這首A Light in the Dark(亂譯: 暗夜曙光)
是百老匯音樂劇《趨於平常》(Next to Normal)的歌曲
(亦譯做《不太正常又何妨》)
網路上的歌詞都是現場演唱的版本
而網頁下方的歌詞是以原聲帶為主
我有做了一點修改
知道這首歌是個意外哪
我對英美音樂劇一直很沒有愛
是因為Mark Seibert的個人專輯裡面有收錄這首
基於好奇我就去找來聽聽
這首還真是越聽越好聽哪!!
現在對這部音樂劇興致濃厚
改天多找幾首歌來聽聽
說不定到時候也會買這部音樂劇的原聲帶起來收藏呢!
《趨於平常》於2009年得到東尼獎最佳音樂劇女演員,最佳音樂,最佳配樂等獎項

A Light in the Dark
DAN
One light shines in the drive
One single sign that our house is alive
Our house, our own
So why do I live there alone
Tell me why I wait through the night
Why do I leave on the light
You know, I know
Our house was a home long ago
Take this chance cause it may be our last
To be free, to let go of the past
And to try to be husband and wife
To let love never die, or to just live our life
Take my hand and let me take your heart
Keep you far from what keeps us apart
Let us start with a light in the dark
Night falls I stare at the walls
DIANA
I stare at these walls
DAN
I wake and wander the halls
DIANA
I get lost in these halls
DAN
And I ache to the bone
DIANA
It's like nothing I've known
BOTH
I can't get through this alone
DAN
Take this chance and we'll make a new start
Somewhere far from what keeps us apart
And I swear that somewhere in the night
There's a light, a light in the dark
