I've heard my favorite song maybe a thousand times. 我最喜欢的那首歌,我可能已经听过上千遍了。

In the car. 在车里听。

While cooking, while answering emails. 做饭时听,回邮件时也听。

Last night, I tried something. 昨晚,我试了点不一样的。

I lay down on the floor, 我躺在地板上,

put on my headphones, and closed my eyes. 戴上耳机,闭上眼睛。

I did nothing else. 什么别的事都没做。

I just listened. 就只是听着。

It was a different song. 它听起来完全像另一首歌了。

In the second verse, there's a cello. 在第二段主歌里,有一把大提琴。

A low, sad line, moving under the voice. 一段低沉、忧伤的旋律,在人声之下流淌。

I had never heard it before. 我以前竟然从来没听出来过。

Ten years, a thousand plays, 十年了,听了一千次,

and it was there the whole time, waiting. 它一直都在那里,默默等着。

And the singer takes a breath before the last chorus. 在最后一段副歌之前,歌手还吸了一口气。

You can hear that she's a person, in a room. 你能真切地感受到,那是一个活生生的人,正坐在房间里。

I felt a little guilty. 我突然觉得有点内疚。

I'd said I loved this song. 我口口声声说自己喜欢这首歌,

But I'd never once given it my full attention. 却从来没有哪怕一次,全身心地去听过它。

How many things do I love like that? 我到底还这样“爱”着多少东西呢?

It was four minutes. 也就短短四分钟,

I heard it for the first time. 我却好像是第一次真正听懂了它。
