囚鸟

机缘巧合,这部传奇经典《歌剧魅影》阔别二十年,与你一起重返这个城市。

本想带你去看的,在我的城市;一如你带我去体验的,在你的城市。憾甚,你没时间。于是,在台风与台风的间隙,一个人,去还这不完整的愿想。

夜色里,细雨中,富丽堂皇的大剧院,高高竖起的蓝底假面,2004~2014~2024,原版~中文~原版,二十年白驹过隙。

如果不是你,我依然不会踏足这高高的音乐殿堂,依然会选择与之一而再再而三的擦肩。如果没有你,我的生命,又会缺失多少丰富的色彩和美妙的音符?!

You are the best thing that ever happened to me。

多么遗憾,我之于你,不是。甚至,拖拽着你入了地狱。

也许,这是我更易共情于魅影的原因之一:彼此一样,都是“囚鸟”。

当Christine唱响Think of Me并技惊四座之际,我想起的,是你: 

I long to take my heart back and be free
I am trying too hard to put you from my mind 
However there will never be a day when I won't think of you:
Think of all the things we've shared and seen
Think about the things which might have been
Think of the things we'll never do

当The Phantom of Opera的主题一而再的奏响,熟悉的节奏激得我鸡皮疙瘩在手臂上肉眼可见。

当All I ask of You分别从他、她、他的口中唱出,两情相悦的幸福和爱而不得的伤痛在心中交替,我想起的,依然是你: 

I love you every waking moment
I need you with me now and always
I want you here beside me to hold me
I long to share with you one love one lifetime
Share each day with you, each night, each morning
Lead me from my solitude
Anywhere you go let me go too
That's all I ask of you

当Christine徘徊父亲坟前祈求安慰指引时,Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again,我却彷佛听到你在烈日青烟、簌簌叶响、阵阵蝉鸣的墓园中低吟:

Too many years
Fighting back tears
Why can't the past just die?

Try to forgive, teach me to live
Give me the strength to try
 
No more silent tears
No more gazing across the wasted years
Help me say goodbye

当The Point of No Return将气氛推向高潮,我的思绪不可避免得飘向了18年前......是毁灭,也是新生,是结束,也是开始:

Pass the point of no return
No backward glances
The games we played till now are at an end
Past all the thought of "if" or "when"
No use resisting
Abandon thought and let the dream descend

What raging fire shall flood the soul?
What rich desire unlock its door?
What sweet seduction lies before us?

Pass the point of no return
The final threshold
What warm unspoken secrets will we learn?
Beyond the point of no return

You have brought me 
To that moment when words run dry
To that moment when speech disappears
Into silence
Silence
 
Pass the point of no return 
No going back now 
Our passion-play has now, at last, begun
Past all thought of right or wrong
 
Say you'll share with me
One love, One lifetime
Lead me, save me from my solitude
Say you want me with you here beside you
Anywhere you go, let me go too
That's all I ask of

一吻之后,终于,痛定思痛的他放手,她解脱......

人去楼空,从此,魅影只是在人们口耳之间辗转的传说......

沧海桑田,最后,爱也只是墓碑前一枝静默的玫瑰......
