Dan Fogelberg　　

以“Longer”一曲享誉全球的Dan Fogelberg，以他轻柔的歌喉、清澈的吉他声及动人的词句使他拥有"民谣诗人"的美称。1951年8月13日生于伊利诺州 (Illinois)的Dan Fogelberg，十四岁开始学习钢琴, 后来又进一步学习吉他和作曲，为了往歌唱圈发展，丹佛格伯毅然放弃伊利诺大学艺术系学士学位，开始他的歌唱事业，移居加州，追随 Van Morrison 到各地参加巡回演唱会。1973年与哥伦比亚唱片公司签约，发行的第一张专辑 "Home Free" 成绩并不理想。随后转加入 Epic 唱片公司，第二张专辑"Souvenirs"于1975年推出后，佳评如潮，不但获得乐评家的赞赏，也获得商业上的成功，得到专辑排行第十七名。Dan Fogelberg挤身进入美国知名作曲家兼歌手的行列。他歌唱生涯在商业上最成功的一张专辑则是于1980年推出的"Phoenix"，获得第三名，并成功打入英国排行，至今仍让人津津乐道的抒情佳作"Longer"并获得亚军好成绩

Same Old Lang Syne
Dan Fogelberg

Met my old lover in the grocery store

我在杂货店遇旧日的恋人

The snow was falling Christmas Eve]

雪花在耶诞节前夕飘零着

I stole behind her in the frozen foods

在冷冻食品区见到她我偷偷地站在她的背后

And I touched her on the sleeve

碰了碰她的衣袖

She didn't recognize the face at first

她起先并没有认出我的面孔来

But then her eyes flew open wide

后来她的眼睛睁得大大的

She went to hug me and she spilled her purse

她走过来抱着我，钱包从她的手中滑落

And we laughed until we cried

我们笑到泪流满面

We took her groceries to the checkout stand

然后我们拿着她的东西去收银台

The food was totalled up and bagged

一起结帐装入袋内

We stood there lost in our embarrassment

我们两站在那儿有点不知所措

As the conversation dragged

就这样有一搭?#93;一搭地谈着

We went to have ourselves a drink or two

于是我们想一起去喝一两杯

But couldn't find an open bar

却找不到一间营业的酒吧

We bought a six-pack at the liquor store

只好在商店买了半打啤酒

And we drank it in her car

在她的车里共饮

We drank a toast to innocence

我们为纯真的岁月干杯

We drank a toast to now

我们为此时此刻干杯

And tried to reach beyond the emptiness

试图排解那份空虚

But neither one knew how

但是却无济于事

She said she'd married her an architect

她说她嫁给一个建筑师

Who kept her warm and safe and dry

能给她温暖但是却很乏味

She would have liked to say she loved the man

她本来想说她爱那个男人

But she didn't like to lie

可是她不想撒谎

I said the years had been a friend to her

我说岁月一直不曾亏待她

And that her eyes were still as blue

她的双眸依旧湛蓝如昔

But in those eyes I wasn't sure if I saw

但在她那眼中我不确信我看到的是

Doubt or gratitude

是疑惑还是感激

She said she saw me in the record stores

她说她在唱片店内见过我

And that I must be doing well

说我一定做的很好

I said the audience was heavenly

我答道 观众都很爱待我

But the traveling was hell

但是循演让我很疲惫.

We drank a toast to innocence

我们为纯真岁月干杯

We drank a toast to now

我们为此时干杯

And tried to reach beyond the emptiness

试图去排解那份空虚

But neither one knew how

但是却无济于事

We drank a toast to innocence

我们为纯真的岁月互敬

We drank a toast to time

我们为时光荏苒干杯

Reliving in our eloquence

我们在侃侃而谈中重温

Another 'auld lang syne'......

美好的往事如歌

The beer was empty and our tongues were tired,

啤酒喝完了，话也说累了

And running out of things to say

我们聊完了所有的话题

She gave a kiss to me as I got out

当我走出车厢时，她给了我一个吻

And I watched her drive away

然后我目送她离去

Just for a moment I was back at school

那一刻我仿佛又回到了校园

And felt that old familiar pain .........

再次感受那挥之不去的痛楚

And as I turned to make my way back home,

当我转身回家时

The snow turned into rain ..............

雪已融化为雨

Over...
