這是一首簡單明快,卻觸動我心弦的歌曲。
  Death Cab for Cutie的歌曲大抵如此,主要歸功於Ben Gibbard(主唱、吉他)的詞曲創作才華。收錄在《Plans》中的I Will Follow You Into The Dark更是傑作,柔美旋律和歌詞的意境都縈繞在心頭。
  描繪「殉情」這一概念的歌曲相當多,且大多強烈激情,反而不如這首輕淡的描述來得真摯動人,帶著溫柔的愛。YouTube上的網友評論,都對歌詞的描述讚賞不已,美麗、哀傷、感動,是多數人的共同感受。「親愛的,有天你會死去,但我會緊跟著你,隨你走入黑暗中。」「如果沒有他人在你身旁,當你靈魂啟程時,我會隨你走入黑暗。」這幾句深深寫入我心坎的歌詞,讓我一聽再聽,歌詞簡單能迅速上口,自然跟著唱了起來。這首的MV也是,樸素的手繪書,訴說著一樣動人的故事。









【歌詞】 
Love of mine
Someday you will die
But I'll be close behind
I'll follow you into the dark
No blinding light
Or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark

If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied
And illuminate the "No"s
On their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

In catholic school
As vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles bruised
By a lady in black
And I held my tongue
As she told me, "Son,
Fear is the heart of love"
So I never went back

You and me
Have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary
And the soles of your shoes
Are all worn down
The time for sleep is now
But it's nothing to cry about
Because we'll hold each other soon
In the blackest of rooms





  (雖說這是首溫柔的情歌,唱起來有著深深的愛,但若你愛的人對你唱這首歌,大概會毛骨悚然;「拜託你還是自己好好活著吧!」)
