Sleepthief - You Did a Good Thing (ft. Nicola Hitchcock)I'm still here
She was your childhood friend
All of your heart you gave her
And though the times have changed her
She'll always be home
(Chorus)
Losing yourselves, you did a good thing
Truth never hurt, you did a good thing
In spite of yourselves, you did a good thing
Truth will be told, you did a good thing
I'm still here
She was your childhood sweetheart
(so understand)
All of this trouble you feel
(time can't take her from you)
The time won't take her from you
She'll always be home
(Repeat Chorus)
You did a good, good thing
And I'll miss you for the longest time
Our lovely view was the best I've known
Tears on my face have fallen so,
so long there can be no harder way
歌詞寫得不錯，
說的是女方(正室?)對男方跟第三者的控訴，
男方辯稱第三者是他的青梅竹馬、他自己也覺得很困擾 = =
女方幽幽地訴說著對他的愛意，
一句句「You did a good thing」也諷刺他與第三者的殘忍虛偽。
從2分40秒至3分10秒，
孤伶伶的幾下琴音，像心碎裂四散那一瞬間的景象，
然後不該看到的一幕不斷在腦海迴盪、重播、形成烙印......
所有心碎過的人，大概也曾經聽到那種一輩子也忘不了的聲音？

當《You did a good thing》的音樂，
遇上《Tenuous》的歌詞：
C'est un silence de l'eau douce
Qui recouvre la nuit
Je frissonne quand elle se couche
A l l'ombre de la lune
Plonger dans un sous-marin
Reveiller les marchands de sable
Oublier les couleurs du matin
Pour aller te chercher
(Chorus)
Entre ciel et mer
Je tangue
Entre ciel et mer
Je danse
Entre ciel et mer (sur la vague, sous la vague)
Je tangue (pour aller te chercher tout la bas)
Entre ciel et mer
Je t'attends...
Comme une epave immobile
Je me souviens enfin
De ton visage invisible
Je me souviens enfin
Plonger dans un sous-marin
Reveiller les marchands de sable
Oublier les couleurs du matin
Pour aller te chercher
It's silent on the gentle waters
Which brings the night
I shiver when the world sleeps
The shade of the moon
(chorus)
Dive deep, in a submarine
Awake the Sandman
Forget the colours of morning
To come, to come and find you
Between the sky and sea, I float
Between the sky and sea, I dance
Between the sky and sea, I float
Between the sky and sea, I wait for you
Like am immovable wreck I remember at last
Your invisible face I remember at last
(chorus)
