a shoulder to cry on
基本信息
歌曲:《A Shoulder to Cry On 》
歌手:汤米 佩吉(Tommy Page)
专辑:《Tommy Page》
Life is full of lots of up and downsAnd the distance feels further
When you''re headed for the ground
And there is nothing more painful
Then to let your feelings take you down
It''s so hard to know the way you feel inside
When there''s many thoughts and feelings that you hide
But you might feel better
If you let me walk with you by your side
And when you need a shoulder to cry on
When you need a friend to rely on
When the whole world is gone
You won''t be alone, cause I''ll be there
I''ll be your shoulder to cry on
I''ll be there
I''ll be a friend to rely on
When the whole world is gone
You won''t be alone, cause I''ll be there
All of the times when everything is wrong
And you''re feeling like there''s no use going on
You can''t give it up
I hope you work it out and carry on
Side by side with you till the end
I''ll alway be the one to firmly hold your hand
No matter what is said or done
Our love will always continue on
Everyone needs a shoulder to cry on
Everyone needs a friend to rely on
When the whole world is gone
You won''t be alone cause I''ll be there
I''ll be your shoulder to cry on
I''ll be there
I''ll be the one you rely on
When the whole world''s gone
You won''t be alone cause I''ll be there
And when the whole world is gone
You''ll always have my shoulder to cry on....

歌曲赏析
这首歌比我的年纪还大,终于让我有幸在二十多年后的今天听到了它。节奏流畅、声线清晰、歌词细腻,即使放在现在也必然会在排行榜的位列前茅。tommy一直坚持自己创作自己演唱的风格,这支歌的MV里面,tommy年轻帅气的脸映衬在镜头下面,双手在钢琴上跳跃。老旧的摄影技术也不能磨灭这个当初从美国风靡到了亚洲的偶像的风采。
如今的tommy退去偶像光环,成为了其伯乐华纳公司的my制作人一名,但这首歌已永远雕刻下了1988年青涩袭人的tommy。
