奥斯卡金曲：When You Believe - Hans Zimmer 《埃及王子》主题曲

第71届奥斯卡最佳歌曲，电影《埃及王子》主题曲，主唱：Michelle Pfieffer、Sally Dworsky

Yeah, it's the swing
Ooh, yeah, it's the swing
Every day is a saturday in the month of spring
Seems the world is full of girl looking out for that love thing
The hood's down, we're cruising¹ downtown
Just hanging with my friends
The radio's ready to blow
We're getting in that vibe again
Chorus²:
When your body keeps swaying³ side to side
Your spirit is free, it feels good to be alive
Oh, yeah, that's the swing
When you're happy to face the day with a smile,
Open your heart, let somebody inside
Oh, yeah, that's the swing

Everyone is having fun like a holiday, yeah
Plain to see she's the one for me
Don't need words to communicate
The music's loud, we're fooling around
Just getting in the groove⁴, yeah
The sun's out, a lot of people about
We're checking out the views
Repeat chorus
When your body keeps swaying side to side
Your spirit is free, it feels good to be alive
Oh, yeah, that's the swing
When you're happy to face the day with a smile,
Open your heart, let somebody inside
Oh, yeah, that's the swing
It's a kind of faith that you believe
Can you free your soul to fly?
Kind of hope that makes you see
Your dreams can come to life
Rap:
Here i am, and i'm gonna try to make you understand
About the things that i'm feeling
'cause the swing has got me reeling
Try thinking about the things that make you happy
And keep your dreams alive, 'cause people, this is how it can be
When you think that we're hanging and we're doing bad
Or we're just feeling things you never felt and never had
'cause when you wake up in the morning and your soul is singing,
That's when you're swinging
When your body keeps swaying side to side
Your spirit is free, it feels good to be alive
Oh, yeah, that's the swing
When you're happy to face the day with a smile,
Open your heart, let somebody inside
that's the swing
End
Mickey
