(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda)
There's a port on a western bay
And it serves a hundred ships a day
Lonely sailors pass the time away
And talk about their homes
And there's a girl in this harbor town
And she works layin' whiskey down
"They say "Brandy, fetch another round
She serves them whiskey and wine
(The sailors say "Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl
(What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl"
"Yeah your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea"
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)
Brandy wears a braided chain
Made of finest silver from the North of Spain
A locket that bears the name
Of the man that Brandy loves
He came on a summer's day
Bringin' gifts from far away
But he made it clear he couldn't stay
No harbor was his home
(The sailor said "Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl
(What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl"
"But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea"
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)
Yeah, Brandy used to watch his eyes
When he told his sailor stories
She could feel the ocean foam rise
She saw its ragin' glory
But he had always told the truth, lord, he was an honest man
And Brandy does her best to understand
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)
At night when the bars close down
Brandy walks through a silent town
And loves a man who's not around
She still can hear him say
(She hears him say " Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl
(What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl"
"But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea"
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)
(Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl"
FADE
(What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl"
"But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea"
מאז שנועה השמיעה לי אותו לקראת סוף החורף השנה, התאהבתי בשיר הזה. אני מזדהה עם ברנדי כל כך... גם לי יש משכית שנושאת את השם של האדם שאני אוהבת. אני אולי לא עונדת אותה יותר, אבל היא קיימת. מבחינות רבות אני דומה לברנדי. ככה זה בחיים אני מניחה...
אני כל כך אוהבת את השיר הזה, למרות שהוא גורם לי להיות כל כך עצובה... ולכן החלטתי לשים אותו כאן לתקופת מה (לא כי הוא עושה אותי עצובה, כי אני אוהבת אותו).
בתקווה לעוד חלומות - והפעם אולי הם ייתנו לי להבין כמה דברים סוף כל סוף ולא רק חצאי אמיתות...
המילה האהובה עלי לפוסט הזה היא: ברנדי.
שלכם,
