Bruce Springsteen - Secret Garden

第一次聽到這首歌,是在電影征服情海(Jerry Maguire)裡頭,Tom Cruise 跟 Renée Zellweger,第一次出去約會,還有他們復合時,當時的配樂就是這首歌。
能出現在該片導演 Cameron Crowe 電影中的歌曲,必定不是泛泛之作。他曾經為滾石雜誌寫過樂評、拍出過史上最好看的搖滾電影"成名在望",其搖滾品味無庸置疑。看過這部電影的人,對於這首歌還有歌曲出現當時的感人情境,想必都是不可分割的。當男女主角第一次出去約會、經過離異之後的復合,都是電影裡頭最感人的兩個時刻,這首動人的歌曲,自然為電影加分了不少。
歌詞的最後一段,每次聽到,總是有種莫名奇妙的感動,哈哈!
Bruce Springsteen - Secret Garden
She'll let you in her house
If you come knockin' late at night
She'll let you in her mouth if the
Words you say are right
If you pay the price
She'll let you deep inside
But there's a secret garden she hides
She'll let you in her car
To go drivin' round
She'll let you into the parts of herself
That'll bring you down
She'll let you in her heart
If you got a hammer and a vise
But into her secret garden, don't think twice
You've gone a million miles
How far'd you get to that place where
You can't remember and you can't forget
She'll lead you down a path
There'll be tenderness in the air
She'll let you come just far enough
So you know she's really there
She'll look at you and smile
And her eyes will say
She's got a secret garden
Where everything you want
Where everything you need
Will always stay a million miles away.
當女主角第一次跟男主角出去約會時,女主角快要哭的時候,母親對他這樣說,"Don't cry at the beginning of a date. Cry at the end, like I do.",非常有趣,電影裡頭讓我印象最深刻的台詞。
當男主角在他生命最成功、最快樂的時刻,卻想起了沒有"那個她",後來當他去找女主角時這樣說,"I love you. You... complete me.",或許愛情就是這樣吧。
