Listen to songs and learn English - One day one day

Weida "Gemini Perspective"

The creation of songs is generally regarded as a mode of performing arts, a kind of leisure and entertainment for the public!

Personally, I think that songs are not just performance arts or entertainment, and most songs are works with multi-layered cultural connotations. Songs have both poetic charm and touching rhythms, which express the author's views and emotions, and some lyrics will have a complete story that reflects the values and phenomena of contemporary society. Because of such a rich connotation, listening to and singing nostalgic English songs is the most suitable tool for me to learn about the culture of Western countries and learn their language.

This column "Appreciation of Good Songs, Listening to Songs to Learn English" hopes to share nostalgic English old songs, so that friends who want to improve their English skills can have an easier channel to learn English. By sharing the author's inspiration when writing the song and the background of the time at that time, this is equivalent to providing a "context" for learning English, so as to improve English thinking> improve flexible understanding of English> and improve English expression skills.

Most of the nostalgic English songs shared in "Gemini Perspective" have a slower pace and are easy to master; And there is also a part of the story, the words are concise and beautiful, and the grammar is correct. It is well worth using as a reference for learning English. At the back of each song, learning points are also integrated, and some noteworthy points are given to the friends to wake up.

John Rowles is a New Zealand singer-songwriter born in 1947 who was popular in New Zealand and Australia from the late '60s to the early '80s, and regularly performed in the US and Europe.

Popular songs in Western countries, songs with love as the theme are never absent; Whether it is lingering, romantic, or a song that describes a broken love or a change of heart, it will always resonate with some listeners and reach a certain popularity. Without exception, this is a lovelorn love song, the singer's lover is gone, leaving only good memories; The singer hopes that "one day" will be able to find his lover back and continue the relationship.

In the Western English-language pop music industry, most of them are British or American singers, and New Zealand singers are still relatively rare; John Rowles is one of the best. Now let's enjoy John Rowles' "One Day Someday".

One day 总有一天 --- by John Rowles

歌词：One day 总有一天

I close my eyes and I see you now.

I close my eyes, and I see you now.

The way once in a while (1) you smile a tender smile for me.

Occasionally the way you smile (the way) you smile is a gentle smile at me.

But now the smile has gone I’m alone and I lie here on my own just to wishing for the memories that I have known.

But now the smile is gone, and I'm alone, and I'm lying here by myself, just hoping for the memories I know.

One day I must find you again, my love.

One day I have to find you again, my love.

One day guess I’ll hang on till then, my love.

Someday, guess I'll hold on until then, my love.

May be tomorrow there’ll be an end to all this sorrow.

Maybe tomorrow there will be an end to all this sadness.

I’ll find my way one day.

Someday I will find my way.

And with this hand I would touch your face.

And with this hand, I will touch your face.

And when you used to cry in these two arms (2), you’d (3) lie with me.

And when you used to cry in this embrace, you would lie with me.

But now I have to face empty years, all the worries, all the fears, with a broken heart, let’s trying to stop the tears.

But now I have to face the empty years, all the worries, all the fears, with a broken heart, let's try to stop this tear.

One day I must find you again, my love.

One day I have to find you again, my love.

One day guess I’ll hang on till then, my love.

Someday, guess I'll hold on until then, my love.

May be tomorrow there’ll be an end to all this sorrow.

Maybe tomorrow there will be an end to all this sadness.

I’ll find my way one day.

Someday I will find my way.

One day!

Someday!

学习点 Learning Points：

1. Once in a while --- 这个词组很常用，字面的意思“久不久一次 = 偶尔”；同义词是“Occasionally”。
2. In xxx arms --- literally means "in the arms of xxx", which is literally translated as "in the arms of xxx".
3. You’d --- 是“You would”的口语版简写，之所以是“Would 而不是 Had”是因为后面的动词“Lie”是现在式，否则就会是过去分词了。
