[lyrics] Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round The Old Oak Tree

　　I'm coming home. I've done my time
　　Now I got to know what is and isn't mine
　　If you received my letter telling you I'd soon be free
　　Then you'll know just what to do
　　If you still want me, If you still want me

　　Oh! tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree
　　It's been three long years, do you still want me
　　If I don't see your ribbon round the old oak tree
　　I'll stay on the bus, forget about us
　　Put the blame on me
　　If I don't see your yellow ribbon round the old oak tree

　　Bus driver please look for me
　　"cause I couldn't bear to see what I might see
　　I'm really still in prison, and my love she holds the key
　　A simple yellow ribbon's what I need to set me free
　　I wrote and told her please

　　Oh! tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree
　　It's been three long years, do you still want me
　　If I don't see your ribbon round the old oak tree
　　I'll stay on the bus, forget about us
　　Put the blame on me
　　If I don't see your yellow ribbon round the old oak tree

　　Now the whole damn bus is cheering
　　And I can't believe I see
　　A hundred yellow ribbons round the old oak tree
　　I coming home

　　Tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree
　　Tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree
　　Tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree
　　Tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree

　　這首歌是Tony Orlando & Dawn(東尼奧蘭多與黎明合唱團)最為人所熟知的歌曲，甚至在我那個年代(連"那個年代"都用上了= =")的遠東版英文課本，有一課甚至是直接拿這首歌來作一篇文章呢！但不可置否的，這首歌真的夠經典，猶記得那個時候的段考前，有考到這一課，晚上留下來夜自習，一邊唸這篇課文，一邊對照著老師白天發的歌詞，腦中也充滿著白天老師課堂上放這首歌的旋律，不知不覺的走到走廊上面，一邊朗誦課文，一邊有同學在唱這首歌，那種感覺真的很棒^^。

　　那個時候輪我唱，他們唸課文，唱著唱著，鼻子也酸了，但我自己也不懂為什麼，或許是我這學期修的那門通識課"音樂的語言"郭老師說的：音樂的力量。嗯，應該就是音樂的力量！但總覺得應該還有別的東西在裡面，算了，那不重要。

　　今天當我再度聽這首歌的時候，感覺又不同於第一次聽到這首歌的時候，但不減的仍是當初那份感動。
