Believe---兒子的歌

兒子的學校每年有個"瘋狂音樂會"(music madness)的活動,讓學生自由組隊報名,任何形式的音樂表演都可以,但是必須通過初選,才可以上台表演。
據兒子說,他早就有興趣,只是到今年才有勇氣邀請同學組隊參加。
他們輕易通過了初選,趁著上兩個禮拜的秋假,他們湊在同學家一起練習。
之所以輕易通過初選,因為他們表演的曲子是兒子自己作詞作曲,比較有特色。
同學們分頭配器樂:兒子自己彈鋼琴,其他有鼓、吉他、貝司(低音吉他)等等的。
有一天,他回來說,同學覺得歌詞有點"蠢",但他覺得來不及改了,很懊惱。
於是我們一起禱告,然後給了他一些提醒,就這樣,今天看見了他的新歌詞。是他重寫過給同學看,同學又稍加修改的,我覺得很有十六歲青少年的心境,也描繪出十一年級學生的情境。特地記錄下來:

BELIEVE
Verse 1
From all aver the world
We have already come
United together here; we are one.

Though the years have gone by,
We've been through many times,
Soon it will be time to say goodbye.

Pre-Chorus
Together we will go, to a place we've never known.
Just believe, and nothing will be impossible.

Chorus
Promise me no matter how high,
You will always reach for the sky
Thise wings of yours, were made to soar
And it will guide your way.

As we set out towards the stars
However hard it may seem
Give me your hand, and hold on tight,
Just believe in your wings and it will make a way.

Verse 2
How ling will this moment last?
When even time stands still.
I want this moment to last, for ever

How far is heaven from earth?
Can we get there someday?
Close your eyes and you will find your way
