曾經(jīng)Sade（莎黛）也是歐美樂壇如日中天的天后級歌手，然而她也曾一度淡出樂壇長達(dá)八年之久，八年的時間足夠讓人們忘卻曾經(jīng)這位靈魂天后的存在。2000年，Sade回歸，一張《Lover's Rock》再次奪得格萊美最佳流行大碟的稱號。所以，實力就是實力，沉寂再久，歸來同樣傲視樂壇眾多后輩。在這張專輯中Sade更多關(guān)注了母愛等溫情話題，這首The Sweetest Gift就是唱給她女兒的歌，講述了孩子帶給自己的歡欣和感動。令人想起卡朋特的那首經(jīng)典Close To You，孩子在母親眼中，確實如同上天派來的天使，純潔無暇，值得用一輩子好好呵護(hù)。



Artist：Sade
Song：The Sweetest Gift

Quietly while you were asleep
The moon and I were talking
I asked that she'd always keep you protected

She promised you her light
That you so gracefully carry
You bring your light and shine like morning

And then the wind pulls the clouds across the moon
Your light fills the darkest room
And I can see the miracle
That keeps us from falling

She promised all the sweetest gifts
That only the heaven's could bestow
You bring your light and shine like morning

And as you so gracefully give
Her light as long as you live
I'll always remember this moment
?
