feel the pain

I know that I will love again

The time will come, oh, and I'll move on

I got a long, long way to go

Before I can say goodbye to you

Oh, I got a long, long way to go, got a long way to go

Before I can say goodbye, before I say goodbye

To all I ever knew, to all I ever knew

I got a long, I got a long, long way to go, long way to go

Before I can say, before I say, goodbye to you

Say goodbye, say goodbye

Oh, I got a long, long way to go

Before I can say goodbye to all I ever knew

也许英国的谢菲尔德除了以重工业闻名于世之外，另一件能让居民引以为自豪的是出产了当今世界上最流行的重金属乐队-Def.Leppard。如果仅以唱片的销量计算，Def.Leppard10年中的专辑唱片共出售2800万张。这一骄人的记录不仅把那些著名的摇滚乐队如“枪炮玫瑰”，“U2”，“REM”甩在后头，更使他们和IRON MAIDEN一起座上了“英国新浪潮重金属”流派领导者的王座。

DEF LEPPARD是一支典型的流行重金属乐队〔乐评语〕，流畅的旋律和优美的和声是乐队的特征之一，这首Long long way to go，被称为史上最经典摇滚曲之一。
