Dec 22, 2006 香港午夜特快 之 加州梦想

Looks familiar?
Yes, this is the bar in the famous Hong Kong movie -"Chung King Express"
At this little coffee shop, Faye, the waitress, keeps playing "California Dreaming" outrageously loud，while the cop 663 keep ordering Chef Salad for his airline hostess girlfriend...
Until one day, he changes his mind...actually fish & chips is not bad at all...

再有二十个小时就要去加州了
幻想着金门大桥上笼罩的晨雾
加州中部的蜿蜒海岸线
北边纳帕谷地的葡萄陈酿
和三番斜斜坡上的有轨电车
吱嘎吱嘎的滑向海湾...

十年前看的“重庆森林”
曾经很迷恋中环扶梯
发霉的旧旧唐楼
抬头看到夹在高楼中窄窄的天空
和街市大排挡的一盘叉烧饭，加点通菜

反反复复听The Mamas and The Papas
之加州梦想
旋律盘旋
自己也洗脑般的
在雨天时候
幻想着
明媚的加州阳光


California Dreaming~
The Mamas and The Papas

All the leaves are brown
And the sky is gray
I've been for a walk
On a winter's day
I'd be safe and warm
If I was in L.A.

California dreamin'
On such a winter's day
Stepped into a church
I passed along the way
Oh, I got down on my knees
And I pretend to pray

You know the preacher likes the cold
He knows I'm gonna stay
California dreamin'
On such a winter's day

All the leaves are brown
And the sky is gray
I've been for a walk
On a winter's day
If I didnt tell her
I could leave today

California dreamin'
On such a winter's day
(California dreamin')
On such a winter's day
(California dreamin')
On such a winter's day
