KOIT開始全天放著聖誕音樂,舊金山的聖誕節,what a lovely place to be。
有人可能要大搖其頭不同意,或著撇撇嘴翻翻白眼。
所以我也沒辦法說,
It’s the closest thing to heaven. How I wish that you were here.
於是又變得很矛盾且彆扭奇怪了。
Christmas in San Francisco
What a lovely place to be
Seeing the hills being all lit up
Like a diamond Christmas tree
Hearing children singing carols
People come from everywhere
To sing along with the children
Standing all around Union Square
Christmas in San Francisco
Looking like some fairy land
People with gifts in the crispy air
Giving old Saint Nick a hand
Let’s take a peek in Chinatown
Eating lychee nuts and barbecued boar
What can you say about the Golden Gate
That hasn’t been said before
Christmas in San Francisco
There is no place quite so dear
It’s the closest thing to heaven
How I wish that you were here.
What can you say about the Golden Gate
That hasn’t been said before
Christmas in San Francisco
There is no place quite so dear
It’s the closest thing to heaven
How I wish that you were here.
真感動看到這個歌詞
我去年剛從舊金山畢業回台灣
KOIT陪了我三年
每年聖誕節都會聽到這首很有氣氛的歌
這算是我最愛的歌之ㄧ吧 : )
就連現在在台灣工作
我還是天天從網路聽著KOIT
無意間看到你的網誌 還有我找了許久的歌詞
真的很感動
你能住在舊金山 真幸福 ^_^
祝你聖誕快樂喔

I LOVE San Francisco, though I don’t live in SF; instead I live in the South Bay.
I fell in love with this song the first time I heard it. Vic Damone’s voice is so subtle and strong and warm, and he sings the beauty of this city and how wonderful it is to spend Christmas in this beautiful city.
Pity that the one I adore doesn’t adore SF like I do and doesn’t adore me that much either…
I agree this IS the best song for San Franciscan every Xmas season!
Try Vic Damone’s interpretation. It’s even better.
I love San Francisco! I mean it truly is a beautiful city.
My town.
God Bless and Happy Holidays!
