电影歌曲:The Way We Were 《往日情怀》同名电影主题

（单词翻译）

The Way¹ We Were 《往日情怀》同名电影主题曲

《回首当年》（The Way We Were）根据阿琴．劳伦茨的小说改编，是好莱坞出品的爱情片中少数具有浓厚政治意味的作品，也是当时具有知识分子味道影片中的代表作。背景为美国50年代美苏冷战时期，剧情描写芭芭拉．史翠珊 （Barbra Streisand）和罗伯特．雷德福（Robert Redford）两位男女主人公，一个是在校担任青年政党联盟主席，另一个是热衷运动和写作的才子，他们在大学校园相识，而到相知相爱，最后却因为彼此间个性和政治立场的差异而分手。历经多年后两人再次重逢，回首往事，不胜感慨。悉尼．波拉克（Sydney Pollack）在执导该片时，着重提升影片的思想性，巧妙地把时代气氛与个人冲突加以揉合，欣赏起来也颇有回肠荡气之感。

 影片的主题歌“往日情怀”(The Way We Were)，由配乐人马文．汉姆利胥(Marvin Hamlisch)谱写音乐部分，著名的夫妻档作词人艾伦．伯格曼(Alan Bergman)负责填词，曾荣获最佳原作配乐与最佳歌曲两项金像奖，1973更勇夺年葛莱美奖年度最佳歌曲的殊荣。芭芭拉．史翠珊以吟唱的方式演绎这首除却巫山不是云的抒情歌曲，一如电影的主题一样充满伤感、怀旧和无奈。在这样的歌声里，你的忧伤可以彻底释放和排遣。此曲属于她在个人演唱会上必唱的经典金曲。

Memories light the corners of my mind

Misty water colour memories

Of the way we were

Picture of the smile we left behind

Smiles we gave to one another

For the way we were

Can it be that it was all so simple then

Or has times rewritten every line

If we had the chance to do it all again

Tell me would we could we

Memories maybe beautiful and yet

What's too painful to remember

We simply choose to forget

So it's the laughter

We will remember

Whenever we remember

The way we were 

Memories maybe beautiful and yet

What's too painful to remember

We simply choose to forget

So it's the laughters

We will remember

Whenever we remember

The way we were

The way we were
