Radka Toneff---The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress

　　早期的数码录音(1986年)已能将托妮芙绝美歌声中的微微颤抖细细捕捉下来，叫人感受到隐藏其中的那份悲情气质。忠告您：在心情不佳时请将此歌跳过，暂勿聆听。　
这张唱片在海外雅皮士中风行已久，当年的lp大碟几乎被卖疯。香港某刊在评论这张唱片时风趣地说："此碟一播，成村的人都话要买!"。可见好端端的人们都抢着欣赏其中凄美，争着体味那悲悲切切、愁肠寸断的感觉。你听，托妮芙的歌声是否好象来自天空的某一处?那透明晶莹的钢琴伴奏是否象涧中溪流般沁人心脾?好了，不妨碍你了，闭上眼慢慢醉去吧!

 

 

  Radka Toneff-The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress


Music: Jimmy Webb
Lyrics: Jimmy Webb

See her how she flies
Golden sails across the sky
Close enough to touch
But careful if you try
Though she looks as warm as gold
The moon's a harsh mistress
The moon can be so cold

Once the sun did shine
Lord it felt so fine
The moon a phantom rose
Through the mountains and the pines
And then the darkness fell
The moon's a harsh mistress
It's hard to love her well

I fell out of his eyes
I fell out of his heart
I fell down on my face
I tripped and missed my stars
I fell and I fell alone
The moon's a harsh mistress
The sky is made of stone

The moon's a harsh mistress
She's hard to call your own
