推荐几首Jewel 的歌

听的音乐很杂，多数是亚洲的，西方的比较少。
而对英文歌曲的记忆多数是曲子和歌名，对歌手反而很少记得，除了一些特别流行的。
Jewel 是个少数因为听了她的歌而去记她的名字的女歌手，声音也许不是最特别，但很有味道，也很有自己的风格。

她的专辑有很多，我也没有一一听过，就推荐几首最近听的吧：

The Shape of You - Jewel  
（这首是珠儿最近一张专辑里的歌，也是我最近很喜欢听的歌，一个人时听，有种安静的感觉。）



September sad and softly
Leaves are starting to fall
I recall, last time you were here
Your laughter a melody that lingers still
There's a hole in my heart and I'll carry it wherever I go
Like a treasure that travels with me down every road
There's this longing lonesome ending kind of bitter, kind of sweet
There's a hole in my heart in the shape of you

Time stealing swiftly
Children having children of their own
And around life's merry-go round goes
And there you are wanting what you cannot hold
There's a hole in my heart and I'll carry it wherever I go
Like a treasure that travels with me down every road
There's this longing lonesome ending kind of bitter, kind of sweet
There's a hole in my heart in the shape of you

Even though my heart aches
There's a smile on my face
Just like a window to heaven
There's a light shining through
This hole in my heart and so I'll carry it wherever I go
Like a treasure that travels with me down every road
There's this longing lonesome ending kind of bitter, kind of sweet
There's a hole in my heart
There's a hole in my heart
There's a hole in my heart in the shape of you


Satisfied - Jewel   （挺舒服的一首歌，歌词也有点意思。）



if you love somebody you better let it out
don't hold it back
while you're trying to figure it out
don't be timid don't be afraid to hurt
run toward the flame run toward the fire
hold on for all your worth
cause the only real pain a heart can never know
is the sorrow of regret when you don't hurt your feelings show

so did you say it
did you mean it
did you lay it on the line
did you make it count
did you look i'm in the eye
did they feel it
did you say it in time
did you say it out loud
cause if you did hun
then you lived some
that feeling inside that is called satisfied

busy people walking by
can't help but worry some
so many things to do
so little love gets done
empty hearts everywhere
drowning but dying of thirst
if you want love
it's not that tough
start by giving it first
it's so easy to give
baby can't you see
just close your eyes open your heart
and do what comes naturally

so did you say it
did you mean it
did you lay it on the line
did you make it count
did you look i'm in the eye
did they feel it
did you say it in time
did you say it out loud
cause if you did hun
then you lived some that feeling inside  that is called satisfied

horses are built to run
the sun is meant to shine above
flowers are made to bloom
and then there us
we were born to love
we were born to love
so did you say it
did you mean it
did you lay it on the line
did you make it count
did you look i'm in the eye
did they feel it
did you say it in time
did you say it out loud
because if you did hun
then you lived some that feeling inside  that is called satisfied


Hands - Jewel   
（这是在看一个关于公益的视频的时候听到的背景音乐，找不到那个版本的，这个貌似是现场版的。歌词比较有意义。）



If I could tell the world just one thing
It would be that we're all OK
And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful
And useless in times like these
I won't be made useless
I won't be idle with despair
I will gather myself around my faith
For light does the darkness most fear

My hands are small, I know
But they're not yours, they are my own
But they're not yours, they are my own
And I am never broken

Poverty stole your golden shoes
But it didn't steal your laughter
And heartache came to visit me
But I knew it wasn't ever after

We'll fight, not out of spite
For someone must stand up for what's right
'Cause where there's a man who has no voice
There ours shall go singing

My hands are small I know
But they're not yours, they are my own
But they're not yours, they are my own
And I am never broken

In the end only kindness matters
In the end only kindness matters
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray


Stand - Jewel （这首歌风格比较不一样，可能很多人听到过，貌似以前有些非主流空间可能用到过。）



Walk in a corner shop
See a shoplifting cop
See the old lady with a gun
See the hero try 2 run
Nothing's what it seems, I mean
It's not all dirty, but it's not all clean
There's children paying bills
There's monks buying thrills
There's pride for sale in magazines
There's pills for rent 2 make u clean
Marvin Gaye, there's no brother, brother
Woody Guthrie's land can't feed Mother

Mothers weep, children sleep
So much violence ends in silence
It's a shame there's no one 2 blame
For all the pain that life brings
If u will just take me It might just complete me
And together we can make a stand

A waitress brings me lunch
We meet but do not touch
On TV, D.C. is selling lies
While in the corner, King's dream dies
Go 2 the counter, pay for me and my friend
A homeless man pulls out a roll, says it's on him
The mayor has no cash
He said he spent it on hookers and hash
......

U will love me, I will love u
