M's Sound Life

映画『Dreamgirls』でDiana Ross役のBeyonceがソロデビューしてどんどんスターになっていくシーンの曲。Beyonceが美しくなっていくプロセスをバックに熱唱する姿は素敵、まさにAmerican Beauty。この映画の一番の山場。…のはずなんだけど、その前までのJennifer Hudsonの歌いっぷりに、何度も鳥肌がたったので、Beyonceがちょっと霞んでしまった印象。とてもいい歌なのは間違いないです。

Verse 1
Listen
To the song here in my heart
A melody I’ve start but can’t complete
Listen
To the sound from deep within
it’s only beginning to find release
Oh, the time has come
For my dreams to be heard
They will not be pushed
aside or turned
Into your own, all ’cause
you won’t listen

Chorus
Listen
I am alone at a crossroads
I’m not at home in my own home
And I’ve tried and tried
To say what’s on my mind
You should have known oh

Oh, now I’m done believing you
You don’t know what I’m feeling
I’m more than what you made of me
I’ve found the voice you gave to me
But now I’ve got to find my own

Verse 2
You should have listened
There is someone here inside
Someone I thought had died so long ago
i’m screaming out
And my dreams will be heard

They will not be pushed aside or worse
Into your own, all ’cause
you won’t listen

Chorus
Listen
I am alone at a crossroads
I’m not at home in my own home
And I’ve tried and tried
To say what’s on my mind
You should have known

Oh, now I’m done believing you
You don’t know what I’m feeling
I’m more than what you made of me
I’ve followed the voice you gave to me
But now I’ve got to find my own

Bridge
I don’t know where I belong
But I’ll be moving on
If you don’t, if you won’t oh
Listen
To the song here in my heart
A melody I start but I will complete

2nd part of Chorus
Oh, now I’m done believing you
You don’t know what I’m feeling
I’m more than what you made of me
I’ve followed the voice you
think you gave to me
But now I’ve got to find my own, my own
