Little Green

最近在聽Joni MitChell，尤其這首Little Green。

她是６０年代當紅的加拿大女歌手，音質干淨，才華洋溢，寫歌，畫畫，也寫詩，曾登上Time雜誌封面。年輕時未婚生子，卻無力撫養，只好將孩子送人，在思念這孩子的時候，她寫下了Little Green這首歌，一直等到她６０幾歲時，才有機會和女兒重逢。聲音里都是愛與傷痛，聽地我的心都溶化了。

Born with the moon in cancer
Choose her a name she will answer to
Call her green and the winters cannot fade her
Call her green for the children whove made her
Little green, be a gypsy dancer

He went to california
Hearing that everythings warmer there
So you write him a letter and say, her eyes are blue.
He sends you a poem and shes lost to you
Little green, hes a non-conformer

Ch0rus:

Just a little green
Like the color when the spring is born
Therell be crocuses to bring to school tomorrow
Just a little green
Like the nights when the northern lights perform
Therell be icicles and birthday clothes
And sometimes therell be sorrow

Child with a child pretending
Weary of lies you are sending home
So you sign all the papers in the family name
Youre sad and youre sorry, but youre not ashamed
Little green, have a happy ending
