Fading Like a Flower是瑞典知名雙人組合Roxette(羅克賽)在1991年發行的單曲,這首歌曾攻上美國Billboard Hot 100的第二名,在許多國家的音樂榜也有非常好的排名,和The Look、It Must Have Been Love、Joyride等歌曲都是Roxette早年非常成功的作品。
Roxette有不少歌我還滿喜歡的,像是A Thing About You、Fading Like A Flower、It Must Have Been Love、Listen To Your Heart、Watercolours In The Rain和Excited都是我有收藏的作品。其中,又以這首情感破碎的Fading Like A Flower最觸動我的心。
Fading Like A Flower先以簡單清脆的琴聲開場,再加入Per Gessle扣人心弦的吉他伴奏。歌詞巧妙的融入夕陽、岩石、玫瑰花和大雨,塑造出一種非常淒美動人的景象和意境,就像玫瑰凋謝一樣。

Fading Like a Flower Lyrics
In a time, where the sun descends alone
I ran a long long way from home
To find a heart that's made of stone
I will try
I just need a little time
To get your face right out of my mind
To see the world
Through different eyes
Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
But when we meet it seems I can't let go
Every time you leave the room
I feel I'm fading like a flower
Tell me why?
When I scream there's no reply
When I reach out there's nothing to find
When I sleep I break down and cry
Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
But when we meet it seems I can't let go
Every time you leave the room
I feel I'm fading like a flower
Fading like a rose
Fading like a rose
Beaten by the storm
Talking to myself
Getting washed by the rain
It's such a cold cold town
Fading Like a Flower中文歌詞
每當太陽獨自落下時
我就從我家出發,跑了好長好長的路
去尋找那由岩石形成的心
我嘗試著
只需要再一點點的時間
就可以將你的臉龐從我心底抹去
去看到這個世界
透過不同的眼睛
每當我見到你,我就想要躲起來
但每當兩目相對時,我就不想再讓你走
每當你離開了這房間
我彷彿就像花兒一般地凋謝
告訴我為什麼?
為什麼我吶喊,卻得不到回應?
為什麼我努力伸出了手,但卻又什麼都得不到?
當我入睡,這一切卻又讓我崩潰哭泣
每當我見到你,我就想要躲起來
但每當兩目相對時,我就不想再讓你走
每當你離開了這房間
我彷彿就像花兒一般地凋謝
如玫瑰般凋謝…
如玫瑰般凋謝…
感情風暴讓我精疲力竭
所以我告訴我自己
就讓大雨打在身上吧..
這是個好冷好冷的地方啊…
