Sky
Beyond Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I get tired of life,
What a world I'm living in,
Now I've got it all,
I've had enough, I'm giving in

The sun is shining
Melting the clouds away
Got me some Blue Sky Action
I'm breathing today
I know I'm burning
This is my final day
I'm gonna to go out smiling
A king for a day

A king for a day
A king for a day

Stuck in this toxic town
It really takes my breath away
It's either leave or drown
I'm on a Blue Sky getaway

The sun is shining
Melting the clouds away
Got me some Blue Sky Action
I'm breathing today
I know I'm burning
This is my final day
I'm gonna to go out smiling
A king for a day

A king for a day
A king for a day

The sun is shining
Melting the clouds away
Got me some Blue Sky Action
I'm breathing today
I know I'm burning
This is my final day
I'm gonna go out smiling
A king for a day





A king for a day
A king for a day

海闊天空~獻給那些只為了爭取最真實自由的人們!

Beyond (Band)《海闊天空》   詞曲:黃家駒

今天我 寒夜裡看雪飄過
懷著冷卻了的心窩漂遠方
風雨裏追趕
霧裡分不清影蹤
天空海闊你與我
可會變(誰沒在變)

多少次 迎著冷眼與嘲笑
從沒有放棄過心中的理想
一剎那恍惚
若有所失的感覺
不知不覺已變淡
心裡愛(誰明白我)

原諒我這一生不羈放縱愛自由
也會怕有一天會跌倒
背棄了理想 誰人都可以
那會怕有一天只你共我

仍然自由自我
永遠高唱我歌走遍千里

原諒我這一生不羈放縱愛自由
也會怕有一天會跌倒
背棄了理想 誰人都可以
那會怕有一天只你共我

背棄了理想 誰人都可以
那會怕有一天只你共我

原諒我這一生不羈放縱愛自由
也會怕有一天會跌倒
背棄了理想 誰人都可以
那會怕有一天只你共我

1990年那年,一首大地,讓我開始聽BEYOND。再來的光輝歲月讓我無限的感動。那時在台灣舉辦演唱會沒錢去,還是沒錢的學生。
當下就開始存零用錢,總有一天BEYOND還是會來台灣開演唱會的。
1992發行的繼續革命。還拜託去香港玩的親戚一定要幫忙買回。歌曲中的長城,農民等等歌曲。BEYOND與劉卓輝又一次給予我震撼。
1993年的樂與怒,我是憤怒與海闊天空,多變金屬與本土情懷勵志的曲風。讓我每天都在聽這張專輯。非常期待黃家駒說過要來台發國語專輯跟演唱會。
就開始存錢,零用錢還有每天在學校的早,午餐錢,兩餐都沒吃,肚子叫的聲音還被隔壁的女同學笑。
1993年一個國中生存了快2萬吧。我一定要坐在第一排。我是這樣告訴我自己。
1993六月夢沒了,不管將來會如何。也不會在聽到BEYOND的演唱會了。
2萬都拿去買所有BEYOND的所有專輯,紀念品,衣服書籍。
現在2018了,我也有兩個小孩了。等他們超過十歲懂事點,我要把BEYOND的專輯紀念品吉他.等等介紹給他們。告訴他們老爸當年有多瘋狂一個搖滾樂團。
為什麼喜歡他們的音樂,和他們的音樂會如此的鼓動人心,讓人聽到 不再猶豫的繼續向前。

家駒,祝您在天上 快樂。

我是一个大陆人。


小时候的男友说,除了BEYOND以外没有乐队,除了黄家驹以外没有歌手,在他心中,仿佛只有黄家驹英武有力的歌声才能张扬一个男儿的形象。二十年以后,到了今天,我才能理解其中的含义。


从前一直熟悉的旋律,几乎毫不在意,直到香港占中,香港的上空响起了《海阔天空》的高歌,我才把BEYOND的长城、大地、海阔天空、光辉岁月全都听了一遍,很意外地震撼了一番。在他身上我不但看到了年轻人的热血,更看到了历史中君子圣人的血性和挚诚,一个桀骜不驯、永不言败的大丈夫。如果一首歌内容苍白,曲调庸俗,很快就被人遗忘。如果歌的内容是一首诗,则千古流芳。BEYOND的歌是一首首的诗,她是一种理想,一种执着的追求,奔腾释放着内心的呐喊,誓要冲出牢笼。BEYOND不能被称为流行音乐,它有一种永恒的光芒,不会随时光消逝。BEYOND的歌,充满了真理、理性、热血、激情,饱满了信心、盼望和爱。他使一切空洞的流行音乐都骤然失色。他像一道闪电,划过颤抖的、懦弱的中国大地,那黑暗的夜空,使看到他的人,都为之一惊。


今天没有一个乐队组合,再有BEYOND的精神,饱含理想和热情,对受压迫者有着深深同情和怜悯,对自由有着饱含热血的真挚追求。今天的乐队和歌手,大多数附庸风雅,缺乏一个诗人的灵魂,除了歌颂爱情,就是无病呻吟,没有普世的关怀,没有对自由的向往,像一只禁锢在笼中的鸟,只顾自我安慰的吟唱和翻唱。BEYOND的歌,能打破铁笼的枷锁,勇敢冲向自由的天空,大声呼唤,使沉睡的世人猛人觉醒。



@JL-rs5uu

人這一輩子有兩件事不能嘲笑 一是出身 二是夢想 腳下的心中有大地 抬頭就是海闊天空
有一種境界叫海闊天空,
有一種抉擇叫不再猶豫,
有一種嚮往叫再見理想,
有一種懷念叫舊日足跡,
有一種榮耀叫光輝歲月,
有一種鬱悶叫灰色軌跡,
有一種母愛叫真的愛你
有一種信仰叫beyond!
加油 2024年 是我轉變的開始

今天我, 寒夜里看雪飘过

怀着冷却了的心窝漂远方

风雨里追赶, 雾里分不清影踪

天空海阔你与我

可会变(谁没在变)

多少次, 迎着冷眼与嘲笑

从没有放弃过心中的理想

一刹那恍惚, 若有所失的感觉

不知不觉已变淡

心里爱(谁明白我)

原谅我这一生不羁放纵爱自由

也会怕有一天会跌倒

背弃了理想 ,谁人都可以

哪会怕有一天只你共我

今天我 ,寒夜里看雪飘过

怀着冷却了的心窝漂远方

风雨里追赶, 雾里分不清影踪

天空海阔你与我

可会变(谁没在变)

原谅我这一生不羁放纵爱自由

也会怕有一天会跌倒

背弃了理想 ,谁人都可以

哪会怕有一天只你共我

仍然自由自我 ,永远高唱我歌

走遍千里,原谅我这一生不羁放纵爱自由

也会怕有一天会跌倒

背弃了理想 ,谁人都可以

哪会怕有一天只你共我

背弃了理想 谁人都可以

哪会怕有一天只你共我

原谅我这一生不羁放纵爱自由

也会怕有一天会跌倒

背弃了理想 谁人都可以

哪会怕有一天只你共我
