美國歌手〔理查卡本特〕feat.英國歌姬〔達斯蒂.史賓菲爾德〕──抒情佳作──〔Something In Your Eyes〕
(richard carpenter / p. phillips oland)
There was a certain face
That filled a thousand nights
With all the sweetest dreams
And promises of paradise
But that face was gone
When the dawn would come and steal you
Yet, I still could feel you
Waiting just a kiss away
Id surely know your face
Your love would cast a spell
Id recognise each curve and line of you,
I knew it well
Now at last youre here and I can tell
Something in your eyes I see
Is all I ever wanted
And something in your smile for me
Is calling out my name
Your eyes, it seems
Are mirrors of my dreams
In ways I cant explain.
And my heart will never be the same
We never said a word
As if wed always known
But through the bittersweet of waiting
We were not alone
Now were close enough
For the touch of love to find us
Fantasies designed us
But they never really could
Begin to measure you
No pictures ever do
And as I watch you framed in sunlight
In a sky of blue
I know what my lifes been leading to
Something in your eyes I see
Is all I ever wanted
And something in your smile for me
Is calling out my name
Your eyes, it seems
Are mirrors of my dreams
In ways I cant explain.
And my heart will never be the same
Something in your eyes I see
Is all Ive ever wanted
And something in your smile for me
Is calling out my name
Your eyes, it seems
Are mirrors of my dreams
In ways I cant explain.
And my heart will never be the same
And my heart will never be the same
Something in your eyes

木匠(The Carpenter)是70年代著名的兄妹雙人組
1983年 妹妹凱倫(Karen Carpenter,1950-1983)因厭食症去世 得年33歲
1987年秋天 41歲的哥哥理查(Richard Carpenter,1946-)推出自製的首張個人專輯〔Time/時間〕
邀來狄昂華薇克(Dionne Warwick) 達斯蒂.史賓菲爾德(Dusty Springfied)兩位大牌助陣
首支單曲是48歲達斯蒂演唱的〔Something In Your Eyes〕
這首旋律優美的抒情曲是理查的創作
在達斯蒂沙啞的迷人嗓音緩緩演繹下流露著一抹舒緩的浪漫風情
歌曲雖然動聽 可惜並沒打進美國單曲榜 只拿到成人抒情榜#12
英國則是#84
不過卻很合亞洲人的口味
