| " Last train to London "選自 Electric Light
Orchestra 電光樂團 1979 年發行的第八張錄音室專輯《 Discovery 》，這張專輯中最受歡迎的單曲為"
Don't bring me down
"，是一張銷售超過 200 萬張的白金專輯。 相較於該團靈魂人物 Jeff Lynne 傑夫林恩以往的作品，" Last train to London "風格較為特殊，填上中文歌詞的" 夏天的浪花 "竟十分合拍，完全感覺不到是出自一首西洋歌曲。 |
| Last train
to London Electric Light Orchestra (Jeff Lynne) It was 9:29... 9:29, back street, big city The sun was going down There was music all around It felt so right It was one of those nights One of those nights When you feel the world stop turning You were standing there There was music in the air I should have been away But I knew I had to stay *Last train to London, just heading out Last train to London, just leaving town But I really want tonight to last forever I really want to be with you Let the music play on down the line tonight It was one of those nights One of those nights When you feel the fire burning Everybody was there Everybody to share It was so right There you were on your own Looking like you were the only one around I had to be with you Nothing else that I could do I should have been away But I knew I had to stay (*) Underneath a starry sky Time was still but hours must really have rushed by I didn't realize But love was in your eyes I really should have gone But love went on and on (*) But I really want tonight to last forever I really want to be with you Let the music play on down the line tonight |
倫敦最後列車 電光樂團 時間是九點廿九分 九點廿九分，後街，大都會 日已西沉 到處都聽得到音樂 感覺真好 那是其中的一個夜晚 其中的一夜 當你覺得世界停止運轉 你站在那裡 空氣中充滿了音樂 其實我早該離開 但我明白我非得留下不可 開往倫敦的最後列車已經啟動 開往倫敦的最後列車已離城而去 但我多麼希望今夜成為永恆 我真的想和你在一起 今晚，讓音樂一路播放下去吧！ 那是其中的一個夜晚 其中的一夜 當你感覺到火在燃燒 每個人都在 彼此互相分享 感覺好極了 你獨自一人 看來四周似乎只有你一個人 我得陪伴著你 那是我唯一能做的 其實我早該離開 但我明白我非得留下不可 在星光熠熠的夜空下 時光已靜止，但時刻卻不斷流逝 當時我並未發覺 但愛在你眼中 我真的應該離開的 但愛永遠在 但我多麼希望今夜成為永恆 我真的想和你在一起 今晚，讓音樂一路播放下去吧！ |
