【歌曲簡介】

何時?如何?為何?在人生航行中，我們總被這些無解之問困住腳步。但當我凝望月亮，便想起她也有陰晴圓缺;看見花朵以不同節奏綻放;發現四季因差異而各具特色。大自然用多元化自然生態的美去撫慰我們，告訴我們，萬物有時;自然地存在就可以了。或許我們也能相信自己的旅程、自己的節奏與獨一無二的存在。

“Midnight Bloom (feat Nature)” 是與由音樂製作傳奇 Brian Eno創立的國際非營利組織 EarthPercent 旗下的計畫「SoundsRight」合作推出的。此計畫首次將「大自然」在音樂平台上列為「藝人」，讓世界各地歌手可以與「它」合作，透過在歌曲裡feature自然環境的聲音，讓「大自然」跟歌手一樣可以從串流平台收版稅，為環境保育籌募資金。

對我來說，大自然是位智者，也有偉大治癒之力。「櫻梅桃李」的創作靈感也來自大自然的安慰，所以產生了希望這首作品能回饋予滋養地球多彩生命的念頭。很榮幸與SoundsRight合作，以藝術助力生態保育這項創新計劃。

感謝監製蔡德才和編曲人Soni和Wing支持這個remix，用心把大自然聲音融入這個版本。歌曲裡收錄了從陸地到天空至海洋的自然之聲，囊括萬千生靈的絮語。
Midnight Bloom跟「櫻梅桃李」一樣，繼續有特別錄制的音頻治療樂器風鈴。

希望這首歌能如自然於我一般，為聽者注入能量。願你我都能找到綻放的時間和空間。

【歌詞】

It’s a new year, do you feel a difference?
I’m not sure that I do
Sun’s shining through but my heart’s confused
I don’t know how to bloom
And there’s a season for change
A season to spread your wings
A time for falling apart
There’s a time for everything
Think too much try to take all control
Unnatural
Can’t help but wonder if someday or one day the moment will show

In the flow of time
Sometimes it feels I’m left behind
I’m chasing the light, when will time be right?

I ask the moon, how soon?
She said, baby you’re a midnight bloom
I ask the moon, how soon?
She said, what you rushing for? There’s so much more

So I’ll dance out in the dark
Be still my heart, becoming is an art If life is but a dream, maybe
I just need someone to believe Believe in a better me

If I take my time
Tell me I’ll be fine
If you take your time
I know you’ll be fine

We go wherever we go, go fast or go slow
In time I’ll find the reason
The love in every season
Nothing ever stays just the same, isn’t that great?
Just take it day by day breath by breath keep your pace it’ll be okay

Will the stars align?
Sometimes it all starts in the mind I’m feeling alright in a different light

I ask the moon, how soon?
She said, baby you’re a midnight bloom
I ask the moon, how soon?
She said, is there something more you’re waiting for?

So I’ll dance out in the dark
Be still my heart, becoming is an art
If life is but a dream, maybe
I’ll learn to love the in-between

A rhythm of the moon
(No forever bloom)

A rhythm true to you
(We are not the same)

A rhythm true to me
(It’s meant to be, in the heartbeat)

We wanna have our time
(Can’t we all shine bright?)
We wanna feel alright
(Will do anything)
We’re children of the light
(Some of the day, some of the night)

Maybe I’m a midnight bloom

If I take my time
Tell me I’ll be fine
If you take your time
I know you’ll be fine

In the unknown
Find space to grow
Let go
Let the petals unfold
