繆斯第一季

I scoured the northern shores for you. I plunged deep oceans. I searched the earth.I climbed mountains for a clearer view.And then, I found you.
Legend has it that if a human man falls in love with a mermaid, she will grow legs. Legs that will, if she so desires, carry her far, far away from the very man she cast her watery spell upon.
But I ask you this: What becomes of the human man? What becomes of him when her spell remains, but she has gone?

這首歌曲是由女作曲家Carrie Minetta Jacobs-Bond（1862-1946）1909年于加利福尼亞州河濱市（Riverside, California）的一家名叫米申酒店（Mission Inn）的教會酒店中所作。歌詞創作于一天黃昏她在位于4樓的酒店房間內欣賞日落時，而曲調則是三個月后漫步于莫哈韋沙漠（Mojave Desert）時所寫。這首歌隨后成為了她銷量最好的一首歌，經翻唱、演繹無數，而米申酒店的鐘琴也年復一年，每晚演奏這首歌曲。
原曲歌詞如下：
?A Perfect Day?
When you come to the end of a Perfect Day
當完美的一天將盡時
And you sit alone with your thought
你孑然獨坐陷入沉思
While the chimes ring out with a carol gay
當鐘聲如頌歌般歡快響起
For the joy that the day has brought
只因這完美之日帶來的快樂
Do you think what the end of a Perfect Day
你可曾想過完美的一日將盡時
Can mean to a tired heart
對于一顆倦怠的心意味著什么
When the sun goes down with a flaming ray
當日落西沉，晚霞如焰

繆斯: “當她已離去，而魔咒尚存”
