1.如果我能留住彩虹,
2.我将只为你一个人挽留,
3.在你感到忧伤的日子,
4.与你分享它的美丽。
5.如果我能建造大山,
6.你尽可把它当成你自己的,
7.体验宁静的空间,
8.独处的地方。
9.如果我能带走你的烦恼,
10.我会把它们通通扔进大海,
11.然而我发现所有这些事情,
12.我都无能为力。
13.我建不成一座大山,
14.也留不住彩虹的美丽,
15.就让我做你最好的朋友吧,
16.永远与你相伴。

1.从前,一只圆圈缺了一块楔子。它想保持完整,便四处寻找那块楔子。由于不完整,所以它只能慢慢地滚动。一路上,它对花儿露出羡慕之色。它与蠕虫谈天侃地。它还欣赏到了阳光之美。圆圈找到了许多不同的楔子,但没有一件与它相配。所以,它将它们统统弃置路旁,继续寻觅。终于有一天,它找到了一个完美的配件。圆圈是那样地高兴,现在它可以说是完美无缺了。它装好配件,并开始滚动起来。现在它已成了一个完美的圆圈,所以滚动得非常快,以至于难以观赏花儿,也无暇与蠕虫倾诉心声。当圆圈意识到因快奔急骋使它失去了原有的世界时,它不禁停了下来,将找到的配件弃置路旁,又开始慢慢地滚动。
2.我觉得这个故事告诉我们,从某种奇妙的意义上讲,当我们失去了一些东西时反而更加完整。一个拥有一切的人其实在某些方面是个穷人。他永远也体会不到什么是渴望、期待及如何用美好梦想滋养自己的灵魂。他也永远不会有这样一种体验:一个爱他的人送给他某种他梦寐以求的或者从未拥有过的东西意味着什么。
