水晶の舟
ザ・ドアーズのオリジナル・メンバーの一人だったキーボード・プレイヤー、レイ・マンザレク氏の訃報に接して。彼らのデビュー・アルバム『ハートに火をつけて』から「水晶の舟」の歌詞を引用しておきます。
"The Crystal Ship"
Before you slip into unconciousness
I'd like to have another kiss
Another flashing chance at bliss,
another kiss, another kiss
The days are bright and filled with pain
Enclose me in your gentle rain
The time you rambled still and said we'll meet again,
we'll meet again
Oh, tell me where your freedom lies
The streets are fields that never die
Deliver me from reasons why you'd rather cry,
I'd rather fly
The crystal ship is being filled
A thousand girls a thousand thrills a million ways
to spend your time
When we get back I'll trap a ride
(Words and Music by The Doors)
