Instead


Instead of feelin' bad, be glad you've got somewhere to go

Instead of feelin' sad, be happy you're not on your own

Instead of feelin' low, get high on everything that you love

Instead of wastin' time, feel good'bout what you're dreamin' of.


Instead of tryin' to win something you never understood

Just play the game you know, eventually you'll love her good

It's silly to pretend that you have something you don't own

Just let her be your woman and you'll be her man:


Instead of feelin' broke, buck up and get yourself in the black

Instead of losin' hope, touch up the things that feel out of whack

Instead of bein' old, be young because you know you are

Instead of feelin' cold, let sunshine into your heart.


Instead of acting crazy chasin' things that make you mad

Keep your heart ahead, it'll lead you back to what you have

With every step you're closer to the place you need to be

It's up to you to let her love you sweetly:


Instead of feelin' bad be glad you've got someone to love

Instead of feelin' sad, be happy there's a god above

Instead of feelin' low, remember you're never on your own

Instead of feelin sad, be happy that she's there at home

She's waitin' for you by the phone

So be glad that she is all your own!


Get happy

She's waitin' for you by the telephone.

So get back home!

今日早读背景乐:

( BGM: Madeleine Peyroux - Instead


 

玛黛琳.蓓荷(Madeleine Peyroux ):堪称21世纪最棒的爵士女声,被誉为爵士第一夫人Billie Holiday的接班人。1973年,生於美国乔治亚,却因为父母离异而随任职法语教师的母亲移居法国巴黎,蓓荷自小承受著法国艺术文化与美国乡村蓝调的双重洗礼,造就她不凡的艺术品味并曾在巴黎街头卖唱,蓓荷1996年发行了第一张个人专辑《爵士天地》(Dreamland),舒缓、清柔的演唱风格,加上她近似爵士第一夫人比莉.哈乐黛(Billie Holiday)的纯情风格,令爵士乐评家为之惊艳。
