Sweater Weather
by The Neighborhood
I don't mind if there's not much to say
Sometimes the silence guides your mind (1)
So move to a place so far away
The goosebumps start to race (2)
The minute that my left hand meets your waist
…
These hearts adore (3), everyone the other beats hardest for
Inside this place is warm
Outside it starts to pour
(1) “guide”(引導)是具體的行為,但此處以“silence”(沈默)作為主詞,讓無形的概念更加具象化
(2) “race”(奔跑)是人才會有的動作,但此處的主詞是 “goosebumps”(雞皮疙瘩),加強了「起雞皮疙瘩」的意象。
(3) “adore”(愛慕)同樣也是人才會有的行為,不過以“hearts”(心)當作主詞,更能表現兩人戀愛的情愫。
