让阳光照进来

在各种文艺作品中，“雨”常常会与失意、低落的情绪联系在一起。无论是细雨蒙蒙还是大雨倾盆，我们都不想让它一直下个不停，心里期盼着能早一点雨过天晴。瑞典流行摇滚组合Roxette的经典歌曲Queen of Rain中也借用“雨”的意象，描写了一位忧郁得像雨一样的女子——“忧郁皇后”。这位女子生活在自己的世界里，不敢去爱，不敢享受生活的快乐，心中充满了恐惧与忧虑。或许，这一切都是因为她害怕失去。她不想走出自己的小世界，也不想让别人走进自己的内心，对于别人的示好从不积极回应。歌者的一句“dream about the sun you queen of rain”正是唱给这位女子听的，也是唱给所有听众的。歌者想说的是，即使现实生活中有欺骗、失败和丑陋，我们也不必因此而固守在自己的小世界里。失败其实没有什么，时间会让所有的伤痛化成遥远的回忆，所以我们要大胆接受生活的好与不好，敢于追求自己想要的幸福。

歌曲Queen of Rain的旋律荡气回肠，女主唱Marie Fredriksson大气深情的演唱使整首歌听起来唯美而动人，歌词本身也值得细细品味。光阴飞逝，懂得放下，懂得走出自己的小世界，才会有崭新的开始，请让我们时时记住“dream about the sun”。

Queen of Rain

In that big big house there are fifty doors

And one of them leads to your heart

In the time of spring I passed your gate

And tried to make a start

All I knew was the scent of sea and dew

But I’ve been in love before， how about you

There’s a time for the good in life

A time to kill the pain in life

Dream about the sun you queen of rain

In that big old house there are fifty beds

And one of them leads to your soul

It’s a bed of fear， a bed of threats， regrets

And sheets so cold

All I knew your eyes so velvet blue

I’ve been in love before， how about you

（Refrain ）

It’s time to place your bets in life

I’ve played the loser’s game of life

Dream about the sun you queen of rain

Time went by as I wrote your name in the sky

Fly， fly away

Bye bye

It’s time to place your bets in life

I’ve played the loser’s game of life

Dream about the sun you queen of rain
