Miss Waiting

Coldplay / Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends
track 9 Strawberry Swing


午後的遊樂場，放肆的陽光無所遁形，曬得木板溫熱、烤得鐵鍊燙手。從前夏天回外婆家，總會到附近的鞦韆盪一盪，記得那樹梢被照耀得透亮的葉，也記得被拋到空中自在的感覺。我的額頭應該滴著汗水吧？臉頰應該紅得發燙吧？但這些我都不記得了，只憶起微風穿過頭髮、攀過耳際的輕撫。想念那種炎熱中自然的微涼，而Strawberry Swing恰好流洩著這樣適切的溫度。


They were sitting
They were sitting on the strawberry swing
Every moment was so precious

They were sitting 
They were talking under strawberry swing
Everybody was for fighting
Wouldn't want to waste a thing

Cold, cold water bring me round
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Cold, cold water what you say?
When it's such, it's such a perfect day
Such a perfect day

I remember we were walking up to strawberry swing
I can't wait until the morning
Wouldn't want to change a thing

People moving all the time
Inside a perfectly straight line
Don't you wanna just curve away?
When it's such, it's such a perfect day
It's such a perfect day

Now the sky could be blue I don't mind
Without you it's a waste of time
Could be blue I don't mind
Without you it's a waste of time
Now the sky could be blue could be grey
Without you I'm just miles away
Oh the sky could be blue I don't mind
Without you it's a waste of time

迷幻的吉他醞釀著一股非洲風情，如籠罩大地的橙色光芒，如干草的香氣。
Chris Martin的歌聲也微微發燙著，但那不是酷暑的燥熱，而是土地厚實的溫暖。
鞦韆越盪越高，雙腳劃過搔人的小草，風迎面撩起飄揚的髮絲。
鞦韆越盪越遠，看似要衝破天空的屋頂，其實是投入蔚藍的懷抱。
閉著眼睛也笑著，扶搖直上攫那短暫的飛翔，墜落而下載著快樂的重量。
