「經典老爺車」確實是一部非常經典的電影,表面敘述著一位看似頑固的老頭的人生的最後階段,
經由老頭帶出家庭和非家庭的定義和真實性。
這首電影主題曲的詞曲道出主角和他的老爺車其實是如此平凡,是那個時代的經典代表性人物,
卻也不平凡的在生命中寫下不同於同一時代其他人的故事。
每次我聽到這首歌時都紅了眼眶。
Gran Torino
by Jamie Cullum
[*Sung By Jamie Cullum & Clint Eastwood*]
So tenderly your story is
nothing more than what you see
or what you've done or will become
standing strong do you belong
in your skin; just wondering
gentle now the tender breeze blows
whispers through my Gran Torino
whistling another tired song
engine humms and bitter dreams grow
heart locked in a Gran Torino
it beats a lonely rhythm all night long
it beats a lonely rhythm all night long
it beats a lonely rhythm all night long
[*sung by Jamie Cullum*]
Realign all the stars above my head
Warning signs travel far
I drink instead on my own Oh! how I've known
the battle scars and worn out beds
gentle now a tender breeze blows
whispers through a Gran Torino
whistling another tired song
engines humm and bitter dreams grow
heart locked in a Gran Torino
it beats a lonely rhythm all night long
these streets are old they shine
with the things I've known
and breaks through the trees
their sparkling
your world is nothing more than all the tiny things you've left behind
So tenderly your story is
nothing more than what you see
or what you've done or will become
standing strong do you belong
in your skin; just wondering
gentle now a tender breeze blows
whispers through the Gran Torino
whistling another tired song
engines humm and bitter dreams grow
a heart locked in a Gran Torino
it beats a lonely rhythm all night long
may I be so bold and stay
I need someone to hold
that shudders my skin
their sparkling
your world is nothing more than all the tiny things you've left behind
so realign all the stars above my head
warning signs travel far
i drink instead on my own oh how ive known
the battle scars and worn out beds
gentle now a tender breeze blows
whispers through the Gran Torino
whistling another tired song
engines humm and better dreams grow
heart locked in a Gran Torino
it beats a lonely rhythm all night long
it beats a lonely rhythm all night long
it beats a lonely rhythm all night long
