一向认为东方民歌软绵绵，不料索菲娅·格林带给我们的冲击是如此强烈，方知心灵享受不必全是温吞鸡汤，薄荷加冰或者极地伏特加也是不错的选择。东西方之间是有鸿沟的，至少在音乐上、在女人的演绎上。但索菲娅的美声跨越了鸿沟。她那水晶般透明而纯净的声音，高亢而耐听地把中国最传统最阴柔的靡靡之音化作了划破长天的剑器之鸣。想想看，豪唱大江东去的壮美竟然来自于《甜蜜蜜》、《阿里山的姑娘》、《女人花》……这样的歌曲中，真是叹为观止。第一位签约内地的西方歌手，第一次出唱片选取了最为人熟知的曲目，但却是以最另类的手法演绎，令人在偶然的聆听中驻足、神往并最终收藏为快。值得称许的是英文歌词译得非常好，韵律简洁，由索菲娅清朗的唱腔中流出，字字可辨，对照自己熟悉的中文原词，亦一乐也

歌词完整版：

Early Morning

early morning when the sun is rising

i watch you when you still are in your sleep

teacups still waiting on the breakfast table

that's not a reason good enogh to wake you

early morning when the day is dawning

i lay beside you listening to your heartbeat

i fell so happy when i'm thingking of you

to have you close to me and around me

one day will come when the dream is over

before that day i will not keep from dreaming

one day will come when the day's getting colder

i think of you and your love will surround me

show me your heart and i will give your mine

show me your tears and i will kiss them all away

show me the one thing that i really need

show me your love and never take it away

early morning and the sun is up now

i cross the room and open up the door

teacups still waiting on the breakfast table

and i still waiting my love to wake up

early morning and i greet the sunlight

it's so beautiful it spreads over fields now

all around me the sunlight is now flowing

i see the beauty in the day as it's dawning

if i could live here without days of wonder

if i could live here when it's calm and peaceful

i guess i'd stay here till the end of lifetime

if i can say goodbey to the queen of sorrow

show me your heart and i will give your mine

show me your tears and i will kiss them all away

show me the one thing that i really need

show me your love and never take it away
