The Call from Narnia: The Call - Regina Skeptor

從一種感覺開始, 到一個希望, 到一種思想, 變成一種呼召。那種感覺到底是怎樣的? 

Regina Spektor 的 The Call是我一直很喜歡的作品, 是The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian的片尾曲, 非常貼切的歌詞。劇情說到在重回異世界narnia作王的四兄妹在narnia回復和平之後最後還是需要離開, 回到自己原來的世界。早前說過有關電影電視原聲帶的歌曲, 有些歌曲值得抽離劇情細聽, 但這一首, 要配合劇情才能欣賞歌曲想表達的情緒。歌詞寫得好, 三言兩言, 猶如畫龍點睛。

四兄妹所以再次回到narnia, 是卡斯柏王子用號角把他們召回來拯救他和那失落了的國度, 因此the call 對故事很重要。

不過, 沒有narnia, 誰要召喚我們? 召喚我們去那裡? 

我還是搞不懂, 呼召是怎麼一回事。須得先敏感自己內心微小的聲音, 再讓那隨時被外面世界洪流淹沒的微弱聲音慢慢轉化成一種意念, 最後才得以成為一種有如 'battle cry'一樣不可逃避的召命。

我期待它的出現。

The Call 
Songwriters: Spektor, Regina;

It started out as a feeling
Which then grew into a hope
Which then turned into a quiet thought
Which then turned into a quiet word

And then that word grew louder and louder
'Til it was a battle cry

I'll come back
When you call me
No need to say goodbye

Just because every thing's changing
Doesn't mean it's never been this way before
All you can do is try to know
Who your friends are as you head off to the war

Pick a star on the dark horizon
And follow the light

You'll come back
When it's over
No need to say goodbye

You'll come back
When it's over
No need to say goodbye

Now, we're back to the beginning
It's just a feeling and no one knows yet
But just because they can't feel it too
Doesn't mean that you have to forget

Let your memories grow stronger and stronger
'Til they're before your eyes

You'll come back
When they call you
No need to say goodbye

You'll come back
When they call you
No need to say goodbye
