這首歌連結了某些回憶
 
大二時候的運動會大會舞
哲學系是和心理系配對跳
 
兩個系的男生女生都是照著身高排隊
我遲到 排在隊伍的末端 
心理系一個高高的男生也遲到
我跟他就配成一對了
 
當時跳了兩首舞曲 兩支舞
一首是try to remember 
一首是音樂劇真善美裡面的Do Re Mi之歌
前者抒情浪漫 
後者輕快愉悅
 
舞步全忘了 
那時候不好意思 
抒情曲浪漫不起來 
輕快曲也歡樂不起來
只記得Do Re Mi之歌的最後一個音
男生要扶著女生的腰 女生手搭男生肩膀跳起來
 
練習的時候從沒搭肩
到運動會那天才搭著跳起來
跳很高 我記得還尖叫了一聲
 
 try to remember 
爸爸買的是四兄弟的黑膠唱片。
搬去台北時  他買了幾十萬的音響
聽這首歌的氛圍 我記憶猶新
 
去年 7月
聽到這追憶往日戀情的老歌
2月初再聽到 
是四兄弟唱的版本
感覺像回到台北家客廳 臨場感……
然後
我把手機放在爸爸旁邊 播這首歌
他好像被啟動什麼開關一樣 
紅了眼睛
 
爸爸早就不會說話了 
不過有些記憶的連結 仍深刻存在吧
跟善感惜情的我一樣
 
Try to Remember
Try to remember the kind of September
When life was slow and oh
so mellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
When grass was green and grain was yellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
When you were a tender and callow fellow.
Try to remember and if you remember
then follow
follow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
When no one wept except the willow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
When dreams were kept beside your pillow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
When love was an ember about to billow.
Try to remember and if you remember
then follow
follow.
Deep in December it's nice to remember
Although you know the snow will follow.
Deep in December it's nice to remember
Without a hurt the heart will hollow.
Deep in December
it's nice to remember
The fire of September that made you mellow.
Deep in December our hearts should remember and follow
follow.
